16 more days until the month is over

 

Not too many days until Fall and September comes around 🍁🍂
 

Bit cooler out today… might start getting colder in the coming weeks, possibly

 

Think I should start taking a jacket just in case…

Who the EFF designed the physics of this game?! By the way, how are enemies allowed to pass through walls, while your characters can’t?! Why does hitting a wall reverse your trajectory?! Why are there forty-eight levels of this insanity?! And why did I buy this?!

Finished up Cascoon,Crobat, Raichu,Honchkrow and Prinplup today so far, so it’s progress

 

Since I’m in the Mirelands since i was finishing up Honchkrow, working on Kirlia currently 

 

Some of these I’ve been waiting or resetting Mass Outbreaks for… taking so long though…

 

i was an idiot and accidentally released several Vulpix when i needed those for Ninetales.. so I’m going to have to wait for ANOTHER Outbreak…

 

Gotten 3 Shinies today, though so that’s something 

 

There’s a Path of Solitude for that i can do for Togekiss… going to have to grind up a Wornadam first…

Remembered i can access AppleTV a few nights ago

 

So logged into that… a lot of Snoopy/Peanuts Stuff - going to have to binge watch those at some point

 

Also getting closer and closer to finishing the Arceus Dex.. still have a lot of Legends to catch though

 

Finally got the last Vespiquen earlier so that page is finally done…

 

Think the Fossils will take awhile since i need to catch more of those.. guess I’ll work on that next then

Well, Hurricane Hillary is hitting the West Coast. Hopefully my area isn't struck too bad. 

Franklin is due to hit us during Go Fest this weekend

went to weird pride-in-august thing here yesterday. it's uh. super corporate but it was fun enough.

seeing all the queers turn out is always nice. but it's so fucking hot like what a horrible idea.

apparently when they started doing the current ones like 20 years ago or so, there was already something going on in june so they were just like "oh okay" and moved it to the hottest fuckin month of the year down here. not like there's this whole historic event specifically in june or anything lol

Just to update: I’m fine. The rain and wind was heavy, but thankfully my place took basically zero damage.  
 
An area near my place… Oh boy. A huge tree fell down around there. It was something to behold. 
 
It was a little bit of a blessing, though, since my location barely gets any rain as is.  
 
But, man, driving in that storm was a nightmare. Thank gosh the police did their job, and my car was good to take care of this.

We're still recovering from the flood a couple weeks back, not enough labour for all the repairs and dumpster collection. Franklin still looking to hit us and dump 50 mm more rain this weekend.

ahhhhhhhh, i quit my job and feel such peace flower; bit of a shame since i actually did still enjoy it and love the people there, i'm not burnt out or anything but when you start hiring people at a full dollar more than i'm making after a year and a half, welp.

 

think i'm gonna chill for a few weeks until after the game grumps show i'm going to then i'll start looking seriously y; it's nice to have some time to just chill

I'm job hunting as well, but can't leave my current job yet.

 

Both locations I'm working at lost their center directors (both ultimately tied up to visa situations afaik), which means corporate took over management for the time being, and yeesh are their policies terrible. One location is closing down soon, we're cancelling folks' appointments day of on an almost daily basis because corporate doesn't think there's enough appointments to justify staff (we'd still turn a profit lmfao)--which, relatedly, means my hours went to shit--and just all sorts of "yeah, fuck this shit, I'm out."

 

I really hope I can score a job at Lawrence Livermore that I applied to. Entry level, segues nicely in my photonics/optics specialization, and actually lets me continue to develop a career in photonics after a lot of that went to shit when my thesis advisor disappeared for 2+ years. But LLNL hiring is notoriously slow af, so even if I can score it longterm, I'll probably need at temp job anyway. And, honestly, I'll be down for anything fulltime as long as I'm not a salesperson; I need the consistency more than anything else.

Aside from the legendary mons I haven’t caught yet, almost done with the Dex entries I currently have

 

Just need to do Ninetails, Dialga and Palkia

 

Looks like there’s a Path of Solitude i can do with Hisuian Arcanine against Ninetails I didn’t know about…

 

Though, need to beat one more Ninetails with a Water type move.. which has been difficult considering I haven’t seen another Vulpix MMO yet…

 

So will be able to continue the post game when I’m done with these - and whatever side missions available for the other legends

 

And derped and didn’t save between a Shiny and a Vulpix MMO so i lost a Shiny Floatzel last night

 

Oh well - not the end of the world- I’ll get another one at some point anyway, so wasn’t extremely rare or special pokemon 

 

Caught one or two anyway already… and shinies aren’t exactly the most difficult to get in the game, so not a big deal
