Daily Update, April 23, 2026

The night before Thursday, I went to bed a little before 2 am. I got up at 9 am, as usual. I didn't have much trouble with tiredness. However, I'm suspicious that some of my tiredness has been dehydration. I checked, and tiredness can be a symptom, as can dizziness and being confused. So, I have something new to try when I feel generally off. {smile}

Starting during breakfast, I had my online counselling appointment. I thought it was a good session. We covered a fair bit of ground. {Smile}

After counselling, I wrote up my daily update. Then I read comics over lunch, and a bit afterwards. Next, I cleaned myself up with the help of my main nurse. After that, I went back onto my computer and read a few more comics. I also made an online copy of the next story I want to work on for my class and sent copies to my cousin Kim and my housekeeper. Then I went into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I worked on the in-game auction house, storage and crafting I hadn't finished the previous night, and checked on my friends who play the game. I also talked with Pierogies and Dennis on Discord, the chat server. Next, I played by myself on the melee-ranged version of Olga, my lower-level villain supergroup member until someone invited me to a team. I got a moderately high-level character I haven't played recently and did several missions on her with the team until I was called to dinner. I also checked on my friends who play the game again. After that, I read Forward Day by Day over dinner. {Smile}

After dinner, I returned to City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game, and worked on the in-game auction house, storage and crafting from the afternoon. Then I checked Discord and replied to friends there. Back in City of Heroes: Homecoming, I debated what to do next when Dr. Faustus said hi. We teamed up and did two related story arcs over much of the evening. I gained a level. Dr. Faustus warned me that I should stop a level sooner than I planned to, to avoid missing content I want to do. When we finished the second story arc, we said goodnight. I worked on the in-game auction house and storage. During that, Shepherd said hi. I hadn't talked with him in quite a while. He came back a week or two ago, after a long absence. We talked while I finished up. Then I joined him. I realized he didn't have a badge that improves a character that. I could help him get relatively quickly. We did that and I gave him a link to the Wiki to help him find others. We talked, then said goodnight. I wrote a little in this, then quickly shifted to making notes. My only break was to check Cross Stitch World and play briefly despite not meaning to. I finished my evening with the Lord's Prayer, Saint Francis's Prayer, and the motto of the Daughters of the King. {Smile}
