Today's Keyboard Smash

Gloriously, my physical today was a complete non-event. The sole reason I was having it was to get a paper filled out for my insurance, so they will give me back some money for being a good patient who listens to doctors once a year at least. The doctor's perpetual state of "I don't really have time for this, but okay," which is a problem when I need actual attention, worked in everyone's favor. No actual, I don't know, physical exam occurred. Paperwork got filled out, blood work got ordered, I went away again. This is my idea of a blessed medical experience.

A moderately unpleasant grocery shopping experience (where did all these people COME FROM and why do they all need food RIGHT NOW?) was made worse by the grinding horror that is my knee joints in particular. But then I came home and farmed pinecones and acorns for DIY uses in Animal Crossing, while wearing an icepack across said knees. That's more like it.

I'm watching old fanvids this evening and idly wondering if I will ever manage to watch episodes of television again in my life. Maybe I just live in a perpetual land of podcasts now. How is it that I can listen to two hours of Productivity Alchemy*, a podcast about project organization and, as the title suggests, staying productive, but the idea of watching a forty-five-minute episode of an old show--digitized for a commercial-free experience, no less--makes my brain make overheating hard drive noises?

*this is not a dig at Productivity Alchemy, which I enjoy. It's just not what I would call "gripping narrative," after all.
