Jun. 12th, 2016 12:54 pmE3 is today. That's the Electronic Entertainment Expo, and pretty much the biggest video game event of the year. I am excite. Well - it claims it runs from 14-16 June, but I'm guessing that's just when they let people wander around playing games on the show floor, because the presentations by video game companies start today. Which is where you get all the news about new and upcoming games, so is arguably the most exciting part. Unfortunately, because it's in America, our timezones are very different. I kind of wanted to watch some presentations live this year, if I could, because you never quite get all the news the next day from reports on it, and it's not the same as actually watching it. But the first one is at 1pm today, in America - which makes it 9pm here. The two presentations I care most about are Bethesda and Sony/Playstation - and they're on at 3am tonight and 2am tomorrow night respectively. Which would be rough. Also I have my ESA assessment this week, and I'm pretty sure I'm about to start my period. And my next kickboxing graduation is on Saturday, whereas I was assuming it would be next week, and I'm really ready to get my yellow belt but - ugh.
I actually had to come off the floor at kickboxing this week. My foot is still giving me trouble, and because of that and a variety of other mishaps I missed about four weeks of classes. And, to try and rest my foot, I haven't been going for a walk every day like I used to. So I think between a combination of being pretty out of shape and how hot it was on Wednesday, I started to feel dizzy and then nauseous on the mat about halfway through the lesson, and had to come off. And my foot's still hurting when I got up onto the ball of it, which is sort of infuriating. I went to my doctor and saw a minor injuries nurse, and she suggested an anti-inflammatory topical cream and more rest, and then if it still didn't clear up maybe a steroid injection - which she said she'd had, and was the most painful experience of her life, but she never had any problems with the joints in her foot since. So you know, pros and cons to that option. So anyway, I got some gel. But I read the leaflet to see how to use it, and it said to consult my doctor if I was on any pain medication or any medication at all. And as it was a minor injuries nurse and she didn't prescribe it or anything, I'm not quite sure if she checked it? Like, we didn't talk about it or anything. And it's probably fine, but I'm on pretty strong anti-inflammatories for period pains, and if I get my period this week I'm going to be taking them. So I'm probably going to wait till tomorrow to use it, and just call my doctor's to double-check.
My life is a mess.
Also I've been playing more Fallout 4. I tried to run through and do a bunch of the endings I didn't already do. ( Spoilers )
