Update: the basket contains jamón serrano.

That's all I want for Christmas.

Spaghetti

Reasonable. The ultimate comfort food.

We here at GOG getting X4: Foundations on the first day. I am so happily surprised.

I keep installing and uninstalling #3. I think I'm intimidated by the series. :P

NOT surprised by that. There is a lot to these games so a lot to learn. Neither X3:TC nor X3:AP has a meaningful tutorial so either you experiment a lot, read a lot or watch a bunch of videos to learn things.

When I was a kid, THIS was 4x space empire strategy.

Moviepass actually had a movie available to go see today!

Sure, I had to go the theater at 10am to buy a ticket for a 4:20pm showing
to make sure I actually got a ticket before they stopped selling them for the
day and sure there were a lot of bus rides involved and sure it was cold
and raining but, still... Yay me! :|

Holiday weekend and two full bottles of whiskey. Yes, that makes me so very happy.

As I was about to uninstall a game, I found a reason to keep it.

Mars InSight touchdown.

It's airing live on the Science Channel




Wait a minute...



WTF!?!?

New glasses are making a big difference with nighttime driving. Cut the glare a bunch and just generally helping with low-light situations. And the new prescription Serengeti sunglasses are as good as I remember them being from long ago.

Even though the eye surgery last summer didn't put things at 20-20, it's close enough that I can opt to go without glasses and still function decently. The prescription is also quite light compared to what I used to have. Pleased with how it turned out.

You get the science channel in Madagascar?

Only days from wrapping up our last house so we can finally enjoy our new home. Damn, moving is pretty exhausting!
