Lunch actually didn't take as long as I thought it would! It was still. You know. Over two hours. But considering we got the five-course tasting menu, that's really not too bad.

Also it was extremely fucking delicious, and absolutely worth being Out for that long. (ALSO also hideously expensive, but as my parents had been there before and were paying I am attempting to ignore that. Yes.)

But yeah even though it wasn't as long as I was anticipating it still drained my batteries hahahaha. Rest of the day was pmuch just reading and some minecraft.

And I'll give them this: you don't feel like you're eating that much with the tasting menu (even though it's also not a stingy serving!), but I didn't feel hungry at all until like 11pm, so you know. Definitely more food than a single meal's worth!

BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY Mama had a good time yesssss :D

Nuit l'Animation = Jour de flemme le lendemain

Cette année j'ai pris mon Blaehaj !! et personne ne nous a embêtés pour les avions en papier.
La programmation de courts de la dernière partie était un peu faible mais globablement c'était une bonne année. Je pensais profiter de Pompoko que j'ai déjà vu et dont je me souvenais bien pour dormir un peu mais j'ai à peine somnolé deux ou trois fois de façon éparse. Profité aussi de quelques courts que j'avais déjà vus et ne comptais pas revoir pour aller pisser sans faire la queue.
Lose totale en revanche : pour la première fois j'ai fini la nuit avec un mal de tête dû à la fatigue et j'ai découvert en rentrant chez moi que... mes gélules de paracétamol sont trop grosses pour être avalées quand on commence déjà à avoir la nausée. Yay. J'ai pris un anxiolytique à la place et dodo direct.

Et dimanche... j'ai rien glandé du tout. J'ai même pas été au centre commercial utiliser le wifi gratuit, j'ai utilisé mes data, de toute façon il m'en restait assez. Pas demandé à une amie de m'accompagner dans un café non plus. Pyjama tricot et lecture toute la journée !

Too French, Didn't Read: Malu spent a whole night watching animated movies in the theater then a whole day lounging around doing Nothing.

Saaaaturdaaaay~~

Very good floppy day today, yes!

Mostly I just read - finally finished a long fic I've been reading! - but also some minecraft. :3 And cleaned the bathroom but whatever, boring.

Mama's birthday tomorrow! We're going out for lunch, so I expect that'll be most of the day. It's a FANCY restaurant, after all. Close to home, at least, though! :D

Wow it's been five years since I last touched this thing. Dusting it off for just in case, backup access to fandom friends kinds of reasons. Hi.

New fic meme journal

Go check out [personal profile] ao3_isdown! It's a journal that hosts fic prompt memes whenever AO3 goes down.

Prompts for the first meme are open for close to another three hours, as of this post; prompts will be open to fills for another week after the post closes to new prompts.

Anyway, go take a look! I've already made a little fill myself for Avery and Zeek, which I'll cross-post here, uh. Sooner or later, I promise!

I needed to do a five-to-seven minute history presentation for my Intro to Human Services class (with visual aids), and pick a topic from a pre-selected list; I chose the ADA, and presented on Wednesday. I got 100% 😃

Anyway, here's what I wrote, for anyone interested: The History of the ADA (sources linked at the end) )

Side note, one of my classmates picked the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiments, and her presentation was both fantastic and available on YouTube! Great use of humor to balance out a very dark topic. If you've got about six minutes, I recommend giving it a watch 👍

Mostly better~

Mostly better today! Still not got a lot of energy, but I was able to do a bunch more than yesterday so that's good! :3

Not that I did anything too exciting, just reading and gardening and minecraft, but you know. Much better than being passed out all fucking day again!

Bleh

Probably? better than yesterday, but still fairly out of it. Lots of napping required! I did manage to clean the chook coop though, even though I needed to lay down afterwards. Chooks do not deserve to live in squalor! But that was definitely all the energy I had for the day, bleh. Other than naps, just been reading, really.

I'mma go back to sleep now yes.

ugh

Have felt like shit all day, what bits of it I've been concision for. But of course I'm still up way too fucking late, considering, because brains are extremely stupid and I got sucked into fic. At least I managed to pull myself away in the end? It's not done, so yeah. That took some willpower, of which I have not much.

Anyway, passing the fuck back out now, yes.

Pas si pire au final pour un produit de son temps, moins difficile à placer dans n'importe quelle boîte à livre que le précédent de cette collection, mais quand même... Heh je vais peut-être le garder pour un temps ?

Fuck cover letters, for realsies.

Ugh, today I had to write a cover letter and it sucked. I usually don't bother because I am deeply uncomfortable with the entire process of attempting to sell yourself, but this particular job came via Sibling and required a bit more effort. Ugh. Just. Ugh. SO tiring.

Helped out in the garden by breaking trimmed branches into small pieces so more would fit in the bin, afterwards. That was nice. Didn't need any brain, which was good as I was all out.

What else. Um. Lots of reading this evening, and some minecraft. That's about all. Now I nap!

And today, a sadness.

I found out today someone I've seen around in fannish circles - not knew, or ever spoke to, but seen around semi-regularly for idk at least 15 years - died earlier this year. :( And so, I am sad. It's not really grief, I didn't really know them, but still. They were part of the community and now they're gone and it sucks. :(

There are many reasons why getting older is hard, and this is very much one of them. Particularly for someone like me, who's mostly had older friends, but just in general, too. The longer you're around the more people you know die, that's just... how it works. Alas. :(

Anyway I don't really have a point or anything. I'm just sad.
