Saturday: when Julie woke me up this morning, she just wanted me to turn off the alarm on my phone which had been in my pyjama pockets. In my unconsciousness, I didn't recognize this, and instead I clocked into work an hour early by mistake. I figured it out pretty quickly, though.

My work shift required a more active review of situations during my chat support requests, so I got less done during my project time. Fortunately, my responsibilities have shifted as well. On my main project, I am now handling reworks solely on my own, but I no longer need to work new groups. I prefer this breakdown, I think.

After work, I came out to the living room to hang out with Julie for a bit, but I mostly just drowsed on the sofa thanks to my poor sleep schedule. Julie joked I was going to fall asleep as soon as she left for her girls' night, but after she left, I got up to vacuum the bedrooms and eat my salad for dinner while catching up in Fallen London. I had planned to start working on Moondrop Isle next—I joked to David in a text message that this is "crunch week supreme" since we want the game to be feature-complete on the 27th—but John wanted attention, so I followed him out to the living room instead... where I soon fell asleep on the sofa, as predicted.

I woke up a few hours later, and since it was after ten, I treated the cats. I'd wanted to give them more lickable treats, but it looks like I used up all but one stick, so I opened a can of tuna instead, which has momentarily sated the savage beasts.

Getting on the computer to resume my work, I was surprised to find that a friend felt I was owed some pixel art, so I now have a new avatar on cohost. Having written that cohost update plus this calendar entry, it's now time for me to resume Moondrop Isle work for real.

IS THE COUGH STILL HERE? NO! Very excited by this.

Thursday: had an awful time sleeping last night, which wasn't helped by staying up later to shave. Mim wouldn't settle down, and just as I was starting to drift off, she scratched and bit my arm with ferocity. Once I got to sleep, I built an edifice out of tiles, many of which were trapped, and the worst of these was a solid red plate, a crushing device, but I could see there would be more detail if I used perfect vision. Perfect vision of the plate's horror triggered an instantaneous eruption of blood from my mouth, and I immediately woke, just two hours after I'd fallen asleep.

Feels like I've got a cold, or at least my sinuses are productive. work was alright; John appreciates the fluffy pillowcase I've started keeping on my desk, but he still wants a lot more attention than I can give him throughout the workday. The streams I like to follow haven't updated this week, so I was a little out-of-sorts while having the Mongolian-style spicy udon Julie made for dinner.

Continuing to progress in RVAFF. I didn't realize that the woods are a procedural space comprising 2,500 rooms in one corner of the map. I should stop trying to map them until I've got clues that actually send me there.

Saturday: we went to my cousin Cade's wedding today. I forget where it took place exactly, beyond being in a town in rural Kansas, but I can at least remember how out-of-place we felt. (There weren't too many people from our branch of the family, and it was a pretty dressed down event. I was wearing jeans and flannel, and this attire was on the more formal side of the spectrum on display.) The highlight for me was the presence of DOT'S HOMESTLE PRETZELS on the tables at the reception, which were previously unknown to me. I kept going back for more.
