Mac and I went grocery shopping at Sam’s Club this afternoon. Afterwards, we grabbed a drink and a pepperoni pizza pretzel from the little cafe thing. It was all right.

I fell asleep at Beau and Tina’s today. We went for our normal game night, but Jamison, our dungeon master, and Dustin, our roommate, are out of town at C2E2 this weekend. So instead of a game or two of Magic and then Pathfinder, everyone just played Magic.

Oof. I didn’t realize how long J was studying and listening to lectures this evening. Seems like just an hour or so ago I got home, jumped in the shower, and fed the feline overlord. Nope. I’ve been at it since 1730.

I totally overslept this morning. I woke up pretty damn early, initially, today. But I had a massive migraine hangover and my face was super fucking puffy. I almost looked like I had been punched in the face. Not a good look for me.

1 Week Since I Last Picked Up a Crochet Hook
I haven’t really crocheted at all this week. Most of my “free” time was dedicated to school work, sleep, or just existing in a pain/brain fog double punch due to a fibro flare. It kinda sucked.
