Daily Update, September 22, 2025

On Monday, I had a quiet day. I neither went out nor got any particularly notable phone calls. I didn't even get much exercise done, but I certainly enjoyed the quiet day. {Smile}

After breakfast, I read Forward Day by Day's entry for Sunday and did a little shopping on Amazon before I took a nap. After the nap, I had lunch. Then I read articles and watched videos, both on the web. I also played Cross Stitch World. I tried to write up Sunday's daily update, but I kept getting distracted, especially by videos and articles. I finally finished and started notes in this before going into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends, and found Kitten, so I said hi. Then I started working on the auction house, storage and crafting, but before I got far, Kitten said hi, and we teamed up with me on a mid-level character. We started with a mission that ended a favorite story arc of mine. Then we started the next story arc with Chrome joining us. We ran a few missions right up to dinner. {Smile}

After dinner, I went right back into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I found Dennis and Kitten in much the same place. We ran a few more missions in that same story arc until Dennis stopped for bed. Then I switched to a mission in a story arc that is mostly talks. I ran the mission with Kitten, who admitted they were tired partway through. They somehow managed to finish the mission before going completely quiet and fading out. While they were fading out, I did a few talks to finish the story arc. Then I did a bunch more talks to start the next story arc.  I got to the first hunt, which was quick. Then I stopped before the first proper mission and worked on the storage and auction house and the play had produced. After that, I switched to a different character to do a few hunts, but I didn't get far before Azurette said hi and mentioned changes to her base. I went to look at them, and we talked a fair while. During my visit, Dr. Faustus said hi. I talked with them, too. I checked with Azurette about meeting Dr. Faustus for the villain supergroup, but they said not that day. Then Phonso come on and asked what I was doing. I said I was touring a base. I continued touring Azurette's base while we talked for a fair bit longer. Eventually, I excused myself to join Dr. Faustus. We did a few of my hunts, then a mission of mine. After that, we talked. Then we both got a new contact and did her first mission. Next, we said goodnight. I worked on the auction house and storage after that. Then I made notes in this, taking a brief break for crafting and auction house in City of Heroes: Homecoming, and a still not long break involving Cross Stitch World before I finished the notes. I ended the evening with a prayer and Forward Day by Day, followed by a few short web comics. {Smile}
