weekly write up 6/23/2024
Jun. 23rd, 2024 12:49 pmanother week is finished.... tired
monday: i really wanted to get back on the meal prep thing for kyle, since i'm not working, might as well make myself useful? this was kyle's lazy bean bowl dinner lol.

so a lot of monday was spent on that, and cleaning. we are still fighting the fucking ant war and bruh i am TIRED lmao. i don't normally mind bugs, especially larger ones, but for some reason this year the ants are really setting me off and some parts of my skin have been very red and raw since i have the bad bug hallucinations......... therapist keeps saying this is very normal for bpd & ocd and not to worry over my mental state but idk. i dont like it lol. i also did a lot of writing! it's been hard for me to focus on One Fic lately which always tends to happen for a few weeks after finishing a big one thing, so this wasn't surprising.... plus i accumulatively slept maybe 15 hours ish for the entirety of last week, so that definitely didn't help....... i DID finish my first fic for seisub's tanabata fest, so that's exciting!
tuesday: pretty boring day. had therapy, which i. i'm not sure. i feel like it's going well but i also feel like it's very much NOT going well? i'm not sure. i might ask to take a few weeks off to reassess. but maybe that's counterproductive?? i've gotta think on it. anyways, more writing, more digimon cyber sleuth. this was ALSO the start of the disgusting heat wave we had in boston, which was a miserable affair lmao. i'm fine with upper 80s. i'm NOT fine with upper 90s and above 50% humidity LOL. thankfully kyle put the a/cs in for me so i didn't burn to a crisp... tuesday was also orv webtoon release day, so volume 3 came in the mail! of which i forgot to take a picture. i'm still terrified of how many volumes it'll end up considering how LITTLE they're putting in the releases.... anyways. bc of the heat, jorie came over, which was fine - her apartment doesn't have a/c right now, so i was happy to do that lol. this was a weird day in general bc i got like 4 hours of sleep, it was 1 million degrees out, and then 911 went DOWN statewide for a few hours??? talk about a terrifying notification to receive lmfao.
wednesday: another boring day lol. another HOT day. god it was so gross. felt like 100 most of the day. my writing brain was a bit fried, so i mostly played cyber sleuth & read fic all day. kyle was helping a friend build their pc on facetime most of the evening, which was kind of fun. i've also been doing all my meal prep at 2am ish which i've honestly really enjoyed lol. unfortunately it comes with the terrible consequence of not being able to sleep at a reasonable hour... when i finally fell asleep it was 4:30 according to pokemon sleep.....so yikes..... though he liked his meal, i thought it came out well:

thursday: jason is in scotland this week, so while i'm very happy for him, kyle and i were pretty thrown off lol. however i DID catch two shiny squirtle in pokemon sleep so that was nice:

but today was kind of? not great? i started feeling pretty crappy physically in the evening and got like wicked dizzy. i didn't start cooking kyle's meal until almost 3am because of it, and i only ate dinner at almost midnight myself bc i wasn't sure how i would handle food. i did make myself some boxed curry which stayed down so there was that, at least. boxed curry with soy protein my beloved:

but yeah thursday kind of sucked lmao between the excessive heat, not feeling great, and no jason :(
friday: mmm friday. most of the day was great! i finished my second tanabata fest fic, which is good! and it was both the solstice and the strawberry full moon, which i didn't get to fully appreciate because of thunderstorms, but that was a worthy sacrifice lol. but i'd recently gotten a new tarot deck - orv themed! - and i had been sleeping with it under my pillow for a few to get it used to my energy. i'm no longer a practicing wiccan, but when it comes to divination i still do the spiritual practices i used to haha. so i decided in honor of the full moon & solstice, i should do a test reading, which got me a very warm spread:

i think the deck has too much faith in my ability to choose correctly with my emotions lol. but regardless, i put it on the window with my yugioh tarot deck and some crystals to soak in some energy:

lapis lazuli for the new deck - i was always water-based in my energy, and it's also my favorite stone ever (hence why my wedding ring is lapis!), so i thought that was a good introduction to me for it. rose quartz on the older deck, as a reminder i still love it too. unfortunately the evening took a nose dive when i had a stupid anger breakdown...... we had to leave early the next morning so it kinda sucked not getting to sleep until almost 3am, but what can you do (besides be a better person)
saturday: the day started off... not great, because of my aforementioned breakdown. we still left, albeit a bit late, and the first half of the car ride was pretty miserable..... mostly my fault lmao. but we managed to pull it together once we arrived at the natick mall. we were meeting up with will for level 99? which is kinda like. boda borg?? they call it a recreation center but idk how to describe it. there are rooms you can go into with friends and those rooms are puzzles with different themes/ways to accomplish them. some are more mental, some are more physical, some rely on teamwork. outside of the rooms are other kind of mini game challenges, like dodgeball, or running through a line of swinging axes (plastic and very fake LOL). they've also got a bar, and a whole restaurant. the puzzles were a lot of fun; all different kinds of themes. i think my favorite was one that was like twister, but you had to hold buttons that lit up, which i was very good at with my stupid flexibility lol. a few others i really liked was one where you had to "fill up" these fuel batteries by connecting the power supply to the colors it was flashing, which was REALLY fun lol, also one where you had to sneak through a hallway to "steal" a painting and avoid the security lasers, and this one i did not expect to be good at where you had to run across a "plank" on the "water" that was shifting like crazy but we got the 3 stars on it!! all in all a very very fun time. the food was also a banger, too? their vegetarian & vegan options were actual food lol.


i also finished cyber sleuth once we got home! it was a delightful game, honestly. nothing revolutionary plot-wise, but i really really enjoyed the digimon raising mechanics & battle. i of course had magnadramon, ophanimon, kerpymon & kerpymon (evil) as my main friends lol, but i grew unexpectedly attached to ouryumon? love that guy now.
sunday: and now we're here! it's my dad's birthday today, and since i'm working he stopped by for lunch and i got to give him a card. it was good to see him, but he's exhausted. i hope he's getting some rest lol. i woke up late today and had to rush out the door to get here, which is never fun lol. i don't expect the rest of the day to be too crazy... just gonna finish some editing, get some writing done, and start on my KH replay most likely now that i have the collection on steam!
last week's goals? well, i beat cyber sleuth and finished two fics! so the more important of the goals were met! lmao. i did not organize my closet... which i really need to.... both of them. orz. they're both so messy. i. really need to stop putting it off. woof.
hopes for next week:
