Daily Update, August 8, 2025

On Friday after breakfast my main nurse took me to my ballroom dance: cha-cha class. I arrived early. Not many came, but those that did stayed until the end. A few came late, including two gals who partner with me. I learned that next quarter will be Ballroom Dance: Foxtrot. I'm ambivalent about going. This hasn't been the best class for learning a dance, but I also just learned they have social get togethers, too, and these classes are good for learning about them. After class, my main nurse took me home. {Smile}

Then a while after lunch, Carol came. She looked at my monitors. The old one is working fine, but it's so old, it can't plug into the graphics card I got last year. The new one is dying. She asked if I wanted to deal with the manufacturer, asking for a replacement. I asked her to do it for me admitting I felt a little overwhelmed at the thought of handling that. She asked for some information before she left. I sent it later. {smile}

On the way to and from cha-cha, I played Cross Stitch World. After I got home, I had lunch while browsing on the web. Then I wrote up my daily update Before Carol came. After she left, I checked Discord, the chat server, and found that some folks in the villain supergroup were plain busy, and others were actually having trouble, so folks were all excusing themselves. The leader was still going to show, so I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming, and got my moderately low-level member out. I did some auction house and storage before going to the meeting, where I met with the leader. No one else did, and he was stretched thin, so he called the meeting. He wasn't in a mood for playing or roleplaying for his own reasons. So, I worked on the auction house and storage on several characters. Then I noticed the later long, large-group event recruiting. I got a character and ran it. Then I did auction house, crafting, and storage on her before dinner. {Smile}

After dinner, I browsed on the web. I accidentally clicked a page that made some popup menus a lot worse. especially since they kept opening web pages. I tried to get it to stop, but the more I did, the worse it got. Ignoring them made them calm down somewhat, but they still interfered with City of Heroes: Homecoming. So, I started chatting with Nox on Discord, which was less affected. I also began making notes in this. I eventually figured out how to arrange things so I could play on City of Heroes: Homecoming, though not quite as well as I like. On there, I began talking with Dragons. By the time I suggested teaming up, they'd joined a taskforce. So, I started playing by myself on a moderately low-level character. Dragons joined me when they were done with their taskforce, which did speed up a slow mission. Then I switched to a moderately high-level character, and Dragons and I did another mission, visiting a bit. After that mission, Dragons left, so I did some auction house, storage and crafting. Then I played Cross Stitch World before going back to City of Heroes: Homecoming to play by myself on a moderately low-level character. After that, I finished notes in this, running late enough, I got to bed late, even for me. {smile}
