Ted watching the rain.
Thunderstorm just rolling over the village, but the house battery is fully charged and I need not fear the inevitable power cut.
Last real day of work tomorrow.
Mainly meetings. Monday is do nothing day and Tuesday is the last day. Catching up with people Tuesday for lunch.
It’s almost over.
Submitted another assessment, and passed the two I submitted last night. Phew!
Gotta wait for the quizzes to open, and complete the last two assessments on WHS, and I should be good.
I really hope I hear back about that job I interviewed for on Tuesday. I’m trying not to think too hard on it, just remain hopeful but not dwell. It’s so hard because I’d freaking love it. Argh!
Good luck! It’s their loss if they don’t contact you :)
🤞🤞🤞🍀🍀🍀
Good morning Melburnians. There will be sunshine, wind, rain, possible storms. A little for everyone today.
Have to head back to melbs on PT… bugger.
Luckily the trains have roofs. You’ve got this.
Good morning. It’s will be an interesting one for sure.
Definitely a hold on to your hats kinda day.
Someone’s playing guitar real late. It’s pleasant though. Twangy, slow, country/blues-esque tune, a lilty voice that’s too faint to make out.
It’s a vibe and I’m vibing
Just booked flights back to Perth for first time in about 6 years. Family excited. They come over here a lot so I haven’t been totally neglectful but yeh haven’t been back since pre COVID
This is great news. 😊
Today I am trying to cut as much dairy out of my diet as I can. Just to see how bad this intolerance/allergy really is.
Otherwise, weight loss continues. clothes getting baggy. 😊
I hope you find what you’re looking for. 🙂
I should go in for testing like miss seagoon did 😵💫
pounds desk RAIN. RAIN. RAIN. RAIN
Please accept my apologies for bringing an umbrella to work today. The delay in actual rain is entirely my fault.
It will pour when I get off the train and walk home
Listened to a podcast about a guy who pretended to be a Saudi prince and defrauded people out of millions of dollars. He managed to access a credit card with a limit of $200 million and no one really knows how he did it. I am astonished.
people voted for Trump, nothing astonishes me any more
If you’re attractive, friendly and confident I bet one could do all sorts of crazy shit tbh
The rain has stopped and best sky pretty I’ve seen in a while
1st decent-ish haul, bit late:
Many more on the way (hopefully).
Gorgeous colour.
they look great 😊
Happy to get a few this year lol. Last year was a write-off.
They’re so pretty! 😍
Keys to the old house handed it. Good riddance, hope they knock it down.
Less great it looks like the next door neighbour who helped himself to our garage is going to be an ongoing problem. No, your tradies may not traipse back & forth through my house all day. Grrr.
Waking up at 530 completely refreshed is not usual for me.
Things of note today
2nd last of current role. Tidying up some things for handover and that’s pretty much it.
New AC game out, which shall be purchased swiftly
My new cannabis script is arriving at some stage.
Gonna be a good day
New AC game out, which shall be purchased swiftly
NOOOOOOO. Read a review or something first. People have got to stop giving ubisoft money if the game is shit. I stress the IF there. If its good go nuts! Took me ages to get my wife to see she was in an abusive relationship with AC games. She hate played odyssey and I had to put my foot down after she was yelling at the tv.
I have read reviews and watched gameplay videos over the past while.
Looks better than previous iterations.
And honestly, I’ve enjoyed each AC game to some extent. Valhalla was a low point for me, but had fun at the start. Mirage was decent, with a fine story.
By all accounts this one is an improvement over the previous RPG ones.
Valhalla didn’t gel with me for some reason after awhile, maybe it was the itemization.
I can’t say I’ve been following Shadows but I have heard about the twin protag thing and I’m not really sure I’m so keen on it being a dual protag game.
I’ve got Xenoblade Chronicles X today to pick up, I think Shadows can wait for a discount or something.
I’m actually looking forward to the dual protagonist thing. Syndicate was fine with it, but the characters were too close to each other. This one offers two very different gameplay styles.
From what I’ve seen combat is better then before and actually requires a bit of skill. They seem to have taken cues from Ghost of Tsushima.
In any case, got nothing else to play at the moment, so this should do me nicely. I’m off work next week, so can fully immerse myself in it.
I’ll keep my eye out on Shadows as I do love the Japanese setting. I’m hoping we’ll see Ghosts of Yotei later this year somewhere.
Let me know how Shadows go after you’ve had a good play session or two out of it.
Will do. I’ll probably post my feelings and experiences later today, or tomorrow.
GOY is my most anticipated game this year (I’m pretty certain it’s a 2025 release).
Hoping AC is big and decent enough to hold me over until the official announcement for the other one.
Well that didn’t take long to escalate.
Apparently there’s going to be a day 1 patch due to complaints about shrines and temples.
"The day one patch will make tables and shelving located in in-game shrines indestructible and will reduce non-essential depictions of bloodshed taking place in shrines and temples. In addition, when attacking unarmed NPCs, there will no longer be depictions of blood. "
pork katsu bento. how bloody good! starting to like the miso soup as well.
I’ve always been a bit meh on miso soup. It’s ok enough, but if it wasn’t there I wouldn’t miss it. Everything else in a bento is delicious.
