Sep. 3rd, 2016 10:36 amNo headache today. Hurrah for that! And I even slept reasonably well. There was a good bit of me being half awake but also dreaming, but I can live with that. I had Scott buy me a new pillow to replace the one I had been using that had gotten really bunched up and twisted beyond my ability to flatten it, but although I specifically said 'thin,' the one he got is too thick. I’m going to see if I can flatten it by sitting on it or something. I told Scott to just get something cheap because I hoped that that would mean it would flatten the way I want it to.
When I’m lying on my back, I’m fine with no pillow at all. When I’m on my sides, I want a bit more pillow than I have (which leads to the bunching and twisting, I suspect). A pillow an inch or two thick is a compromise.
Last night and Thursday night, it was very nice out, mid 60s F, when I went for my evening walks. I went out pretty late on Thursday, so I didn’t go as far as I did last night. Most nights, when it’s too warm to be comfortable, I walk down the hill to the church and around the corner to the cross street and then back. Depending what mods are on the church portal, I can either hack it twice or hack it four times. When it’s cooler, I go another couple of blocks and up into the science and nature center. If it’s dark, I don’t go very far in. There are three portals I can reach from within the range of the parking lot lights and another three that I just can’t.
Last night, I left home a little after 8:00, so I thought I’d be fine going into the woods, but it was pretty dark by the time I was heading back out. I probably shouldn’t have gone in. Also, there were a lot more mosquitoes and other biting bugs than I expected given the temperature. I’m not sure how many bites I ended up with, but nothing’s itching right at the moment.
I did deploy some resonators and some mods and make some links and some teeny tiny fields. I also collected some stuff I can use later. I’ve been going through my inventory much faster than I’m picking things up.
Scott ended up scheduled to work both today and tomorrow but not having to go in early either day. I think he’ll do the grocery shopping on his way home tonight.
I made rice last night in the pressure cooker. I did something wrong, though. The stuff on the bottom came out mushy, and there was a thin layer on top that was just a bit crunchy. I used chicken broth, and Cordelia complained loudly that she didn’t like the taste. I couldn’t taste a difference myself.
Yesterday’s writing was mostly editing. This Amber AU is just too damned long. I’ve currently got it all in one document, but that’s unwieldy. I haven’t broken it up because I’m still editing all the way through as I think of things. Having to pull up multiple documents to find the section I want to tweak would be more annoying than scrolling through. I just have this worry that there’s actually a point where the document will be too long to continue to work. I’m pretty sure that’s a leftover from when I first started using word processing programs and documents could only be so many KB or the program would choke.
