Daily Update, June 19, 2026

The night before Friday, I got to bed several minutes before 2 am. I only met my first goal, but I did meet my first goal, and by a margin, at that. {Smile}

After breakfast, my main nurse and I went down to Safeway. I took a few books along and read _A Bride's Story 15_ by Kaoru Mori on the way down.  I picked out a sandwich, then picked up a few prescriptions that were waiting for me, paying for all. I thought I had trouble with my card, s o I tried a check, but that's what their system couldn't handle. I paid with a credit card with no trouble. Then we went back home, with me reading more of _A Bride's Story 15_. {Smile}

Back at home, I got onto my computer. I had the sandwich for lunch while browsing articles and reading comics mostly on my computer. I did also read a bit of _A Bride's Story 15_ here and there through the afternoon. I realize I prefer reading books, whether comic books or not, so I plan to do more. Then I wrote up much of the rest of Thursday's daily update. I stopped to go into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked my villain supergroup on Hezabell, my higher-level member, to see if anyone was at the meeting. No one was, so I worked on the beginning of the weekend auction house on a few characters, including Octavia Ballad, whose full name I messed up in my last entry. I called her Octavia B. Next, I went back to my villain supergroup meeting on Hezabell. This time I found Seb's Marius, and we began roleplaying. Our most regular member joined us, then Doc, the leader, one of the newest members, and Anya, the character of the new member who joined first in this batch. Our roleplaying changed to debating what to do and ended up with a short trial we'd missed last week. We resumed roleplaying to tie the trial to our group's collection of magic. After that roleplay session, our group broke up. I worked on the in-game auction house, storage and crafting on Hezabell. T hen I played a bit by myself on her, and collected some badges, too. I had dinner with main nurse and finished reading _A Bride's Story 15_. As a manga, it was quick, since it's a long comic book. {Smile}

After dinner, I went back to my computer and finished Thursday's daily update. Then I found a note from Kitten asking me to help them test a character they're redeveloping. I dashed into City of Heroes: Homecoming, hoping to find them still awake. I found Kitten on a not-quite-full team doing individual missions. I joined them, and we did two or three missions before the team broke up. Kitten told me to pick what to do next. We did a beginning-endgame individual mission to test the character. It went well, so I picked a more advanced individual mission, which we had to tone down a lot. We did two slightly easier ones. Next, we talked a fair bit. I played Cross Stitch World. After that, I worked on the in-game auction house and storage. Then I wrote in this and switched to making notes. I took a break to check Amazon and another to read a web article before I finished making notes in this. I finished my evening with the Lord's Prayer, Saint Francis's Prayer, and the motto of the Daughters of the King. {Smile}
