Coughed from 2am to 5am last night. Gonna get the only prescription-free bronchodilator I can use from the chemist and before resorting to the GP, who will probably be more sympathetic than the respiratory clinic guy.

That seems unhelpful and shortsighted.

Phone progress going well, got a response from uber hopefully I can get this resolved. Found a rad browser (iceraven - tempted to use this on desktop too), a great tasks app, painter thankfully brings back amoled black theming and not this rubbish Material You grey whatever the fuck, got the rest of my apps working smoothly...

Need to find some solutions for customising notification bar (Tasker apparently does this - I want the date and my battery bar back up the top rather than squinting at a tiny battery icon)

But first I need to massively drag myself away from all this and get packing for my flight tomorrow ๐Ÿ˜…

e: whoa, surprised that they actually responded to me within 5 minutes of my reply, it's all fixed now! Hurrah!!

Ooh, I can hand write on the phone with the stylus and it converts it into text. Not sure at this point if it is any quicker than the on screen keyboard, but it does a pretty decent job of handwriting recognition.

Two more SERIOUS PANIC!!! situations arose today with the phone just in the last hour - but within half an hour they were both resolved, and I can only think that maybe someone has been sending me blessings and putting in a good word for me with the universe.

peril!Firstly, just as I was walking to the chemist my entire body sank like a stone when I remembered my stimulant prescription was an e-prescription AND I DIDN'T BACK UP MY TEXTS PROPERLY. Cue panic and desperation as my prescriber is on holiday for 2 more weeks and I only have enough meds to last me for one. I'm thinking - I am SUCH an idiot, this means more hours of troubleshooting to figure out how to get those messages over... but then I had the most wonderful person at my chemist who was in fact able to find a way to access all my e-prescriptions by accessing some safe list thing! She could've very easily fobbed me off but no...

And secondly - as I was out panicking I realised mobile data wasn't working on my phone for some reason - thought alright, there's another bloody headache... came home, swapped the sim card to a different slot and that was all there was to it. Crisis! Averted!

Chilling out with some Good Omens s2 with piles of dinner before I have a good shower and finish packing. I am really enjoying this season even more than the first, not just because of all that Jon Hamm...

Starfield needed an update, okay sure. Only issue was it was hanging around 2.7mb of like a 11mb download. But still having a lot of issues and such, trying to get it to install. Cancel the update, etc. And then xbox decides to just... uninstall it. So now I have to install a 117GB file.

Fuck me.

The case for the new phone arrived today, so I have transferred the sim over and it has been given Primary Phone status. My preferred alarm app is installed and alarms set, hopefully it wakes me up at the right time for work tomorrow.

I don't know why, but I'm always a bit reluctant to use new things for a while - some sort of combination of wanting the familiarity of what I am used to and being scared I will wear out the new thing and it won't be special any more.
