I’ve spotted delights this past week on the fediverse and in my local world that I shared out to the fediverse.

I went out for a run Saturday morning. At the 8 km mark I had run along the waterfront, through Point Pleasant Park, and was returning across some train tracks when I tripped. My left big toe struck the rail, then my left knee hit the pavement. I tried to twist to protect my front, landed on my left elbow, and then stopped my motion with my right elbow. Each of those impact points were scraped, but my left elbow was left swollen. It’s still not back to full range of motion, but the pain has mostly subsided.

Anisa Francoeur’s Pride tattoo pieces at the Halifax waterfront were a highlight of my run there Saturday.

I made it to Monster Comic Lounge for Free Comic Book Day on Saturday. I mostly picked up comics for Celestine, but got a couple I was interested in, including a preview of the upcoming Unico reimagining. I bought Kelly Thompson’s new comic, Black Cloak, and a pen and paper game, Paper App Dungeon, on a whim.

Yesterday I received real mail! @MidniteLibrary sent me a postcard and a zine, making my day. I’m looking forward to reading his Games on My Shelf (I Have Not Played Yet) during lunch.

I picked up new glasses today, so it’s time for one of my periodic selfies with a neon triangle filter.

On my walk back to work after picking up my new glasses, I saw hundreds of slugs crossing the sidewalk I was moving along. It was during a pause in the rain that has been falling all day. I’ve seen worms fill sidewalks after rain before but never slugs in this number.

Today I started what I intend to be a play through of Paper App Dungeon, doing one floor each day.

On floor 1 I made it out without a scratch and with one coin.

Today’s floor in Paper App Dungeon took me a lot of backtracking, but netted me a good amount of coins.

I moved offices at the end of April and only now realized I have a standing desk at work. I’m looking forward to taking advantage of this.
