Gaming Fandom Big Bang

So this morning I went for my blood test, which was annoying in that the usual place was closed without notice (there's only ever one person there so I'mma guess they called in sick or something of the sort, presumably? they'd have someone to cover if it was planned??), so I went to the one across the road. Which was fine, no dramas, but I was pretty hungry when I woke up, and the combo of exercise + blood loss before eating meant I felt like shit.

So I came home and ate and ended up sleeping until mid-afternoon even though I'd gone to the trouble of getting up early and putting washing on before I left, siiiigh. Also, still feeling kinda off two meals and more than twelve hours later, which isn't super great (though I'm also tired which doesn't help either).

Still, it got done, and I did do SOME work on the cat run this afternoon, though unfortunately not as much as I wanted. But progress is progress, so there's that!

Also did a bit of work on the coding project, though not as much as I'd hoped there either, not enough brain. Plus I need to get to bed at a time where I'll actually wake up in the morning, 'cause Mama and me are going on a field trip tomorrow! :3 :3 :3

I've got no frickin' idea. Azy, who knows way more about maths than me, also doesn't know. Possibly the answer is on wiki or something but it's nice to just noodle about a mystery for a while, too. Gives your thinkmeats some exercise.

Anyway, today I did things! ( Shopping, cat run maintenance, tidying, project )

Anyway now I should REALLY be going to bed whoops. >>;; Gonna try and remember to do my blood test in the morning, forgot to do it last week. Whoops!

Om nom nom hot cross bun day, extremely delicious! :D

Not a whole lot other than that, really. Finished reading Shaman King - the ending is kinda. Uh. Hmm. But I enjoyed it a lot overall! Also there's a new event raid in pokemon, so I did that! Surprisingly straightforward, honestly, which was nice. Also went for a walk with Mama, which was great, the weather was really nice today! :3

Also worked on my project a bit more - finally got stuff to actually show up on the page! :O! So I'm probably something like halfway done, given the amount of issues I had getting that to work! Next is deciding on what actual layout tags I want to be using, so I can format it nicely, then pagination. Functionality first, CSS later, hahaha.

But I don't have enough brain left to work on that any more tonight, so it's time for bed! :3

I was gonna start the other sock project I've got planned today, but apparently we don't have any 2.25mm DPN sets. :/ ( Needle-related rambling )

Other than that... work was whatever, and after work I did as I'd planned and checked for hot cross buns. There were none!!!

( Hot Cross Buns on Good Friday are IMPORTANT, DAMNIT. )

Also I have no more work until the week after next I'm so happy~~~ |D Still, sleepy now, so bedtime. Yes.

Yeah, went to the doctor for a new script, today. Bleh, every six months!!! And she wants me to do a blood test, so I'll do that probably Thursday? Otherwise next week sometime I guess. (It's a fasting one, otherwise I'd've done it while I was there, heh.)

Other than that... balled up one and a half skeins of yarn - I was going to try a toe-up sock pattern, but it calls for magic loop circular techniques, and it turns out we don't have any circulars in 2.25, so can't start that. So I started balling up another skein to take with me but I just kinda hit a wall on it, sigh. Well, just one day in the office without something to do in the meeting is fine!

Also took a look at humbundle, and they have a manga bundle with all of Shaman King! :D :D :D So I got that, and I've been (re-)reading it this evening. I have forgotten a LOT, I don't even remember the arc I'm up to at all, but I'm also pretty sure I read some stuff that hasn't happened yet??? So yeah I dunno. Anyway, still super fun! :D Also another couple of series came with it, but I know nothing about them so I'm not sure if they'll be fun or not yet. I will find out later!

On the plus side, I did finally go and get easter eggs! :D Mama was right, the shop isn't as good this year :( But I was able to get enough to take to work and share, and that's the most important thing! I can go to the supermarket on the monday for markdowns, for myself >D

Worked on the log project again! Didn't get anywhere much - turns out I'll have to edit some shit before I can pour it into the templating engine, which is extremely frustrating and honestly means I might write my own grab-from-servers script because I might as well do that and store it all in a database, if I'm going to have to be converting large swathes of data anyway. Which is extremely stupid, but what can you do! :|

Might look into doing a NOSQL DB, actually, everything's JSON objects anyway, and IIRC that'd make it more robust in case of API changes that return new fields (and less likely to lose data, which may or may not end up being important in the future). Will have to do some research!

But not now. Now is for bed because work tomorrow uuuuugh. At least it's only a four day week!

Work today was... well, finishing fixing the test I was working on at the end of work yesterday took more than half the day so that was fairly frustrating, but other than that it was good! Nothing too interesting.

Mended some socks, and did actually tidy up a bit :O!!! I was missing some scissors so I made myself clean up at least that much. And in the process I put a bunch of pins on my pin flag! :D I had to take some of the older ones off because I was out of room XD;;; I'm also officially Out Of Room in my sticker container. :( :( :( Definitely need to use some up on something! Not sure what, though, I've still got a bunch to use on my calendar over where it is so that's out... Also I like a lot of them a whole bunch, I don't want them to only be visible for at most a month! :/

Maybe I'll put some of the sticker sheets up like art, some of them are made in a way that would work... Hmmm. Yes I think I will try that! They're small enough I can probably put them on my bedrails...
