Bafflegab's Baker's End series and Radio Static's Minister of Chance are two excellent Doctor Who adjacent shows. The BBC podcast The Whisperer in Darkness is a great Lovecraft adaptation.
Since my tabletop game got canceled today... Relax from doing yard work yesterday, maybe work on my programming project a bit. Or trim the plants outside if it gets cool enough later.
This morning was getting rid of a little more of the twenty year's worth of pine needles and dead branches the previous owners of our house left us. Every little bit we get rid of makes us a little safer in the event of a wildfire. After the trip to the transfer station I'm now enjoying a cold beer and doing a little reading while my gf has her book club meetup. Later, sit outside with the cats, chat. Then the daily struggle to decide what to make for dinner.
We play a whole lot of MCR, Blink, Fall Out Boy, Panic!, and others but of course we have to throw in some crowd pleasers for the bar regulars. We're starting to add some Killswitch Engage to mix it up though!
I don’t know what it is about this year, but I feel like I’ve had a lot more problems with coughs than previous years. It’s probably the apocalypse lol
I was gonna go swimming in a river and run the rapids a bunch of times but we had a lot of rain last night so the river is probably gonna be high and muddy.
So probably stay home and play games and maybe go hiking later if rain clears up.
My Nanking cherry bushes are exploding with berries right now, so I'm going to go fill a big fat jar and get a cherry liquour going. Come September I'll have a lovely concoction that will sit forgotten in my fridge all winter.
It's rare that I manage to catch them when they're ripe and the birds haven't devoured them all. But the wet spring we've had so far has just made my hedge go nuts, and all the volunteers along the fence are covered in them too.
In terms of resourcefulness, I wish I could claim that. But this literally just involves throwing a bunch of cherries in a big jar with a buttload of sugar and letting it sit in the sun for a month or two, throwing in some cloves and cinnamon halfway through. It's about as low effort as it gets.
