I’m totally aware I always aim to post a new post at around Noon Pacific Standard Time. That’s my personal goal. But today turned everything on its head, and now here it is, almost 10pm PST, and I’m just now having ten minutes to type this up.
So, where to begin.
My original goals for today were as follows: post finished and scheduled by 10AM. Febuwhump post #25 finished and edited by Noon. Work on some stream stuff until 1PM, then join mom for a late lunch and Opening Day for the Dodgers. Once that was over, watch 9-1-1: Lone Star and make dinner, with finishing setting up my stream for tomorrow’s long stream.
What actually happened? Well…
I woke up early and started reading. Once I realized it was already ten, I jumped up, only to almost fall because I twisted my ankle last night and forgot about it, and it got tangled. I hobbled over to my desk, and then got called out to mom’s desk in the living room, because she needed my help.
From 10-12 I was her gopher, which I can’t complain about because she’s my mom. Then I got an email that I could get her signed up for her vaccine, which I prompted did, only to discover that the earliest appointment was today at 3PM. So, she took the day off early, we watched the beginning of the Dodger game, then took off for Ventura.
And of course, let’s not mention that the Dodger game was a dumpster fire. Either the refs are willingly blind, or they just hate the Dodgers, but every call put the Dodgers back. Add to it Kershaw falling as a pitcher and Dave Roberts’ inability to pull him when he should have, and you have the nightmare that was today.
We got her shot and headed home, got caught in traffic, and I developed a massive headache. So, once we got home at 4:30ish, I curled up on my bed for awhile, to rest my aching head.
Dinner was ordered in, and finally I was able to sit down and work on my stream overlay. I finally got my alerts set up (I hope), got my donation link set up, and I finally have a timer I can use. So yay, I’m all set for tomorrow.
Only… it’s now nearly ten, and I’m beyond behind.
So yeah, I did the major things, with the added bonus of finally getting my mom’s first vaccine. The only thing left is to treat myself to the first episode of Lone Star, and then go to bed early, because 9AM and nearly 10 hours of streaming are ahead of me.
And for some reason? I can’t wait.
Until next time!
