This Week I...

 Well, it's Saturday again. So, here's what I did this week:


Wrote

Basically nothing. Tried to work on a couple fics I have going, but aside from a few sentences here and there I got nothing.


Read

Mostly fan-fiction. Read a little on my books, but not a lot. But honestly, I kind of got into a Star Wars fic mood since I watched Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones, so I've kind of just been wanting to read fan-fiction of Jango and Obi-Wan being all heart eyes at each other while they become dads to the clones. Don't look at me like that. That is the plot of a lot of Jango/Obi-Wan fics. And I love it.


Watched

Murder, She Wrote

Last Week Tonight with John Oliver

The Shining - the miniseries from the 90s. And you know what? I liked it better than the movie. For reasons. Maybe someday I'll make a blog post about it...

Also watched a bunch of Outside Xbox Hitman videos.


Played

A bit on some mobile games.


Posted

Post about The Phantom Menace.


Anything Else?

Got some grading done on my kiddo's schoolwork. Ended up doing most of it while they were in therapy. Way easier when there isn't a cat lying on the book. 


That's it for today. Might or might not be another Star Wars post on Wednesday...

This Week I...

Hello There!

Let's see what I did this week.
Spoiler: I discovered I can use different fonts on here... Hopefully it works... If it didn't, ignore this.


Wrote

 Mostly just a blog post. This means there might not be an Animal Crossing post on Wednesday. *shocked Pikachu*

Read
 
A bunch of fan-fiction.
Bits on my stack of books. I haven't read as much on them as I should. I keep getting sucked into doing things online until way past sleepy time and don't give myself time to read.


Watched
 
Bunch of stuff on YouTube. Spent one day just watching North of the Border stuff. I love his stuff. Highly recommended.
The Haunting of Hill House - It is spooky season. We watch spooky things, yes? 

Played
 
Still trying to decide if I want to get frustrated at the install time for Mortal Kombat 11. Or to say fuck it and go back and play Deception on the original Xbox, which would require me to move consoles around.
I did play a bit of Pokemon Go when me and the kid went to Walmart. Caught so many Pokemon.


Posted
  Posted an Animal Crossing post on Tuesday. Cause I thought it was Wednesday...


Anything Else?

The quitting smoking thing hasn't been going too badly. I've been mostly just limiting my time in between cigarettes until I just stop. I'm up to three hours in between, which I'm doing okay with. This week I was stressed the fuck out and fucked up the schedule for a couple days. But... I didn't actually smoke more on those days. Mornings are seriously the worst for me because it takes me forever to drink a cup of coffee, and I can't eat or anything while drinking coffee. It just makes everything taste gross to me. So when I want a cigarette I can't just be like "I'll have a snack". I suppose I'll have to drink my coffee faster. I mean, I am cutting back, so that's good. I'm down to 4-5 cigarettes a day as opposed to 7-8 a day. It's not much but it's something. 

Also, kiddo learned how to make cross-stitch patterns. They wanted pixel art for a game they like, and they couldn't find any online. So they found a website to make cross-stitch patterns and made a couple. 


That's all for this post. Wednesday's post might not be another Animal Crossing post. But it might. Who knows. Not me.

This Week I...

 Hello There!

Tis Saturday again, which means I get to go over what I did this week and realize I didn't do much of anything.


Wrote

A bit on a Witcher fic I've been working on. I think I got the first chapter done. Which woo. Now to get the rest done. Got bits for 10 chapters altogether I think. We'll see how that works out for me.


Read

Fan-Fiction

I know. I need to get back to The Stand. But... Ugh. I wanna read happy stories about people making heart eyes at each other.


Watched

CJUGames play Resident Evil games mostly. I watched him play both Resident Evil 4 games and then started up his play-through of Resident Evil 7. I'm just sitting here with my fingers crossed that at some point he plays the fifth and sixth games. Cause that will be possibly the only way I have actual knowledge of those games. Any of the Resident Evil games really. I tried to play the remake of the second game and I ended up putting Leon in a corner and crying cause I was scared... I am not a brave person. Much easier to watch CJU play them. Which, yeah, if you are interested in the Resident Evil games but aren't a fan of playing horror games, I highly recommend CJUGames' videos on YouTube. His humor counteracts the scary bits, he reads pretty much all the notes and things out loud so you learn the lore and such, and he is mostly silent during cutscenes. No insult to other YouTubers that do playthrough videos, but if I actually want to know the plot of a game, I watch his videos. Oh, and he only has his facecam visible during the intros and then plays highlights at the end so you're not losing a corner of the game.


Played

Sadly, nothing. Need to get back to Morrowind. But I keep getting distracted.

A book challenge post


Anything Else?

Went to the local Walmart on Thursday to find they were rearranging the grocery section. Which meant I was incredibly frustrated. I just needed some Easy Mac!

Decided to delete most of my bookmarks on AO3 and start a bit fresh for a few different reasons. So, sorry to anyone who noticed I deleted the bookmark. I might end up bookmarking it again. I basically tried to tackle what I assumed was going to be a small problem and it turned into a massive problem and I got frustrated and when I get frustrated I tend to just start over.


And that's all.

No idea what Wednesday's post will be. Probably an Animal Crossing post. We'll see if I'm right or not on Wednesday.
