requiemsMy body has added another food to its "no we can't eat that" list and I knew it was likely from the prior occasion buuuuut this one confirmed it, which is how I'm awake at 7am and have only just climbed into bed now I'm not semi-living in the bathroom. Said food is sorbet. How sugar flavoured ice is causing an issue I don't know: nothing on the ingredients list is a trigger. The more fun recent one was the brand of tinned pineapple being different than usual and my body deciding it can eat it as is... but not reheated as leftovers, whilst the usual is fine don't care whatever. There is no other ingredient in this but pineapple. I don't understand that one at all lmao.
Whilst waiting it out (and trying to move around a little between bathroom visits) I started tackling emptying my bookcases in anticipation of putting doors on them - they need to be dusted and wiped down first, and for basic safety, should also be cleared - and did six of eighteen slots. True I did half of two earlier today but had an epiphany that I could stack books in portions of my new kallax whilst also putting figures carefully into drawers and/or boxes. My desk is mostly clear; it now has three large boxes on it that can be moved onto my bed whilst the new bookcases are assembled, though I still need to empty remaining drawers, which I'll do next. Old bookcases and doors may not even be next time we do furniture assembly depending on how long new plus doors takes, how long it takes me to do it and if I can find other places to stash everything in it that doesn't require the new bookcases being assembled, but we'll see how far I manage...
It's so bitty and frustrating because I have to be so regimented and careful about how much gets done when and I won't see any benefit from it for months. But I'm trying, whilst also having to fend off my parents expecting more progress than I can give... it didn't help that we were delayed by a few weeks due to an Ikea mess up so I couldn't even start cleaning things and rotating them around whilst other furniture is changed out or upgraded, but again. Trying despite my body's continuous bullshit.
I finished levelling Sorbet's jobs to 90 last Friday; she theoretically still has culinarian to do from zero, but she also has another five weeks of road to 90 left because I finished up in two months. Her job pool is pure magic, so three healers, four casters, starting from roughly level 52 except for astrologian which was 30, and sage at 70 and picto at 80.
Theoretically, I should take a break from hard levelling, as I did S'triyx (from zero, also seven total) then Sorbet back to back. Unfortunately, it is very habitual. I've veered back over to Ashe to get her last few jobs to 90 and working on Amélie's jobs, but levelling is so slow without the bonus, particularly in 50/60s range... so now I'm considering the ludicrous idea of okay what if I temporarily move Amélie to a preferred world, level all eight of her remaining jobs from nothing whilst getting another five up to maybe 80, and bring her back to Ultros afterwards. I should not do this, but I'm thinking about doing this... Rems you don't need a third all jobs wol... lol, says Rems.
I should work on Yulia but they just put Seraph back onto New world status, which has now been renamed Preferred+, so she can't free transfer out as I understand it. I also increasingly don't know what jobs to level on her other than gnb and sch... Yorva's existence has her take the remaining obvious ones (machinist and viper). I think I'd like to skip Kaesumi, but idk about having yet another wol in pre-DT when I have so much trouble many of DT's dungeons visually... I haven't done 7.3 yet, but man, I am looking forward to the possibility of maybe being lightning aspect free in the near future. My poor eyes.
Now mogtomes is over, I should really get back to Stormblood msq... or other games I wanted to play, woops.
In the meantime: yeah it was absolutely worth doing last minute pvp for this.
