I freely admit that I cackled a little when I saw this conversation happening in one of my D&D Discords. Especially since I was literally in the middle of playing Baldur's Gate 3 at that very moment. I feel like I'm being judged, but I can't really blame them when it's, you know, true.

Speaking of which, my gnome sorcerer/bard was very busy doing important things tonight:



In related news, I love the poly mod. Also? It works surprisingly well when combining these two romances specifically. Karlach and Wyll's relationship makes it very much come across as two Vs working towards a triad.

Look at this sweet, innocent child who definitely wouldn't do something like piss all over my bed at 1am.

Oh, Garrus. It's a good thing he's cute. And that I know it was because of lingering issues from what led to the vet trip on Thursday rather than anything else.

I wasn't able to pay the hotel before the front desk closed at 11pm last night like I'd hoped, but thanks to some help that I appreciate more than you can imagine, I was able to get enough together to cover it before I crashed for the night. I got up early this morning and went to the front desk first thing, before they had a chance to start going through the overdue list, which I definitely think helped. Honestly, I think that C probably assumed I'd been sick and that's why I hadn't come to pay yesterday, because she asked several times if I felt okay which makes me think that I must have looked like death warmed over.

Anyway, the hotel is covered through next Thursday, when I get paid again, so that's one less thing to worry about. I don't have any bills due between now and then, so the fact that I only have a few dollars left in my checking account shouldn't be an issue as long as nothing else explodes. The only potential issue is that I'm not going to be able to wash clothes until I get paid next week, but I think that I have enough clean ones to get me through until then if I'm careful. Towels are the only thing I'm definitely going to run out of, but I should be able to get a few from the hotel to get me through until I can use my own again.

Garrus seems to be doing okay. He's still a little off, but that's to be expected all things considered. It usually takes him a couple of days after a trip to the emergency vet to get back to normal. Keyleth at least has stopped hissing and spitting at him, so that's good. She's never appreciated whatever he smells like after a trip to the vet. They're both currently curled up asleep on opposite ends of my bed, which is a definite step up from yesterday.

That said, today is going to be hellish. I didn't get much sleep yesterday because of the whole "getting up at the crack of dawn to take Garrus to the vet" thing, and then I didn't really have a chance to take a nap or go to bed early because I was panicking about the hotel bill. And then this morning I got up early to go pay said bill as soon as possible. I'm really hoping that I can manage to fit in a short nap during my lunch break today, and then I can maybe take another one after work if needed, because it's barely past 10am and I can feel myself starting to fade.

Now if the universe will just throw me a bone and let me have a break for at least a while. Please. Please, universe.

It's a good thing he's cute. And also on some drugs at the moment.

In tonight's game, ( the rest under a cut for those who don't care. )

And that's where we left off.

Welp. I've officially been living in the extended stay hotel for over a year now. I've gotta admit, that's definitely not what I was expecting when I first checked in on 7/31/2024.

Still, it is what it is. Hotel or not, it's at least a roof over my head, so I'll take what I can get.
