A Day Of Broken Things
Mar. 16th, 2026 03:37 amOn the bright side of things, I'm pretty sure the walls are finally DONE. I'll take another look in the daylight, since I did to a couple of small fixes (and a sand) this evening, but I think they're done now. Hopefully.
On the other hand, today has been A Fucking Day, omfg.
Started off with this morning thinking I'll do a quick coat of one of the walls while the cats were eating breakfast. Had to add some more paint to the tray, but whatever that happens.
And then I somehow fucking broke the tray. Split it up the middle! Luckily not the whole way, most of the deep part was okay, but holy shit there was a VERY FRANTIC session of painting fucking ALL THE WALLS to get the paint out of the tray and NOT on the floor. I did okay at that, I think? Spill was pretty minimal, considering. But yeah, all the walls, including some of the upper walls, just in the middle but... yeah. Paint!!!
This was of course all before fucking breakfast for me. Ugh.
And then! This afternoon! I was playing Terraria with everyone, which was nice, and Sushi was whining about food (despite it being like. 45min until kittydinnertime at that point), and he decided he was going to bite my monitor in protest of the extremely unfair "dinner is the same time every day, beanboy" position I took. First couple of times it was just him being a dick as usual, and I shooed him off, but then! He fucking BIT THROUGH AND CRACKED THE SCREEN.
Yeah.
Monitor is dead, it'll turn on, and show picture for a second or so, and then black screen. Nothin'. Soooo gonna have to get a new goddamn monitor. I'm using my old one right now, and ugh. It works but it's nowhere near as nice. ;;
I also broke the handle of an old rusty paint scraper I've been using to clean paint trays, but that's no big deal. Amusing that the handle broke down first, honestly. But given the day's track record I absolutely did not do any real cooking, or anything else that involved things I cannot deal without because woooow. What a fucking day.
Bed now! Tomorrow will probably be better! Or at least less full of paint, bleh. Though if I am done with the walls that does mean I'm back to cleaning/sanding/filling again, nooooo...
