And when we touched, she didn't shudder at my paw
Not shockingly, I didn't want to get up today. The alarm went off and it took me a good five minutes to force myself out of my warm bed. I don't really wanna do the work today.
Yesterday was good, aside from around 1:30, when I abruptly lost peripheral vision in one eye. Ah, the joy of ocular migraines. It was back within a few minutes, but it kind of freaked me out a bit. Fortunately, it only came with a little bit of pain, and laying down for half an hour helped. Meant that my sister had to go with Jess to pick up the puppy from the groomer, but that was okay.
Actually, the weekend overall was pretty good. Friday, we watched some more episodes of Project Runway, which made me happy. I haven't had the brain bandwidth for plotty shows, so a nice reality show is right up my alley. For those who have seen it, we got to the episode where Meg went all nice white lady. It was so cringe inducing. I think Jess spent half the episode with their face in their hands. They just couldn't watch. I was so grateful she decided to self eliminate! I don't know that I could have taken another few episodes of her.
On Tuesday, I may talk to my new doctor about antibiotics. I think I may have a little sinus infection. I've been having pressure in my cheekbones under my eye in an annoying way. It's not horribly distracting yet, but I'd rather nip it in the bud before it gets worse.
I wussed out of the financial discussion yesterday. We'll see if I can get up the courage to do it today. Signs point to no, but I'll try.
Last night was Monster of the Week. The team was summoned by their occasional employer, mob boss Gino Franchetti. It seemed some time after eating lunch, he sprouted a ring of tentacles. The team are horrified to learn that he was having a business lunch with Elion Blade, a member of the Winter Court of Faerie.
They go to the restaurant and find a waitress who seems to have sprouted cow eyes. She confirms that she served Gino last night and that he had the calamari appetizer and a Golden Lion energy drink. She also had an energy drink and the veal Parmesan not long before her eyes turned into big limpid pools.
The divine decides to test out the working theory and downs an energy drink and some lamb chops.
They get a call from Gideon, a totally reprehensible asshole who they saved from the Wild Hunt in a previous session. He is asking for help, as he has sprouted cow horns. They find that he is the CEO of Golden Lion inc, and indeed has energy drinks and a hamburger in his fridge. They head to the factory, and split the party. The apprentice goes to the security tapes, the divine goes to talk to workers on the line, and the sorcerer, the flake and the expert go to talk to Gideon's very young girlfriend.
The girlfriend is kind of sweet and dumb, and is at the mall, using Gideon's money to shop. She doesn't have a whole lot of information, though she previously worked at the bottling plant.
The apprentice finds a gap in the security tapes that the guard says coincided with a tour that the board of directors took. She finds the names of the board of directors, including Cecily Gonzalez, a militant vegan who was protesting a dairy farm they previously dealt with a monster infestation at, and Michael Shaunessy, the head of the rival crime family.
This information saves the divine from having to interrogate the workers on the line. In the meantime, they begin to sprout little cloven sheep hooves, from their earlier test.
The team zeroes in on Cecily, barging into her home and confronting her. She admits her evil plan, and the team hand her over to the Council of Wizards, who are getting tired of The sorcerer relying on them to do his work.
They break the spell, and are able to change the divine's little hooves back to feet. They go back and change the mob boss back, and decide to set up a class action lawsuit where they invite people into the office and change them back one at a time.
As they leave the Franchetti house, a fey in Summer Court livery summons them to meet with the Queen, reminding them as Knights of the Summer Court, it is their job. They agree, and we close out there with the next week's mystery set!
Okay, time to get dressed and ready for work. Ew.
Have a good Sunday everyone!
