Apparently, I'm on a bit of a Green Day kick with my subject lines. Go figure. Maybe I'll start making each week the week of a particular band. Maybe not. It's 5:30am, I'm not that decisive.
I slept a little better last night, so that was good. I'm still achy as fuck from the firmer mattress, but at least I slept. That will bode well for D&D tonight, as I might possibly be upright for the whole boss battle. They're fighting an aspect of a dragon goddess, which is a bit challenging. She just healed herself to full after taking a shit ton of damage, and is looking at strategies. They banished her pit fiend, so it might be time to use another phone a friend and go for a BIG friend. A large portion of the party has counterspell, so a lot of what she's been doing has been just noped out, so it's time to bring a non spellcaster into the mix. I mean, technically, the being I'm bringing in is also a spellcaster, but she also comes with a big fuck off sword and has a grudge against he party, since the last thing they said to her was "go fetch." FAFO at it's finest.
Tonight, my sister shall return from Boston, and I get my own bed and my own cat back. I'm looking forward to it.
Hopefully, things will be easier at work today. Yesterday everyone seemed to call on speakerphone/with a bad connection/mumble. I spent a lot of time going "can you spell your last name?" and "I'm sorry, I didn't catch that, our connection is not the best." It was annoying. Also, I had a TON of patients with tough problems or complicated situations. Cochlear implant for an MRI? Oookay. Need an appointment for a study that's only done at the hospital, but your insurance doesn't allow you to be scheduled at the hospital? Awesome. PET Scan, but the template hasn't been set up for your particular type of PET? *headdesk*. Okay, lets see what we can find out. I've got a couple of patients to call back today, who I've been trying to get in.
Tomorrow, I have a day gloriously off. I'm looking forward to this. Originally, I'd planned for us to go out for lunch, but financially, that isn't happening, so I'm going to use the day to make my beef bourguignon from Julia Child's recipe. I think it'll end up tasting amazing (I hope!). The recipe certainly looks good.
I don't think I have enough flour to make a loaf of bread, so I might see about ordering something. Oh wait, I ordered dinner rolls from the creamery. Scratch that, we're good. I will try to take pictures as I go to post.
I have another game tomorrow night, which is out of my twisted little brain. It's a game where the players are playing evil characters, sent by their bosses to thwart another evil group's plans for world domination. It's the second game of it's kind, since I had enough people for two sessions. The first one went really well, so we'll see how #2 goes. Then on Sunday, I'm playing in a game run by![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
poisontaster where I play a dragonborn wizard. My god, at higher levels, wizards are terrifying. Irsu has 5th level spells. There's one, called Steel Wind Strike that is just hardcore. Five attacks on five targets doing an average of 30 points. It's so much fun. I feel bad last sessions, because it felt like because of it, I kind of made some of our combats easier than they were supposed to be, and then I had a scene with one of the NPCs that went longish, and I worry about main character syndrome. So I'll probably try to take more of a supporting role in our murder mystery portion. Unless there's combat. Then I'm going to fuck some shit up. Lol
Okay, time for me to get myself together for the day. Everyone have an amazing Friday!
