oh, i forgot
Nov. 2nd, 2020 07:31 pmSunday afternoon, Younger Child came up to help me do some looking for a box with 2 games in it that Fedex says they delivered in September and we've not been able to find. This was the "actually pick up all the packing boxes and look in them (and maybe label them)". Still can't find it. Which sucks, because it was going to be a gift. (What I can't find actually are 2 copies of an expansion, to a game which I got 2 copies of previously (because it was made already) and one of the initial and one of the expansion was intended as the gift.)
So now I have to go back to the company and say "Apparently it disappeared, because I don't have it at all" and see what they say. Every so often I've had things go walkabout and this is one reason why I'm so PEEVED that the kids don't AT LEAST tell me when something comes in, so I can record it. they just pile the boxes up until I think to ask for them. To be fair, I HAVE a pile of boxes up here I haven't done anything mroe than 'ok, that's that, put it there' but AT LEAST I KNOW THEY'RE HERE.
argh.
Things that need to be done, in no order:
kickstarter email kept up with. (There's info there that I lose cause I just put it in folders to get it out of inbox and then lose mental energy)
various dice purchases recorded and put away
various game purchases recorded and put away.
Books I've read taken out of my room and put ... somewhere.
The year's bills sorted and packed up. (with 'bank records' marked out separately for ease of finding)
Things I *want* to do:
play wow
read books
read pleasant things on kickstarter and make sensible decisions
play games with people
maybe get back on second life
Things I actually do:
be aggravated about email
talk to folks on discord, sometimes
watch youtube (usually simon whistler channels, recently some others) when I can't focus on anything, while I play solitaire of some sort with my fingers.
sleep
get upset that I've forgotten what I intended to do. (frex calling the zoning department)
go to doctors
get upset that I've forgotten to do maintenance stuff in ingress
*sigh*
the last quarter of the year is particularly bad, but the rest of the year isn't much better. I think I have maybe 6 months of *potential* actually functioning adult.
