ironymaidenyesterday i had my first migraine in a while. it took me down at the end of the work day and i ended up missing Friday night game. (i fell asleep hard after having dinner, drugs, and two tiny cans of Coke Zero, and even after i woke computer screens were a no-go.)
i felt better this morning. we picked up breakfast from Hattie's and coffee while we walked the dog, then watched Falcon and the Winter Soldier while we ate. then we walked to the better grocery store, which had potted bulbs 3/$10 and got 3 clumps of narcissus and three clumps of tulips. we picked out ones that hadn't bloomed yet; originally i had intended to just sit them on the balcony, but they were all quite rootbound in their little plastic pots, so i ended up doing some impromptu gardening. dead cruft and moss cleaned out of the planters, geraniums trimmed back, dirt fluffed, bulbs planted in the open spaces.
i ran another errand (boots getting stretched, the left one needs a bit more, should be done next week) and picked up some beers and ciders. C had fallen fast asleep with the dog, i should have taken a picture. but that made it easy to go sit in a sunbeam on the balcony with my kindle and a cold beer.
this being a four-game week, we had a pretty frustrating dungeon crawl tonight - lots of traps and a fight that yielded nothing but decoy treasure. we did, however, find a magical vending machine with discount healing potions. it could move and seemed to have some intelligence and the poor thing was chained to the wall, so my character used her smith's tools to set it loose. (we ended there, we'll see how that plays out next time.)
this group is mostly educators and essential workers, so they're all qualified to get vaccinated...ranging from having both doses to fighting to schedule a first appointment. i'm really struggling to tamp down my feelings about being last to get my shots; we are healthy and mostly safe from exposure,* we should be last, still feels like shit.
*if you are going to get into the weeds on this, it would be nice to have living in an apartment building with interior hallways and elevators considered a risk factor since we definitely share air. but the state has come out specifically to say that it doesn't count as "congregate".
