Slept from midnight to nine.
Woke for a short time around five.

High of sixty and mostly cloudy.

Goals:
- Penguicon? If I feel like it.
  Nah.
- Play with a D&D thing
  A bit.

Haircut.

Vacuumed, watered plants, tidied slightly.

I'm not particularly guilty of this, but I recognize an unmet need in myself.

> Science wasn’t actually certain how fungi like cordyceps “hijacked” their host’s behavior, and we always kind of assumed it was causing some simplistic damage to the brain. As it turns out, it works much more elaborately and much MORE like the dramatized sci-fi horror parasites constantly inspired by it. These fungi integrate themselves on the cellular level with the host’s tissues, actually seem to send signals to the host’s muscles and even alter the host’s genes with their own.
> All the while, THE BRAIN ISN’T INVADED AT ALL. These fungi, all along, have been converting their hosts into animal-fungal hybrids they control while the host’s brain and consciousness remain helplessly alive and largely unaltered.

Twenty-minute walk in the afternoon.
Warm and partly sunny.

Washed a load of laundry.
