• Guest, you're invited to help build our new TBT time capsule! It contains three parts, with some of its elements planned to open in 2029 and others not until the distant future of 2034. Get started in 2024 Community Time Capsule: Blueprints.

What Are You Happy About Today?

Today we hung out at a friend's house. We played a trivia game that my husband and I had created. Then, we completed our first dungeon in Dungeon Crawl Classics. Three of my four characters made it out alive, so they are all now level 1 and I get to choose a proper class for each of them. I didn't complete that part yet because I'm still very new to this stuff, but it's going to be so much fun.

I've already turned one into a Natural Wonder, which is similar to a mutant. She has a centipede head, poison spit, and protection from radiation. 🐛

I was shocked to find out that dogs are playable characters. The DM is going to allow the character I cared about the least to be transformed into a canine! 🐕

The last character is going to become a normal thief, but he's got the best stats for it and I like thieves. 🥷
 
Today I’m happy because I had a fun session of Among Us today. The sessions are always so much fun; I get so many good laughs each session. I’m always really grateful for everyone’s patience with my switch’s bad connection; I’m glad I have my tablet as back up. even though it is so hard to play on

I’m finishing up the second palace in Persona 5; I’m making good progress again 🙂. Today I fused one of my favorite personas early on in the game, Shiki Ouji (it’s a favorite not for design though the design is interesting but because of its resistances).

I filled out the survey for this event and posted the last part of the time capsules; this is my first time that I’ve done this. It’s really a fun and interesting idea. :D I’m happy that I could leave some feedback about some stuff that has been on my mind in the survey. I really hope I’ll still be here by the time we open the time capsules again 🙂.

I found out my mario party game has been shipped but probably won’t be here until November 15-18. I hope it comes earlier; I’m looking forward to playing another game with everyone here 🙂. I’m especially excited about Monty Mole being playable ☺️.
 
  • Slept good!
  • Started watching Naruto Shippuden as I just finished the original Naruto. There's so many episodes in Shippuden but I'm super excited to see it all :D
  • I made snickerdoodle cookies last night while having the Great British Bakeoff on Netflix playing on my tablet
  • Been getting better at the scales I've been practicing on violin
  • Been drawing every day, and I feel like my art is getting a bit better over time
  • Enjoying a quiet peaceful morning with Mustachio. Woke up with her purring next to me. Probably gonna watch some of Supernatural while I enjoy a coffee :coffee:
 
- Had a great day today, actually. 😌
- The weather was cold but sunny, nice to see blue sky after two weeks of greyness ☀️
- I got a free bus ride to work because the ticket machine wasn't working :p
- My shift today was actually super nice, chill, and fun! We weren't understaffed for once and I was working with ppl i like, I got everything done with no rush
- My mum gave me a lift home after work and bought us both a cheesecake ❤️
- And got 2 days off now!! A very good start to my week tbh
 
My mood still hasn’t picked up yet but I have a few things to post about; will post again later if I there are more things that made me happy 🙂.

My sister got a recipe to make grave leaves from a neighbor who is Egyptian and just sent some over that she made for us. About a week ago she shared some of the food that the woman gave her (she gave my sister a lot) with us. The food was so delicious. The woman recently lost a baby; my sister has been talking to her and it led up to a dinner invitation. I thought that it was nice of my sister to reach out to her and nice of the woman to share food and a recipe with my sister. The grape leaves were so delicious!

I had enough gems to pull on a banner in OPTC and I got who I wanted.

Sadly the game still hasn’t improved by adding more content of the modes that everyone has been asking for, for about two years and continues to go downhill, so no idea if I’ll ever get back to playing regularly.

I got some snuggles from Spanky earlier ☺️. I love my girls so much.

In Persona 5, I unlocked Kichijoji! I’m excited because I like this area a lot. Also, unlocking more areas is going to help me with my second island since I want to decorate it based on different locations in the game as the Persona 5 dream address that I found had. I don’t remember seeing Kichijoji in it though; the address might have been before P5R royal came out. I’m still excited about my plans for my second island, while also a bit nervous too since this is a very ambitious project 😅.
 
My parents and I caught up on the anime and some of the Youtube videos we missed over the weekend!! We watched another episode of Hunter x Hunter and Demon Slayer, started season three of Haikyu, and then watched LDShadowLady’s newest Wild Life episode and some other short videos!

I received the finished piece from my art trade with Oldcatlady and I absolutely love it!! 💛 Gonna wait until I finish my half before I upload it to my TH, but it was such a cool surprise to log onto ;w;

There’s gonna be an ACNH hide and seek session on my birthday, and I’ll get to host on my island!! 😭 The way the past few months have been I’m a little paranoid something will come up asjklsflksd, but I know that's probably irrational and I really hope it all works out, and the gesture means a ton to me in any case!! 🎉
 
Had an overall really great day! Work went well and I had my favorite coffee drink. Then I talked with my best friend for awhile while playing some games. The Dallas Stars also just SMOKED the Pittsburgh Penguins in Pittsburgh 7-1, so love to see that. Didn't have to go to martial arts either because of the holiday, which is always a win xD. Fed my kitty her favorite food and now I'm just having a chill evening. 💚
 
I have front row tickets next month to see the Los Angeles Kings. I'm right by the visitors locker room, so here's hoping I can high-five the players or at least get to interact with some of the players like last year. I love seeing this team each year even if it's always away!
I just came back from vacation at Disney World. I only spent a few hours each day at the parks; I was more interested in relaxation at the resort. I had a fun week, mostly meeting characters. I think my favorite interactions this year were Stitch and Donald Duck.
I volunteered to work the day before my vacation started. I felt bad that there were only two people scheduled that day in the restaurant. My shifts are up around ten hours each day, so having to work one of those when my flight left at 8:00 AM the following morning was tiring. I did get my schedule for next week, though. I have tomorrow off, in addition to the weekend. It all works out. This week is very generous to me.

I just found out today that my boyfriend is going to propose to me before christmas

I am literally so happy I cannot wait to wear my engagement ring every day and call him my fiancee and I REALLY can't wait for the day I get to call him my husband.

I never had a desire to get married until being with him. He is literally my best friend, my soul mate, he is everything to me. We are inseparable and I wouldn't want it any other way.

We've only been together for almost 10 months but I now understand the quote "when you know you know" *in lana del rays voice*

I been knowing I'm gonna marry him since a month into our relationship.
 
i’m happy i was able to be productive today! i went to bed pretty late last night but i woke up surprisingly not exhausted this morning. i powered through the day and avoided taking any naps so now i’m hoping i can also get a decent sleep tonight.

also had an extra day of cuddles with my doggos today and i’m looking forward to a 4-day schoolweek 😊
 
I forgot to mention a few happy things from yesterday.

The friend we visited has a lot of rescue cats and they're all super friendly. I've never seen cats that want this much attention and don't swipe at me for trying to pet them. They love it, so I got lots of kitty pets in yesterday! 🐱

Also, the Minnesota Vikings won again, even though it wasn't pretty. They're still second in the division with a good chance of making the playoffs! 💜💛

Today I'm happy because I just saw that season 3 of Beastars will be coming to Netflix next month. I can't wait! 🐺🐰
 
Posting again to share a few more things that I’m happy about 🙂.

@Yanrima~ drew my favorite Persona 5 character for me in a gift box :D. It turned out so adorable! ☺️

Christmas is kinda a difficult holiday for me, but seeing this makes me look forward to it a little 🙂. I need to finish making my list for my mom 😅.

I think I found a drawing stylus that I might ask for Christmas. I’m going to see if I can get the procreate app too.

Jewels keeps baking biscuits on her bed; I’m glad she’s using her bed and not just stealing Spanky’s 😅.

I wish I could share the live picture of this since you can’t see her kneading her paws on the bed.

I traded for some items that I needed in AC earlier.

My mood is a bit better than it was earlier 🙂.
 
Yesterday I got back into playing let's go eevee, as a coworker also has some pokemon games and I'm excited to see if we will battle, trade stuff we don't have.
Don't have let's go on my phone tho XD

My ginger cat who usually held herself up in this small box is now out and sitting in the armchair. We were worried but think she's alright. She's changed a lot after her brothers passed.
 
the i'm a celebrity.. get me out of here! cast for 2024 was revealed last night and the series starts this sunday. definitely my favourite time of year : D

the touchstarved merch store opens in a few hours. someone mentioned that it was $30 for shipping to the uk so i might just do some virtual window shopping instead. undecided at the moment.. i'd really like a leander pin though 😭

edit - went ahead and bought a leander enamel pin, shipping was a little cheaper, not too bad. definitely worth it! : )

also started playing minecraft for the first time in years. i might change the difficulty to easy since i keep dying to zombies and spiders in the night on normal mode

It's payday! I got a pay rise and seven months backpay. 🥳

I decided to treat myself by picking up a bottle of wine and a steak on my way home. Looking forward to dinner. Going to serve it rare with buttered onions, garlic, mushrooms, and bell peppers. 😋

Extended my kittens insurance policy and got another free month. Can't complain at that!

Sent a photo of Sebastian's injuries to the vet and she seems pleased with his recovery. 😊

My little house cloud. ☁️
