Today’s deck is the Good Omens Tarot.
I don’t watch TV so I cannot tell you how accurate of a deck it is, but quality-wise it’s one of the best there. And before anyone goes “But Fer you can watch it on Poob” when I say “I don’t watch TV” what I mean is “I rarely have a chance let alone the motivation to sit down and enjoy media that I cannot consume while walking on my way to or from something else”.
It’s not ideal, it’s not what I want, it’s just my reality with the current priorities.
Today’s reading congratulates me on making the right choice when being dealt a bad hand.
Dunno, I feel like I’m still stumbling on that one.
I dragged my ass out of bed to be on the lookout for when the mailman came by to pick up the latest batch of boxes.
In total, this run for Mandarake had 13 boxes. And while yes, that’s A Lot, only 4 of those boxes were big ones. As you saw me talk about it a couple of weeks ago, a lot of the contents were books, and books, as you might expect, are heavy as shit, so rather than fill a size 140 box with a bunch of manga making it like 80kg, I instead filled a bunch of smaller size 100 boxes.
I don’t really expect much money from this, especially given how many loose figures I crammed into the box, but I don’t really do it for the money, I do it because I’d rather someone else eventually get it rather than throwing it in the trash and maybe I’ll get the money of sending it via mail back while at it.
I went out to the post office because they called me. I sent a thing via EMS yesterday so I went there just in case they needed me to take the box back with me. Thankfully it was just a… clarification of semantics I guess? Think the sort of thing where you declare you have a toy and then they go “there’s no toy here, there’s a figure though”, when you declared it as a Toy because kaitori counters count figures as toys.
While going through that I got called by Rakuten, I guess they were confirming my ID. I had to take the call while outside and a problem I have is that I tend to have difficulty with spoken conversation… in any language really.
My hearing is quite good, it’s more just that sometimes my brain forgets to parse words, so I’m usually asking people to repeat themselves not because I didn’t hear the words but because the words became just sound for a moment.
Now add to it being in a different language, and… yeah.
I was gonna prepare stuff to go to the beach tomorrow, but I saw every camera battery was discharged so I made a specific choice: Instead of stumbling daily in frustration I’m gonna take this week (and perhaps part of next) to make prep for summer photoshoots, so that when the sea calls me I already have a girl and a costume lined up.
I do have my birthday trip, but that’s in two weeks and I have two months’ worth of stress piling on my back. So I could really use the winding down since earlier.
