  1. A friend with a weird medical thing has it worked out.
  2. Someone from my FC did a beautiful sketch of my FFXIV character, in a rather Yoshitaka Amano-like style. (Which is really appropriate – he did concept sketches for a lot of previous Final Fantasy games.)
  3. It’s sunny, which is good because it’s the day to wash the bath mat and towels. Hurrah for being able to dry them on the line!
