hilsHad my COVID shot this morning and, honestly, the most stressful thing about it was actually finding the place. Because it was being offered through work my nearest vaccine site was Leeds (the next city over from mine, about 30 miles away) and of course my Satnav couldn't find the building. Good thing I'd allowed plenty of time for bad traffic and getting lost.
The actual vaccination stuff was incredibly efficient. I was in and out in 10 mins. Everything was clearly signposted and there were loads of stewards around making sure everyone knew where to go and what to do.
I have to say it's the least painful injection I've ever had. I thought the nurse had just put her hand on my arm and then she said it was done!
I'm feeling very tired this evening which I was told could be one of the side effects. More likely I'm tired because I barely slept last night because I was feeling anxious about it, and driving to places I don't know is always tiring. Hopefully I'll feel better after a good night's sleep. Aside from feeling tired I haven't got any other symptoms so I think I just need to sleep.
In fandom news I finally have a completed first draft of my![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
sundial_exchange fic. It is a lot longer than I initially planned. I was thinking it wouldn't be any longer than 5k and it's currently pushing 10k and will probably be longer after I've fleshed out some scenes. Now begins the editing process. I initially took today off to do that but because I'm so tired I only got through about 1200 words. Hoping to get a bit more done tomorrow and I have Monday afternoon to work on it too.
I think the last time I posted about the shows I was watching I was just about to start My Unicorn Girl. I ended up ditching that after 4 episodes. I thought it was going to be bad in an entertaining way but it was just bad. Neither of the main characters were particularly likeable and their relationship was mostly snark but not in a fun way.
So, because I still wanted to watch something modern and fun before starting Nirvana in Fire I decided to give Cherry Magic a go. Absolutely the best decision. It is one of the sweetest and most romantic shows I have seen in a long time. It's only short. 12 episodes of 20 minutes, but because I was enjoying it so much I managed to make it last a week because I didn't want it to be over. Highly recommend.
Our group watch of Sha Hai continues and we are all still loving it. We're over halfway through now and have grown rather attached to several of the new character, as well as being excited when old ones show up.
We've got 2 episodes left of Gank Your Heart, which we initially started to make fun of it but actually turned out to be pretty good. We're all rather invested at this point.
