☆ Did about 1.5 hours of work today before we had to close for a plumbing issue lmao. I'm technically on call to go back in if they are able to re-open the building before this evening, but I feel like that's optimistic given that this has happened before and they definitely didn't fix it that quick. At least I hope things are fixed by the weekend because we have our biggest annual fundraiser party happening and I have no idea what they'll do if we don't have working restrooms by then.
☆ I took the extra time off to finally clean my bathroom and play some Honkai Star Rail. I haven't played for a while but my coworker got me hyped about Aventurine only for me to patch and boot up the game and then realize whatever's going on with him is locked behind a main story quest I haven't beaten yet jshdfskjfhs I'm still on the Xianzhou Luofu!! That's what I get for being lazy I guess. I'm probably not going to pull for him, I've had terrible luck with 5-stars in this game and I'm eyeballing Boothill even though I know nothing about him except that he's a cyborg cowboy and I already love him for that. Good luck to anyone who is pulling for Aventurine/Jingliu though!
☆ Lately my hands/wrists have been hurting even more than usual, and I know it's from too much computer use/gaming but it's basically impossible to not use a computer and stuff!! A friend recommended compression gloves so I bought a real cheap pair to try and see if it helps any. I have a feeling I'll ditch them after a couple days like I did with the wrist brace I tried BUT hopefully not. These last few days have been real bad though so I'm willing to try anything, I couldn't even work on the fic I've been writing because typing was too much of a pain. 😑
☆ While I shouldn't be spending more money so soon after my previous pin purchases (the FFXVI pins arrived a couple days ago and they're even more gorgeous in person), I'm sooo tempted by this Pokemon sweets enamel pin Kickstarter by leaphere. I've bought Pokemon merch from them before and everything is so cute, and they're a really nice/helpful seller! They've got a couple of my fave Pokemon in this Kickstarter set so I'm like oh no... I may end up pledging for a couple pins anyway lmao. I definitely recommend their stuff if you're a Pokemon fan!

Haha I mostly just pull for whoever I think is cool since I'm f2p when it comes to gacha games. I do have Gepard for shields so I feel like I don't really need Aventurine. Maaaybe if I liked his design a little more, or liked Boothill's design less. But I need to save those darn jades/tickets because I've not once pulled a limited 5-star I actively wanted in HSR so I can't risk it lmao. I'm glad you got Aventurine though, having a good shield character really makes a difference what with the less time spent healing constantly.

I hadn't really wanted to pull on anyone before Aventurine came out so I definitely get holding until the desire strikes. F2p is the way to go too so best of luck dragging Boothill home.
