Thursday started with video counselling. I was a little late, but I think we had a good session. The next will be in the new year, at least two weeks in a row to see how the holidays went. {Smile}
I called my cousin Kim and talked with both her and my Aunt Valerie. I let them know their presents should be there before Christmas, but Mom's picture books should get there significantly later. Then we caught up on what each other are doing. It was a nice talk. {Smile}
I also called my cousin Nancy but got her answering machine when I didn't get dropped first. So, I texted her, too. I picked out some gifts on Amazon while waiting for a reply. I got a text back. She's in an area where she gets dropped so much, she's given up trying to call. I confirmed her address. I ordered the gifts I'd picked out earlier a while later. That took a couple of tries because on the first try, I forgot to have them send the gifts to her address instead of mine. I texted her again afterwards to let her know they were on their way, and when they might arrive. {Smile}
After my video counselling session, I watched videos and read articles and comics on the web. I also began calling and texting the two cousins I mentioned. I read comics on the web during lunch, before I finished the calls and texts. Those were intermittent and continued well into the afternoon. Partway through the afternoon, I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game, then worked on the in-game auction house, storage and crafting. Then I started writing up daily update. In the game, I spotted a trial I hoped I might get a badge from for my best badge collector. I ran it on her but didn't get the badge. I guess she had it, but I didn't spot it. She does have a lot of badges. I've realized my second-beat badge collector might not have it, so I'll have to watch for it. I finished the texts with my cousin Nancy. Then Ulty invited me to a taskforce. I ran it, finishing enough before dinner to squeeze in a bath and a little more daily update writing. {smile}
After dinner, I read articles on the web and finished my daily update. Then I checked Discord, the chat server, and found out that Dennis wanted to team up. I dashed into City of Heroes: Homecoming and teamed up with Dennis. We did some winter-themed missions for the badges they give until he left for bed. Next, I checked on my friends. After that, I started to check things on my second-best badge collector when I got invited to a team by someone I didn't know. I also got invited to a taskforce by Divi, but it filled and started without me while I was figuring out the team, which was a new guy wanting a low-level trial popular for levelling. I started to help him set it up. Then I happily handed the organization over to another who showed up and seemed happy to lead. I established long-term connections with the volunteer leader and ran the trial. We lost the new fellow partway way through. then our leader organized and recruited a taskforce, followed by its sequel, another taskforce. I ran both, despite it really being too late for the second one. Then it broke up. I did the in-game auction house, storage and crafting. Then I made notes in this, taking breaks for auction house, storage, crafting, and reading a comic on the web. After I finished notes in this, I said the Lord's Prayer and read Forward Day by Day. {Smile}
