Daily Update, February 20, 2026

The night before Friday, I got to bed a while after 2 am, but before 2:30 am. I slept reasonably well, I thought. I didn't seem to need a nap. {Smile}

After breakfast, my main nurse took me to my Ballroom Dance: Samba class. In class, we were mostly practicing. I found I knew the first nine steps just from their name. the teacher reminded me of the next two, and I practiced them as well as the first nine. I hope I won't forget those two. I think there are three more to learn better. I danced alone at first, then mainly with one of the gals I often dance with. I also danced with my teacher to review those two steps. My main nurse picked me up and took me home afterwards. Both on the way down and on the way back, I wrote some of Thursday's daily update. {Smile}

When I got home, I got onto my computer, and fairly quickly finished Thursday's daily update while I started lunch. When I was done, I started browsing articles, comics and videos on the web while I finished lunch, continuing for a while afterwards. Then I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game. Next, I did a story arc on my own on the new version of my lower-level villain supergroup member. After that, I worked on the beginning-of-the-weekend auction house. Then I went to my villain supergroup meeting. Dr. Faustus, our leader, and the other regular were already there, but not the two or three new ones we'd hoped for. We began talking about what to do, and I mentioned that I had some story arcs. We did the next two in the series after the one I'd done on my own. While were doing them, one of the new ones contacted our leader, but was slow to join us. He joined us literally a minute after our leader left and helped us finished the second sequel. Then Dr. Faustus left, too. I did one more story arc with the other two members, running later than I think anyone meant to. I left for dinner as soon as it was done. {Smile}

After dinner, I went back into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game. Then I worked on the in-game auction house and storage for the new version of my lower-level villain supergroup member. While doing this, I talked with Nox on Discord, the chat server, and got some very helpful answers about something in City of Heroes: Homecoming that I was concerned about. I also talked to Kitten on Discord, getting more advice on same subject. Next, I played by myself on the character I repurposed right after making it, hoping to get a particular mission so it could go up one more level. During this, I said hi to Ulty and Jenny's Player, and talked with Jenny's player. Then I talked some more with Noxon Discord while continuing to play by myself on that character. I finally got the character I was playing through the mission I was holding her back for. Then I played enough more to gain that level I was hoping for. After that, I worked on the in-game auction house, storage and crafting on various characters. Then I wrote a tiny bit of this and started making notes in it. I did make a few brief visits to City of Heroes: Homecoming so my second-best badge collector could work on a badge, and played a little Cross Stitch World, and read a couple of comics while I finished making notes in this. I finished my evening with reading Forward Day by Day and saying the Lord's Prayer and Saint Francis's prayer. {Smile}
