Daily Update, August 8, 2026

The night before Saturday, I got to bed a few minutes after 2 am again. I thought I was running earlier, but somehow not. {small smile}

I had breakfast with my main nurse, his TV, and forward Day by Day. After breakfast, I went onto my computer. I read articles and comics and watched videos through lunch and well into the afternoon. I did take a break to play a character on the new account who I made to give the account her name. I finally got her out of the tutorial, and up a few levels. I even got her some boosts to help her for a while. Then I got into reading a story sample on Amazon that kept me reading, fascinated, but was too expensive to buy so I could continue. After the story, I wrote up Friday's daily update, finishing right at dinner time. I had dinner with my main nurse, his TV, and _Overgeared 2_.

After dinner, I went back to my computer and into City of Heroes: Homecoming. I checked on my friends who play the game. I also talked with Nox on Discord. Then I checked on my friends in City of Heroes: Homecoming again. I started to play Topaz Proudfoot. I got back to the story arc she'd started the other night. I got invited to another story arc someone was doing while I was doing the last mission. I finished my mission and story arc and joined them. Dr. Faustus said hi during the first mission, which went fine. I asked them to join us. The leader added them after a mission that went pretty well. The next two missions were much harder; hard enough for Dr. Faustus to leave in disgust afterwards. Or they would have if the group hadn't broken up before they could. I already meant to join them, so the quick dispersal worked for me. We did some of my missions, finishing the less connected stuff I wanted Topaz to do, and starting a story arc that we both enjoy. We also did one mission to start another contact. Next, we said goodnight. I worked on the in-game auction house, storage and crafting on Topaz. I checked the character I'd played earlier. After that, I free-wrote at length for my class. Then I did a tiny bit of writing in this before I switched to making notes for most of it. I finished my evening with the Lord's Prayer, Saint Francis's Prayer, and the motto of the Daughters of the King. {Smile}
