Urgh Monday
Aug. 17th, 2020 04:31 pmWell, I survived my first day of the second week of being the boss. I really am fortunate to work with such a good team of people who will jump in and help when there are issues that need dealing with.
I'm really bored of the heat and humidity now. I woke up at 5am this morning because I was too hot despite having both the windows in my bedroom open all night. It's giving me headaches and I'm tired because I'm not sleeping well. Can it be autumn now, please?
Still, in spite of that I managed to have a productive afternoon yesterday after accidentally falling into a k-pop hole in the morning. It all started with this video, which is a joy to watch even if you're not a fan of the genre. It's just so wonderful seeing an adult man losing his mind over the video to a song that is primarily aimed at teenage girls.
This kind of led me down a Youtube rabbit hole, with one of my friends from Twitter sending me other songs to listen to and, before I knew it, it was lunchtime.
Still, I managed to write 1300 words of fic in the afternoon which I was very proud of, and I also managed to get in another 2 episodes of The Lost Tomb Reboot. Twitter yelling here
More thoughts under the cut.

Oh, and speaking of The Lost Tomb
umadoshi pointed out you can get a box set of the English translation of the first 6 books so I went and ordered it. Not that I've read any books at all this year really. I read a couple just after Christmas and when I'd finished The Untamed I read the novel it was based on but apart from that all I've been doing is reading fic.
I haven't even read the Guardian novel yet.
I'm sure I read on Twitter a while ago that there's a name for someone who is addicted to buying books but not necessarily reading them.
It me.
