Home, the land of milk and honey and long walks in the woods and Mom's Thanksgiving dinner. It was a great Thanksgiving. Only the four of us were there; Dad (being Dad) wanted to invite some friends, but Mom said no. So it was just family time. I got to tell everyone about my latest work projects....
We're moving office in early December, so we need to box up all our stuff for the move. Ordinarily I'd be like, what a pain. But I was really excited at the thought of needing to come in to the office for a day. I could take a couple hours extra to walk around downtown and check out the plaza, the p...
I decided to start a solo Minecraft game so I could experience the start of the game organically. Part of the reason I didn't enjoy our early play sessions is that newbie was a bit too on-the-ball. On the first in-game day, when HGR and I were faffing about the overworld and punching sheep, newbie w...
Now that I've gotten used to Minecraft, I've decided it's decent. Exploration is more of a hassle than it should be—lack of a world map and fast travel will do that—but I'm getting the hang of it. I orient myself using the sun; I leave torch trails and build wayhouses and try to always carry enough ...
After a good night of sleep, I decided to just cancel the grocery order lmao. Walmart contracts its grocery delivery out to Doordash, and there's some kind of communication/coordination issue between them. Like yesterday, Walmart prepped my order for delivery, made substitutions and everything, and ...
So we've been getting groceries via curbside delivery for several months now, and it has been timely and reliable UNTIL YESTERDAY. Walmart, you had a good run. The delivery was scheduled for 4 to 5 pm. I headed out at 4 pm, which is not strictly necessary, but I figured I'd get in a walk before th...
So far, the most fun I've had with Minecraft is with character creation. newbie and I both designed our own characters. His is a cross between a vtuber and his FFXIV character; mine is loosely based on Kaeya. HGR was clearly not about to design anything, so I went online and found him a skin titled ...
I used to have a lot of BIG OPINIONS about FF characters I hated, and a lot of those have mellowed over time; so here's a couple of old opinions revisited. I actually wrote this in mid-October and was going to add to it but never got around to it, so I'm just going to post it. === Rinoa: still t...
october in review: lots of video games, lots of hanging out with friends, lots of drawing. good times. playing terraria with the group. I’d given up slightly because I was always the one trying to get the group together, but tonight HGR was like “hey what happened to terraria” and I felt great. als...
(pictured: R.J., a character I made last year with pet rats. This is unrelated to iyazo getting his pet rats, but I thought it was kind of a cool coincidence that he was posting lots of pics of his rats while I was also doing rat art) I drew something 30 out of 31 days this month. Pretty good! Out...
I entered the chat just as numbers was saying, "I kicked newbie for saying uwu." "That's fair," said Dante. "That's a fair kick." === WE BEAT IFRIT WE BEAT IFRIT Can't believe we've been fighting this dude since literally July. Also, flashback to March 1, nearly eight months ago: [1:10 AM] K...
