While I was sick I continued my #RollercoasterTycoon quest and managed to finish the entire base game, and friends, this game is a SLOG. It's fun, but there's sooo much waiting around for the level to complete. I don't think I'll do the rest.

I am so exhausted and I have a lingering headache from this flu. It feels weirdly like caffeine withdrawal, to the point I wonder if I should go get a Pepsi Max for lunch to make everything better š

Just got a refund for my aborted holiday accommodation. Wasn't entitled to one, but they gave it to me anyway. Feeling pretty grateful

There's the sourdough bakery, croissanterie, bagel place, donut shop, Vietnamese bakery, French patisserie, we're spoiled for choice for cupcakes, but where does one go for a sausage roll? This is gentrification, damn it š

Welp, it's Monday and I've been laying here for two hours unable to get back to sleep. Maybe I'll cut my losses and go watch the sun rise.

Today I put away the makeshift bins, changed the sheets and collected the array of technicolour lozenges dispersed around the house for easy access. I declare The Sick to be Over! *cough* Mostly.

Also I think they updated their DRM recently, so you can't transfer books to other devices. Real asshole behaviour.

Things I didn't realise until recently: Amazon is a book publisher. They essentially let folks self-publish their works (edit: SOMETIMES in exchange for exclusivity), which means a bunch of niche stuff is only available for Kindle šµ

Enjoying the winter heatwave this week. 30 something degrees with a light breeze? I'll take it. The sun has started coming around as well, there's more light in my place these days. It feels good.
