Well, we’re actually rural, but *anyways*. Today has been me strong-arming myself into getting some of the laundry processed… it was getting fairly dire, heh. That still requires eventually like, folding shit… but at least if it’s clean, we can pick from the pile. Past that, just been feeling a bit run down. I’m full of snot and feeling a… Read more »

Today’s picture comes compliments of Z, who had gone upstairs and spotted Batman lolling in a sunbeam. I mean, who can resist a cat doing this? Not anyone I know. And at least someone got some sun! Today has been windy and a bit chilly. I just found out how chilly; there’s a decent chance of snow this evening reputedly…. Read more »

When I came down this morning, I found Batman sitting on the couch, staring at me. He kept this up for long minutes, meaning I was probably supposed to follow him to his food bowl… to find it full, requiring me to yell at him that it’s full. Yeah, it’s a regular thing here, and probably in any house containing… Read more »

Aww yiss, coming to you live from MiL’s house post-dinner. She decided to do a beef joint, which she promptly regretted *after* buying; she was convinced that she couldn’t actually do beef. But she did! And it was good! And there’s enough to take home for a curry! Exclamation points!! Past that, not a lot. Been killing mobs, and vaguely… Read more »

Okay so like, realtalk. I don’t take knitting commissions. I did one, and I decided to let the purchaser decide to top up above a very very very nominal fee, and got like, pretty much nothing. So when a friend messaged me the other day asking if I’d consider this… well, it was one of the very few people on… Read more »

I was rather bemused when I spotted this daffodil on my walk earlier. It looked almost as if it had been pressed in a book, rather than trampled by passersby. I mean, maybe it had? I didn’t spot any other daffodils in close proximity, though they *are* a bit all over this time of year. Who knows. Been an alright… Read more »

Spring is sneakin’ up in the grass with these little beauties. I haven’t seen them in the grass around my house before, so yanno, woo? Woo. Also woo — four day weekend! I’ve got stuff to make, things to yarn, games to play. Smaller really wants to play some Diablo 3 with me. I am going to suggest to her that… Read more »

Is there such a thing as the perfect messy bun on accident, or is it secretly always carefully coifed? This one was on accident and looked like an exemplary example, so ymmv. Whatever the case, it’s been really warm today, so having it up and up was important. It’s supposed to start cooling back down tomorrow, so like… it wasn’t… Read more »

And finally, it’s Evil Genius day! Z and I are both cheerfully working through the tutorial, which is comprehensive and lots of fun. Even having played the original game a million times, having this to guide me in is appreciated. Less appreciated is my attention flitting off for a second, costing me my Hardcore character in Diablo 3. I’d gotten her… Read more »

Well okay, actually Nephalem, but aaaanyways. But so much grinding. Firstly, I thought about it this morning, and offered to finish running Z’s character through story mode. He realised last night that he hadn’t completed story mode, so couldn’t do adventure mode stuff, so. I wanted to play, it gave me something to do for a few hours. Apparently, wasn’t… Read more »
