The boy, he thinks, has food poisoning. He thinks. He was getting better and I hoped that was because it was working its way out of his system but now he's worse again, somewhat renewing my fears that it's something worse. Ugh. Or it could still be food poisoning, who knows. Not us.
Code school continues to go well. I got through the part that I got stuck on with the help of a coach, got stuck again, got out by myself, and am now stuck on one method that mostly involves things we haven't covered yet, I think? So that's pretty fine, and I was going to ask for help on it but then I spent a while looking up videos and studying the next part of the code that doesn't involve tests because it was also somewhat new and it scared me. It no longer scares me! But my brain is now full of tech and empty of nutrients and I'm not sure if dinner will help me be able to properly understand how to deal with that last test or if I should wait till tomorrow. Which technically is a day off but I want to make up for lost time and I don't know how long it'll take me to get through everything. Although. It does look like there's only this lab and one more lab and then it's all project, so maybe what I do is finish this lab and do the next lab tomorrow, take a day off, and then do the project. Blergh. Decisions. And being behind. Not as far behind as I was afraid of though!
Writing has picked back up. I'm getting back to rotating my projects, which is good because another one landed in my head this morning for some reason. I woke up with my alarm, was still exhausted from everything, went back to sleep, and dreamed an entire horror comic. Horror comic? I'm not sure but it was vivid enough that I had to look and make sure it wasn't a real comic. I hope I remember it from this morning to now because all I got was a picture of a first panel, the rough story surrounding that, and two characters written down so far.
Drawlloween is also coming along well even though I'm rather behind; practicing humans in preparation for drawing the comic might actually help with that though. Go figure. And my cross-stitch is making for a surprisingly fun activity to do while I watch coding videos, which may mean I watch a lot more coding videos in the future. Which also ought to make the project go quicker, so, win! It's fun, it's relaxing, it's extremely low stress at a time when I don't have a lot of time to devote to cross-stitchery involving a lot of color changes, and I have a frajillion (seventeen? eighteen?) Game of Thrones flags to do. I'm happy overall with that.
Cassius is doing all right at the vets, apparently, although sulky and sad. I can't really blame him. He probably misses Barton and possibly misses us humans too. But other than that, things continue to go all right. I'm still stressed about finances, I'm stressed about a lot of things national and global right now, but in my immediate circle it's only the boy I'm worried about, so there's that.
