Saturday: woke up disoriented thinking it was a workday, so by 9 AM, I was at my computer. Eventually I realized my error, and I went back to bed for a couple of hours.
After some discussion, we decided to pick up lunch on our way back from the store, and given the choice between Little Sicily II and the halal gyro cart, I decided to go for the latter. We brought our groceries and food home, and after eating, I got the litter. I wanted to do some laundry and vacuum the bedrooms, but I ended up getting distracted, and instead I just started dinner around 5 PM. This was meatloaf with broccoli and mashed potatoes, and while there was a lot of washing and slicing of vegetables, overall, this was not a very labor-intensive meal. Time-consuming, though. By the time we ate, I just finished up the FFXIV video I'd started last night before doing daily tasks for the Golshi Week event in UmaMusume. I tried to do some FFXIV as well, but the new deep dungeon requires me to have finished Eureka Orthos, and after spending more than an hour trying to do it with Sage and Gunbreaker unsuccessfully, I decided to call it there and write this update instead.
Friday: I had a slow morning owing to my late night of FFXIV and WoW. This comprised waking up in the office, napping on the bed for a bit, and then moving into the bedroom to nap with Mim and the kittens some more. Around 11, I got up properly to confirm with Julie that we weren't doing anything special for lunch; since we have all day together tomorrow, we decided to fend for ourselves. I had a bowl of cereal.
After lunch, I made some health- and finance-related phone calls I'd been putting off, and I spent a while shaving and getting cleaned up. John and I are both a little bit bored of our routines, as he's looking for a lot of attention, while I'm not ready to continue the long youtube video playlists I've been following so far. (The two playlists in question are Crystal's Ace Attorney playthrough and Grinding Gear's live Dawntrail playthrough.) For variety, I watched an old Dead Rising playthrough, as the upcoming remake made me a little curious about the parts of the game I'd never seen.
It's been a while since we had taco soup, so I put that together for our evening meal. Julie had to remind me that she has an enormous supply of taco seasoning that I keep forgetting about. The soup came together great, and with the same reasoning from earlier in the day, we indulged in our own pursuits: me watching youtube and playing Hearthstone and WoW in the office, while Julie started another DS9 binge. We took a break long enough to share flowers for the latest Pocket Camp gardening event. Afterwards, I saw that Ryan's discord has embarked on some sort of puzzle spree, but I think I'm just going to go to bed.
Wednesday: my work contact was out of the office again today, so it looks like this week's project is going to be a little delayed, though we're far enough ahead that this isn't a problem. John and Cliff spent a lot of time on my desk. After Julie ws done with work, she started more apartment reorganization to address some of of the overloaded storage areas we've gotten a little too comfortable with over the last year: the bathroom shelves, the space-saver over the toilet, and closets in both bedrooms. I need to work on some of my own areas, particularly the game shelves, which runneth over with mismatched junk like notebooks and salt shakers and keyboard accessories. For now, I just finished my salad for dinner and continued my YouTube binge, though I did knock out a bunch of Hearthstone quests that had been piling up.

Julie posted on LiveJournal today:
"I finally got my car back on Thursday only to have the check engine light pop on so I took it back in Friday after work. Some sensor was off so they fixed that I was on my way. She's running just fine and I couldn't wait to get back to driving her after the rental. The rental was nice, just not the same.
"Jason and I went to the Weird Al concert at the Cotillion Thursday night and met up with Muffins and some of his friends. It was a great show. I'm glad we took the opportunity to go see him.
"I've been doing some studying to retake the GRE and man do I have some work to do. I took a practice test last night and did pretty poorly. If only Jason could take it for me, he's actually good at standardized tests. I hate that the GRE is considered for post-bachelor programs. I don't think it says anything about what kind of person or what kind of student someone may be. Someone could be an excellent student and extremely smart but score low on the GRE and vice versa. Some people choke on standardized tests, I'm probably one of them. It is not an accurate representation of a person. Blah.
"The heat broke and now it's rainy. I guess this is better.
"Can someone explain to me the rationale of insurance companies not paying for contraceptives but covering pregnancy? Isn't one just a bit more expensive than the other? Whatever."
