Urgh today has been a day. Nothing bad particularly just feeling stressed about *gestures at everything*

Jacqui did her COVID test this morning and I posted it. We apparently should get the results in a couple of days assuming it doesn't get lost or any other sort of nonsense. She's mostly doing okay. Still has a nasty cough and she's spent most of today in bed.

Agreed with my boss that I'll package up all the fobs and she'll pick them up and take them to the post office. By pick them up I mean I'll leave them in a bag outside my front door so that we don't have any contact.

So, you know, thinks are ticking along. Everything is just terrible.

Apparently it's the NHL Draft tomorrow. Which is weird. Usually it's in July but because *gestures at everything* they pushed it back to October. This is usually my favourite part of hockey outside of going to actual games. For the past 3 years I've done tons of research into all the prospects so I knew what sort of skills teams were getting when they made their pick. I did mock drafts the whole thing.

This year it all went a bit wrong. At the period of time when I usually do my research I was not in a good place mentally so I just ignored it. I kept telling myself I'd see how I felt a bit closer to the time and oops now we're here. The only prospect I know anything about is the one who is going to go first overall because he's a big deal and set to be a generational player. Aside from that I have no clue who is on the cards.

Usually it takes place over a weekend but this year it's a Tuesday and Wednesday for some reason. So I won't be able to stay up and watch it because I have work. I follow a few people on Twitter whose job it is to research this stuff so I'll just see what they have to say after the event I guess. It's weird and a bit sad. Must suck for the prospects too, especially the highly ranked ones who won't get to enjoy the huge event that this usually is. I don't even know how it's going to work this year. I'm assuming it'll be done virtually.

So, I know I said yesterday that I was going to start Sleuth of the Ming Dynasty today but I woke up this morning and realised that what I actually want to watch is Love and Redemption. I blame Lost Tomb 2 for getting me attached to Cheng Yi. So instead of a historical detective drama (I think that's what Sleuth is?) what I'm going to watch instead is a fantasy reincarnation romance drama. I don't know. I've seen gifs on Tumblr and it looks fun but I know how misleading gifs can be (I was convinced Granting You A Dreamlike Life was good until I watched 5 minutes of it). So, we'll see how I get on. If it turns out to be terrible I'll go back to my original plan.
