• 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?

I can finally rent Spiderman: No Way Home from Sky Store. Thats my plans for next weekend and the start of my mini Easter break sorted. 🥳
Lmao i read that as you rented EastEnders at first I was like... wait what does Spiderman has to do with that 😂

Anyway, went to the naprapathy clinic today, and it went well! I was a bit nervous but she was really nice :D I still have no idea what she popped in my seat/butt muscles but it definitely feels better. Gonna go back in a week and do some exercises in-between which feels good to have something specific to work on. I also feel like I need to train up my left side because it was larger and stiffer than my right.
 
Uni went well, I grabbed a coffee and did some work in the library, then I had class. I have a really nice seminar group on Mondays and its always a good time in that class :)
I met up with my friend afterwards and had a BBQ chicken panini and a vodka + orange, it was great to see her! We caught up and made some plans together.
 
My mom made some more biscuits today for me since my sister ate the rest of them yesterday, and she soaked the bottle of honey in warm water for me since i had hurt my hands trying to get it out the other night :).

Spanky kept following me in the kitchen, rubbing herself against my legs. She also played under the stool with me; I went to get my camera to get a picture but she followed me 😅🥺.

she was playing with me like this; this is an older picture.

I’m playing with her right now as I type this. ☺️
 
I cleaned up my basement the other day and started using all my exercise equipment again. I've been so busy with work, but I just powered through it. Going to keep at it to!

@Croconaw When you said sketch I was expecting like a simple drawing. That's like a movie poster lol. Very cool!

@CrankyCupcake Sorry for the late reply. To be honest, it's probably the same plant. I don't have a picture and I will take one next time I visit her, but it looks very similar. I know nothing about this plant variety, so it is interesting to learn new things. I was just going by how she explained it. So maybe I should tell her to water the leaves next time I visit and not the root like she was informed haha.

Surprise surprise, I'm posting earlier than I typically do today lol.
  • I tried out the demo of Kirby and the Forgotten Land after hearing good things about it and when Kirby took over TBT. After the first couple of stages, I'm already liking the game! It cracks me up every time whenever Kirby goes into mouthful mode lol.
  • I finally got around to playing Metroid Dread since getting it at the beginning of this year. It didn't take long for me to run away from an EMMI again lol (I tried the demo last year). *Insert "why are you running?" meme here*
  • I finally finished my art after shading in the final areas! Looking at it, I'm very happy with the result and the anatomy isn't that bad either. In fact, I almost couldn't believe that I somehow managed to make it look good (in my eyes at least). Even with that single art piece done, I've only made 2% progress towards something that I'm working on. Not that I'm complaining, because I'm really excited about putting everything together. It'll be great!
  • Feel free to skip this point. While I was driving somewhere, I may have spotted a 2014 BMW M4 Coupe! And I drove that same car in the same blue colour in GT Sport yesterday, too. Considering the track record on how I struggle to identify BMWs, I wouldn't be surprised if that wasn't the correct answer. It doesn't help when the manufacturer keeps the designs similar on top of naming them only letters and numbers haha.
  • Speaking of GT Sport, I got to play that game as well and did a couple of time trials and a few races.
  • I made blueberry danishes with my mother! While the dough and blueberry filling was pre-made, we still had to put them together and bake it in the oven. After the danishes were done, we tried them and they tasted good!
 
Today I'm happy because:

- This technically happened last night but it was late. Phineas showed up and I got my final gold badge in Sakura!
- I completed all of the work that I set out to do today.
- I didn't stress when extra work came in and only completed what I could.
- I've been feeling calm all day and I've barely had any back pain, so I think the medication is helping.
- I watched the most recent episode of Attack on Titan.
- My dog snuggled with me on the couch this evening.
 
There was fire alarm testing in my building today and I was very nervous about my cat since she has only been living here for about a month and I was worried about how stressed she would be during the alarms but she actually handled it so well, she picked a hiding spot right by my side. I'm both glad that she did well and glad that it's over now.
 
I wasn't feeling too well early today, but I was still able to get some things done, and I started feeling better again after lunchtime.
Finished all the advanced islands in Desert Island Escape, and finally finished my New Leaf town altogether! 🥳 I might decide to revisit my town some later, but after playing nearly daily for 2+ years, I'm ready to give New Leaf a rest.
I also had time to start the Flames of the Nether DLC in Minecraft Dungeons! Cleared the first level and the Basalt Delta, and unlocked the secret Nether Fortress mission too.
 
~ Finally took my new shoes for a test drive.. er.. walk. Walked 6k steps today
~ Caught a lot of pokémon in pokémon go
~ The figurine I won from toreba a couple months ago finally arrived!
~ Also some new zipper pulls and a new zipper arrived as well!
~ Bought some fabric and thread
~ As always, gonna have a yummy dinner tonight
 
  • I bought two new games on PC (Red Dead Redemption 2 and Five Night's at Freddy's), looking forward to playing them
  • Had a good smoothie!
  • I've been talking to the guy I like every day
  • I'm going to watch some more of Pokémon Sun and Moon
  • The case of cat food I ordered for my kitty was delivered yesterday, so she's set for a long time as far as food goes
  • My apartment building is having an Easter activity for residents, dyeing eggs and an egg hunt :)
 
Today was a good day.

  • I was invited along to a café this afternoon by some colleagues I don't often spend time with. I have hung out with them all socially in a larger group setting, and I go over and say hello to each of them daily, but I'm like a butterfly and tend to flit around the room instead of staying in one place. It was nice to sit for a couple of hours and have a proper conversation rather than just exchanging small talk. 😊
  • Received an email from one of my superiors saying he will come along to my upcoming presentation for moral support. 🖤
  • Set a date to get coffee with a woman I have been eager to chat with about her work. ☕
