My floor's been booked in! Next Wednesday!!! :D :D :D I am SO PLEASED, yessssss.

Obviously, as soon as that happened I threw out my entire to-do list to concentrate on MOVE FURNITURE, hahahaha. Weirdly, I still got almost everything done on it, and the one thing I've missed is 'knit 5 rows on sock', which is uh. Not urgent. I'm trying to get through stuff, which is why it's on there, but move furniture more important yessss.

Anyway, got a decent enough start on it today, which pleases me! Gonna have to figure out where I'mma put the desktop, tomorrow, I think? Don't have to actually DO it tomorrow (though I might), but need to make sure wherever it is is accessible even when the rest of the stuff is stacked out there. But!!! At least this time it won't be for long at all - the floor guy says it'll just be Weds-Thursday. Two days!!! :O :O :O SO much quicker than Sibling, yesss.

So that is VERY EXCITE, yesssss :D :D :D

Other than that, I did make curry this evening! I uh managed to fuck up and burn the spices - this is why you don't cook when you're so hungry you're queasy, folks! - so it's not the best curry I've made, but it's still okay. (I woulda considered re-starting when the spices burned buuuut I also ran out of two of the more important spices, so my choices were burned-but-there or missing-something-big. So of course I picked the easier option hahahaha.)

Also some Vintage Story, because of course. Not as much as usual though, by the time I was done cooking and then getting brain back it was already almost 10, whoops. This is probably part of why I'm up at fucking almost half past five... >>;;;;

Soooo today I have not had a single nap, because I am a dumbass. Or, more to the point, I played some Vintage Story with people in the afternoon, and then went back in after food because there was a new mod Azaria got just for me, and then the next thing I know it was midnight. Which was a little late for a nap. And then of course I continued to get distracted for, apparently, FIVE ENTIRE HOURS, omfg why.

I have, however made a LOT of bismuth lanterns in Vintage Story. :3 :3 :3 Also I learned how to use the beehive kiln, and did a bunch of clay stuff, and made some pretties and prepped to make more... it was fun! But also. 5-fucking-a-m. :/

Anyway before all that, I did actually get through all the things I wanted to on my to-do list! I KNOW, SO UNUSUAL! But I've moved all my father's books back out of here, and I made brownies!!! And also did some other more boring things, of course.

But most importantly brownies! I am trying to recreate these nice ones A picked up a bunch when she was going near this one bakery regularly... Failed, but that just means I will, tragically, have to make more brownies once these have all gone... So very sad about that! Not. (The brownies are still fucking delicious! The ones I'm trying to replicate have a chocolate base. Just putting chocolate buttons in the bottom of the pan: does not work. You just have brownies with chocolate in them. Which is a different but still extremely nommable thing!)

Soooo today I got up when the painter got here, and that was fine! I was flagging by like 11am, but changing sleep schedules be like that, so I wasn't worried! And I ended up going to the shops in the afternoon, to get milk and cereal and vegetables and other such necessities!

So obviously I had a nap when I got home! Which went fine... until Sushi woke me up because Food Nao Plz. Which uh. Was kind of predictable, really... (In my defense I was TIRED.) Anyway, once it was finally kitty dinnertime and that was done, I was awake enough I didn't want to go back to bed. Soooo I've just been up since then, which is leaving me with the exact same sort of sleep schedule as usual. XD;;;;;

Tomorrow I'mma try staying up until after kitty dinnertime, I think, and then having a sleep. We'll see if that works better!

Other than that, nothing huge? Started poking away at a few things, but I'm unfortunately not able to make a lot of progress when I'm so goddamn tired, argh.

I am extremely proud of myself! I got up at 7, and stayed awake!

I did go to sleep at like 8pm and woke up again at 1! So I do think bed in the afternoon and wake up at night is gonna be the best strategy, overall. Just gotta figure out how scheduling is gonna work for like. Meals and stuff.

Painters did come today, which is good! Stuff is happening! I didn't even need to move things off the deck with help, they said it was all fine, they could work around stuff as is! :3 Should be coming again tomorrow, probably... but it has been raining overnight soooo possible they won't, depending on what they need to do. Kinda hard to paint stuff if it's just gonna wash off right away!

Other than that, Stardew! :D That was fun, yessss. Also did some weeding before that, and some Vintage Story afterwards hahaha. Was gonna play some more Vintage Story nowish, but I think I'mma take another nap, instead. Only got five hours, after all, which is... not enough sleep for a me. Particularly since I only got like 2 hours the night before orz orz orz. But, having had that nap, shouldn't be too bad getting up in the morning, either! :3
