1. A friend who has been absent from FFXIV for quite a long time came back today and weā€™ve had a chat. 2. Feels like Iā€™m managing to fit in a lot of stuff today. 3. My [toberead](https://www.beeminder.com/shanaqui/toberead) pile goal really jumped up after a little book spree on my holiday, but Iā€™ve been steadily whittling it down again and Iā€™m pretty proud of my progress. ---

Today our garden had a lizard, scrub turkey, magpie, butcherbird, and kookaburra all at the same time. 3.

1. Iā€™ve finished Time of the Cat and it was a LOT of fun. 2. I was able to take the day off work to catch up on sleep and recover from some mild side-effects from yesterdayā€™s COVID vaccination. I could have worked through it, but I have plenty of sick leave and taking a day off was nice. ---
