Daily Update, June 17, 2025

On Tuesday, my relief nurse took me to the monthly picnic. I found them with two tables spread with food, but only the one they were sitting was ours. I did enjoy their company. I also told them I might be leaving early when creative writing begins next month. My relief nurse did come and take me home afterwards. {Smile}

I didn't get any exercise again. I was busy with the teen supergroup for several hours around dinner, and didn't get to it later. {smile}

After the picnic, I had a small lunch at home. Then I wrote up my daily update, with breaks to play Cross Stitch World and read web comics. I stopped writing before I was done to go to the teen supergroup meeting. We roleplayed and ran a mission that completed the story we started last week that the leader made. Then we just roleplayed. I tried to get them to do some badge hunting with me that ought to improve some of the characters. Only one joined me. The rest preferred roleplaying. The one who did only did what I already had done on my character. Then he rushed off to roleplay with the rest, saying he'd get the rest done later. The part he skipped is what I needed help with to finish because my character is too low-level to do it on my own like he can. However, we wanted to join the roleplaying we were missing. I joined it, too, but I had trouble getting into it. I was mostly quiet until dinner. I kept thinking about how somehow my attempt to help them while they helped me just turned into an imposition {rueful smile}

After dinner I went back into City of Heroes: Homecoming and joined the teen supergroup, where three were roleplaying a game of minigolf in a supergroup base with an area set up for that. I was still quiet. After the rest left, the leader and I talked about how it hadn't gone how I hoped. I'm not sure what her conclusions are, but I think she wants to help me. I did message her later, trying to explain my side, but I'm struggling for the right words. Near the end of our talk, Dr. Faustus invited me to join him for missions in a low-level villain zone. I did, and we started a mission. Then Phonso invited us to a trial. I think we finished the mission, then joined him. we ran that trial and two more like it with the teams Phonso recruited. After the third trial, they both left. I did some paperwork and finally tried to explore a newly completed zone. Unfortunately, I need a new map. I tried to get one but gave up and started making notes in this. I paused to try some more of the map but was still unsuccessful. After that, I finished these notes later than usual. {smile}
