TV:

Voyager

203 Projections: Computer, delete Paris. :D Didn't quite buy into the central premise of this episode, sad2say, it was just kinda goofy (Doctor is human and Voyager is holographic? OR IS HE?!)

I started watching Bluey in Polish and it is really actually charming. The children are right.


Games:

I started a wilderness farm in Stardew Valley! I really like it! But I also think I'm done now (she says, for the third week in a row)


Podcasts & Music:

Basically only listening to the Used or Starset, depending on which wip I'm pretending to work on.


Books: I went and did a reread of Murderbot like many other people seem to be doing right now! :D Very excited about the show. OF COURSE it's going up when Kelly (who also loves Murderbot) is going away so now I have a very serious ethical conundrum on my hands!!!! Got the sequel to six of crows from the library so I have 3 weeks to get r dun

I don't feel like fucking around with all the photos in my food post so I'm posting these misc thoughts instead! A week or two ago Liam heard a little scritchy scratch when he was in his bathroom and opened the window to THIS GUY:

(the guy is a vole)


Look at this lil chonk! Tiny ears! Do not want him in my house! All the screens in our window wells (and our neighbours') are torn to shit from rodents. They really need lil ladders to get out of there - we found a toad in there before. I put a board from the windowsill to the top of the well and came back in ten minutes and he was gone. Cute af though. Idk what to do about the screen problems, though. I don't really want to open the downstairs windows with holey screens.



In bird news,



A lady downy woodpecker I saw yesterday! We get a lot of woodpeckers here, with a little dead tree lot behind us. Merlin (the app) said there was a red-bellied as well, but I never saw it. I haven't managed a picture of one of them yet! This morning I woke up to a flicker, but it flew off before I got out the binoculars. I neeeeeeed a flicker picture πŸ₯ΊπŸ™

I did not break up with Stardew Valley 🫣🫣🫣

Books:

I did break up with the Reappearance of Rachel Price. I wanted to read this book since I saw it on a kobo sale and me and the library kept sending it back and forth forever, but the premise sounded fun: 18 yo girl grown up under the mystery of her mother's disappearance (when she was 2) and all that comes with that (crime podcasts, her dad being charged with murder, town gossip, emotional problems), in the middle of filming a documentary with her family when her mother suddenly reappears. I got to her mother reappearing and a bit after but I just had to accept that I don't read mysteries because I really just don't like mysteries! I want to shake all the characters and be like JUST BE STRAIGHT WITH ME >:( I have no patience for figuring shit out or red herrings or any of that. Unless it's a mystery in a sci-fi book or a fantasy book and I have worldbuilding to contemplate while I ignore that mystery, bleh

Writing and other wips: ~1680 words written on two wips, mostly actually writing, too. Language learning: 7h18
