alchemicinkI did not get nearly enough sleep as I should have this past week and work was busy, so there's not too much to share today.
Still have a few things to ramble about tho!
One fic rec: A nice little YGO fic about Yugi’s fashion choices.
Seasons Of Drabbles had fic reveals yesterday, and you can check them all out here. I'll make a post later this week sharing my gifts, my fics, and some other recs too (once I get a chance to actually start reading the collection).
Right now, all my writing focus is on Pod_together! Deadline is in a week and I don't want to ask for an extension 🤞 I made some good progress yesterday. Only a little bit more left to write!
...then I have to think of a title 😬😂

I agreed to housesit for my parents on Tuesday (mostly they just needed me to take care of their dog), so I took the opportunity to finish watching season one of Star Trek Prodigy (and the first two episodes of season 2). I really enjoyed it!! Though bingewatching makes it harder for me to remember the details now.
I maintain my earlier assessment that this series does a great job of introducing the world of Star Trek to new people. Which is wonderful I think! Tho as a long-time Trekkie, I didn't need the exposition myself. Still, the plot and characters were more than enough to keep me entertained otherwise.
The best part of the season was when Dal and Admiral Janeway accidentally swapped bodies, and Dal kept nervously doing finger guns at everyone 😂😂😂 I laughed so hard. Best episode of the season.
Watching Prodigy was the highlight of that day actually. It was another night of terrible sleep, part of which was interrupted by a mouse waking me up at 4:45 am 😒 I turned the light on and just stared at the mouse for a good long time before deciding to finish the night on the couch instead. (Mom told me they've since caught the mouse)

Currently, I'm really having fun with Ultraman Arc and Ultraman Blazar!
I posted my thoughts on Arc episodes 1-2 here on Friday. And I loved the new episode this week! I... may or may not have already watched it twice 😂 (YouTube makes it so easy to watch!)
I'm up to episode 10 of Blazar now, so I'll be writing another post about that soon too. Episode 9 was especially good!! Anri continues to be my favorite.
I keep stumbling across really cute fan art for both series! I need to make a tokurecs post soon~

Been a while since I shared a garden update. Thankfully July has been a lot rainier than June so I haven't had to water the plants daily like before.
The peppers are looking good. The eggplant has slowed down, but has some new blooms so they're not done yet. And I lost a tomato plant 😠not even to illness or bugs this time. It just got too big and the pot tilted over. At least the other two are still hanging in there. I've been eating a lot of tomatoes lately!
And that's it for this week's summary. Gonna be another busy week, so fingers crossed for things to be not-so-stressful.
Wishing everyone a smooth and easy week ahead!
