goodbyebirdMy grandmother passed yesterday morning. She's the last remaining of my grandparents. While dementia did claim all of her a year past, I guess it still hit me. I'll probably be a bit less responsive on here for a while.

Dec. 19th, 2025 10:01 ammuladharaFive things, in a list:
~ On Tuesday, I had a hospital appointment that absolutely could have been an email. I had to get all the way to Huddersfield from my house, for an appointment that was ten minutes, if that. Luckily, my work friend who is an amazing person offered to take me, so I didn't have to contend with the mysteries/annoyances of public transport (I would've been fine getting to Halifax, and there is a bus that runs from there to the hospital, but I've never been there not in a car, so I didn't know how long it would take).
~ Talking of buses, I had a fucking NIGHTMARE with them yesterday. I ended up having to walk to work in the rain, when I was already running late. I ruined a pair of shoes because they got soaked and dirty (and washing them didn't rescue them, so thanks for NOTHING First!)
I won't fill you in on the rest of the details, but I'm hoping tomorrow is an improvement.
~ I ordered some books and an Xmas t-shirt, and only one book has arrived so far. The parcel it was in was damaged, so I hope it wasn't meant to include the other books and they've been lost. The t-shirt was supposed to arrive by yesterday, but it has not. I wanted to wear it to work! It has a terrible pun on it, and everything!
(Yes, yes, I know it's Xmas and so deliveries will get delayed and so on but I am tired and annoyed!)
~ Positive thing #1, however: I'm going to visit my family on Xmas Day, so that will be nice, esp because I couldn't last year.
~ Positive thing #2: the thing that makes me go :) is still making me go :)
~ bonus thing: I completed enough of Thearhythm Final Bar Line to beat the final boss and view the end credits! Although I haven't unlocked everything as yet, so there's plenty to keep me going (also it's a music game, so that will keep me going, too).
