Hello, people. We’ve hit morning again. Wednesday morning, to be precise. So far, there’s sunshine. The local word in the meteorological world is that we can expect to see something like yesterday. Some rain, but really isolated. Mom started laundry while I was making my coffee.

Knowing today was going to be a laundry day, I sorted through some clothes. I filled half of a trash bag with things to donate. At some point soon, I should make sure the footlocker in the truck is emptied out. I believe it is, or at least very close to empty. When I bought the wooden pirate chest I cleared out a lot of things.

We spent a couple of hours yesterday afternoon with Netflix. Mom’s gotten good with accessing Netflix with the remote she has now, and can turn off the subtitles on her own. I’m pretty sure they have their own Netflix account, but I don’t remember. Right now they’re using my Prime and Netflix.

Aside from an afternoon of Netflix, there was nothing but Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen and poi. Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen all afternoon, and poi all night. I’d show off my screenshots of my character, but it’s a fucking pain to bring things off the Switch. I met a dragon yesterday. I realized recently that I’m no longer running away from everything I meet. I’m not necessarily running at things, but I’m not hiding from everything in the woods.

Honestly, I probably should be hiding more.

My new poi are out for delivery and my excitement is absolutely palpable right now. They weren’t supposed to be delivered until tomorrow, and I was worried they’d be stolen out of the mailbox while we were at Mom’s appointment. Instead, they’re coming in today, while we’re here, so no fear of theft. Hopefully I’ll get some spin time with them a little bit during the day. I’m sure they’ll need a little bit of time on the charger before tonight, but with their Flowtoys core, they’ll charge quickly.

I know there’s a decent weight difference between the new ones and both the pods and the sticks I currently spin with. They actually have enough of a difference that I really want to try them during the day first so I can safely get a feel for them and how they move. And while I could bring out the “emergency poi”, I don’t want to start messing with a potential (fourth) poi weight-class. Let’s not add more confusion to the mix.

Oh well. It’s time to wake up and do shit.
