Jul. 14th, 2019 09:45 pmI mostly didn't manage to do much Thursday or Friday. I'd known that I'd be exhausted after Wednesday's evaluation, but I always think that I'm exaggerating my memories of how much my brain stops working after I get through something that stressful. It only hits when I stop moving and am no longer under that stress, but the longer I've been stressed and the bigger the thing was, the more I fall apart.
In this case, I was at the 'yes, a load of laundry is a big deal' stage on Thursday. I might have been able to manage more on Friday, but Thursday is the day the cleaning lady comes, so I spent everything I had left to get through that.
My IBS became a problem Thursday and Friday for the first time in weeks. I'm pretty sure that that was stress related because I hadn't altered my diet.
Our cleaning lady is going to be away for most of August. I'm not clear on the dates because she said 3-4 weeks. She also said that she'll be praying, so I think she might be going to Mecca. Google tells me that it's the right time of year for the Hajj.
Scott and Cordelia have been working on figuring out how to sell things on eBay. They've got three items ready for shipping and two still on sale. We've got a box of stuff still to post.
We had a good session of the Firefly game Wednesday evening. One of the players had to bow out at the last minute, so the rest of us did a flashback episode to figure out how my character joined the crew. It was fun, but I was a little surprise to realize that they basically needed a competent general manager to cover things like supply inventory and making people rest when they were exhausted.
With my character, the ship has a crew of five people, and my character is officially the cook. She has retired from her previous job (espionage and infiltration, no combat skills to speak of) and changed her name and was just looking for some place to lie low and found this ship convenient. Now, she's attached to the other characters. Also, the being paranoid about people's motives and seeing patterns and anomalies isn't a thing she can just stop.
I worry a little that my character's tendency to see conspiracies and shadowy maneuvers everywhere is giving the GM (Scott) ideas. Then I worry that I'm breaking his plots by guessing things that are actually going on.
