Alexis Bushnell (she/her)

So last night I started making a DnD character sheet for me, like me the actual human, so I can manage my energy using spell slots because I can visually see them and mark them off.

I'm putting daily activities as spells based on how much energy they take.

It also means I can use the levels of exhaustion to remind myself that I'm functioning at disadvantage.

OMFG not only did I not gain the benefits of a long rest last night, I took a level of exhaustion.

I spent most of the night cleaning up dog sick, including having to change my bed.

I feel absolutely and completely awful. And the electrician is coming soon so I have to move my desk so he can access the bit under my floor to run wires.

So Morrie continued being sick all morning. Finally stopped at 3pm and hadn't been sick again until just (midnight). Completely out of nowhere. So staring down another night of no sleep and probably an emergency vets appointment in the morning.

I've syringed some water into him to make sure he's hydrated.

It's so odd because the only symptom is the vomiting. He's not showing any signs of pain, his stomach isn't bloated, he's not lethargic, his poo is fine.

Why does this always happen at the worst times - a client down & dealing with awful long covid.

Omg now TiLi is being sick.

I don't understand. They must have picked up a bug from somewhere or something?

Morrie hasn't vomited since midnight now and he had a biscuit this morning and so far is ok.
But now TiLi. I just don't understand.

@alexisbushnell I love it. I would want to grant myself items to remind myself to do nice things. And my long rests really are not long enough. I should probably address that!

@leiawelsh oooh that has given me an awesome idea - I can only give myself the benefits of a long rest (on my character sheet) if I actually get 7 or more hours of sleep!

@alexisbushnell when you find the real life fireball spell for colleagues that obstruct your path, let me know!

@Pionir rofl! Wouldn't that be wonderful!

@alexisbushnell you find the following treasure in your quest. A +1 shield of protection against social interactions, ear muffs of silence and a scroll of recharge spoons which restores 1D4 spoons to your character ;)

@alexisbushnell I guess my character sheet would say I'm a level 55 dual classed Mathemagician / Code-Sourcerer. Xd hehe

@alexisbushnell sympathies. Very poor run of sleep this week here. Everything is inflamed. Going to try and recover some today and get a GP appointment.

@rgarner fingers crossed for the GP appointment for you.

@alexisbushnell Oh dear, mentioning the plan jinked the plan!

@alexisbushnell That sucks. Life’s modifiers have ruined that dice roll. ☹️ Best of luck for today and beyond.

@alexisbushnell Oh no! Hugs for them both 🤗

@alexisbushnell I hope they both recover soon. It is so worrying when animals are ill because they can't tell you what's wrong.
