Away Weekend
Nov. 25th, 2019 12:23 pmSpent Thursday night through Sunday catsitting at @heavenscalyx’s place, while they and wife Akycha netted to Vancouver and back so Akycha could accept the Society for North American Anthology book prize, which is a Big Deal. Friday thus was WFH, in which I caught up on needful tasks that had been languishing because they required uninterrupted focus to really make any progress.
Saturday was up at 6am to take first shift priesting the Wesir Mysteries Vigil, which ran for 24hrs. I worked a total of 10 hours, split into six and four with a five-hour break midday for cooking and cat litter and starting the primer in the bathroom. Alas I couldn’t find the gallon of primer, so instead blew through the remaining little can and got all the obnoxious space behind the toilet done. I also finally managed to do the first watercolor exercise in the online course Rowan got me for my birthday.
@heavenscalyx and Akycha got in late Saturday night, A feeling under the weather and waking up with a full-blown cold. Heaven and I fetch more primer and groceries, then made homemade Mac and cheese for A (her request), salmon and asparagus for me and Heaven, and the sensual herbal hot cocoa for dessert. That means all but one of my herbal hot cocoa recipes have been tested in advance of the class I’m teaching this coming Saturday (11/30); the final ingredient I need to test the last one will arrive Friday. Then I drove back lateish and flopped into bed.
I’ve concluded that I probably concussed myself last weekend and will go double-check with urgent care tomorrow most likely, so that’s fun...
