Hello, Yulegoat!

I'm entirely here for Queering the Tide, Yuleporn, Three Turtle Doves, and any character, Yulegoat, that you are interested in exploring gender with I am Here For, if you want to play with Trans Tide.

I woke up yesterday with what was the worst migraine I’ve ever had. because while the one that sent me to the hospital a few weeks ago had tiny blips of unconsciousness, when I woke up, the pain level was a 10. (And I had extreme dizziness and shaking.) The hoarded Tylenol with codeine knocked the pain down to around an 8, and things were about a 6 when I went to bed.

I don’t have a migraine today, but I do have the migraine hangover, wheee.

So on Monday I’m going to call the migraine specialist and get an appointment, then call the imaging office and get my appointment for a brain scan. I generally don’t feel apprehensive about calling for medical appointments, but I’ll admit that I feel a little nervous about making those calls.

Anyone want to add me as a friend on Switch? I'll pm you my friend code if you do :)

Tried to pre-order the Switch version of Final Fantasy Resonance, only to be told it was not available for delivery to my postcode *rolls eyes*

You know where I live, why t f are you offering it to me then?

(I know I can easily change stores to somewhere that does do the version I want, but uuuuggghhhh. I can't be arsed).

EDIT: Never mind, found somewhere else that WILL let me pre-order it, AND for a tenner less than the place I originally wanted to buy from! [/edit]

Also got myself second hand copies of SMTV and Vengeance because even if I never play either of them, I am very *grabby hands* about SMT stuff, as I am sure everyone is aware at this point. (Also I just prefer having physical games over not).

Jolie Beauty, a makeup company I really like (I have three eyeshadow palettes from them) has done a collaboration with Hammer Studios for the release of the 4K restoration of Dracula.

:: screams ::

In my FB post I said that the only reason I wish I had the time and energy to be an influencer would be to have products sent to me for review. A friend commented, "hypothetically speaking, if one of these showed up on your doorstep, would an unboxing video happen?" I replied of course it would; later that evening, said friend DM'd me for my mailing address. Hmmmm. HMMMMMMM.

The reason I didn't just hit "Add to cart" when I first saw it was because I'd bought boots and a different eyeshadow palette (on the secondary market, because while the palette is gorgeous, the company has questionable political views and I don't give money to TERFs). If I had known about the Dracula palette, I wouldn't have bothered with the other one because OH MY GOD OFFICIAL HAMMER HORROR MAKEUP.

I got an email a bit ago from Discord, saying that my account was going to be deleted on the 24th of this month because I hadn't used it for nearly two years. Which is true. As a medium, or whatever it is, I dislike Discord. I also disagree with some of the things they've chosen to do (I don't know if they backed down on training an AI on everyone's chatlogs or not, but also the age-gating is irritating, as it is on every other site/app that uses it).

(Bring back bulletin boards, they were better!)

Anyway, the point is that I'm not really sad about the account being closed? I haven't wanted to use it, and I really don't miss it. But I'm posting about it here, just so you know if we were friends on there.

Gaming Things:

1. My time estimate for how far in I was in Bravely Second was wrong - I was about ten hours in on my last post, now I'm about twenty hours in. I am still enjoying it, and the soundtrack is growing on me, though it just doesn't hit the same as the first game's.

I would like to adopt Omnias' d'gon (Bahamut), and hope he grows up to be big and strong like his namesake.

2. I just bought myself a Switch Lite *gulps* and New Horizons. Partly because I've been back and forthing on it for months, and partly because someone I work with sort of twisted my arm about it. We talk about games a fair bit together, and we somehow got onto Animal Crossing, and I mentioned buying a Switch, and she was like, "YOU SHOULD!"

So, er, I have. It is the turquoise one, to absolutely nobody's surprise (it will match my DS! :D )

But also what has sort of convinced me is playing stuff on my 2DS. As I've mentioned a couple of times on

lassarina's What Are You Playing Wednesday posts, I've really enjoyed curling up with a game of an evening. It just feels all cosy, you know? And, damnit, the older I get, the cosier I want to be!

(Also I guess I can finally play the final version of TWEWY so I understand wtf is going on in Neo? *shrug emoji* Also also I really need to replay that because it's been five years, and I did enjoy playing it for the most part).

Anyway, I really should go and make myself some dinner now, because I actually feel hungry for once.

I love science! LOVE! But wow, I wish the COVID vaccine didn’t completely flatten me.

we got our vaccines on Friday evening, and by the time we went to bed I was feeling it. Yesterday was spent on the couch, taking muscle relaxers and Tylenol with codeine approximately every four hours, and even those only knocked my pain down to about a seven. I feel better today, but still not capable of doing anything other than sitting on the couch. I am going to see if I can manage doing some work on the beaded blood spatter project, because you know me, I’m incapable of resting and doing nothing.

While blearily flopped on the couch yesterday, I thought more about my outfit for the 10/24 MCR show. Yes, the burgundy velvet military jacket with silver buttons, but I’m reconsidering the idea of chains of keys draped across my chest from button to button, because I flail A LOT at MCR shows, and I’d almost certainly get tangled in them. And then I remembered that I have multiple decorative “medals” that I’ve bought over the years from Torc and Arrow (that would be my girl Leanna Renee Heiber, go read her books), and those are much more appropriate to the military uniform aesthetic of the The Black Parade. (I also have a giant black and clear rhinestone cross brooch, but I’ve been leery of wearing it for a while now because it looks like an iron cross).

Anyhoodle, now that I’ve figured out the ornamentation for the military jacket: do I want to wear all burgundy, or do I want to wear my ruffled pink and black striped blouse and matching skirt? Something to ponder while I’m flopping on the couch today.

- The MAC lipstick I wanted sold out on their site within something like 5 minutes. But a friend reminded me about MAC counters at department stores, so tonight I'm going to my local Macy's to pick up my order. Yay, nostalgia bait!

- In two weeks I will be in L.A., getting ready for the first of the MCR concerts I'm attending! Which means I'm getting my COVID vaccine tonight, because I don't want to be unvaxxed on a plane or in a stadium.

- Related to the MCR concerts: I know what I'm wearing for the Halloween show, which is why I've been industriously beading blood spatter onto a black jacket and a pink lace jabot and cuffs. But what do I want to wear to the Oct. 24th show? B&W stripes, either a dress or jacket? A black and pink striped dress? All burgundy, with either the burgundy velvet skirted waistcoat or the burgundy velvet military jacket?

... hmmm. I may have just answered my own question, because the band is wearing their Black Parade uniforms during the "Long Live the Black Parade" part of the concert, so the burgundy military jacket would be good. Now to figure out what I can add to that so it's even more over the top. Time to start rummaging in the jewelry boxes to see what brooches and chains I can add.

EDITED TO ADD: Did I just order a bunch of silver key charms to make a chain that will loop across the front of the jacket? Why yes, yes I did.
