Getting a MRI done on Friday which will kick off another rounds of tests and doctor appointments (seeing two new docs) for the next fee weeks. 🫠
On a much happier note, we went to the Stardew Valley concert and of course I cried so hard during it. Lol

The American Manga Awards is great starting point in bringing recognition to all the folks working on the localization, ESPECIALLY freelancers.
I truly believe there should be more awards & more spotlight on these folks.
