I very nearly didn't do this. In the end, I only really decided to do it because a) tradition but also b) I would very, very, very much like to look back this time next year and breath a sigh of relief that my life has improved in a significant number of ways.
So... there's that.
Don't expect a lot of introspection though, because, honestly, I don't have the mental bandwidth for that right now.
I'm also not really in the mood to reminisce about a mostly shit year and one where when everything is potentially about to fall on it's ass in my life in the next month... or at best is going to be majorly fucking stressful.
Urgh.
But enough of my mental baggage, 2021.
Almost nothing happened this year. Days passed, things happened. But nothing HAPPENED. You know.
Like last year, I would have gone insane if not for my friends. And having a routine that actually got me out of the house more than once a week.
January: Friday night DnD finished our almost year and a half Descent into Avernus campaign. Still sad, still amazing.
February: I had a bout of dizziness that lasted a couple of weeks, involved a doctor's visit and then disappeared as quickly as it arrived.
March: My birthday. For which no shits were given by me. I developed a DnD character basically live on the blog. We went to the movies for the first time in over a year.
April: I shaved my head after threatening to do it about once a month since March 2020. It remains shaved.
May: We started a "non-campaign" campaign for the Thursday night Dnd Group.
June: I explored the DnD Cookbook. We started the new major Friday night DnD campaign. Critical Role Series 2 ended with a 7 hour game.
July: A roof leak. Getting Ma on the internets. Having to isolate for two weeks and it taking five and a half hours for my first test and 10 minutes for the second and third.
August: Roof/ceiling shenanigans continued, resulting in a hole cut in the ceiling.
September: I got my first vax shot. And I ran a one shot game for Fluffy's birthday. The hole in the ceiling got patched.
October: I got told my lease, which expires in February, isn't being renewed. I got my second vax shot. Friday Night DnD's two year anniversary.
November: My shoulder stopped being fully functional for no well explained reason. They finally fixed the actual roof leak.
December: The Christmas Tree went up (see also: Fuck Christmas). We did Board Game Christmas with Mr and Mrs again, followed by Movie Night with Fluffy. Christmas happened.
I did make a lot of additional DnD characters or sketches or ideas for use in place of actual photos this year. DnD was once again... very important in my life.
I didn't really do much in the way of movies this year... even older stuff.
What I will say is that Luca was great, Shang Chi was much better than I expected, Cruella SUCKED, as I knew it would, and Raya and the Last Dragon was uneven but 100% is a Disney movie with a lesbian lead/love story.
