I am actually sitting on my apartment building's front porch, watching runners and walkers for the "University of Louisville 10-Miler" road race go by. It's nice to get some fresh air on occasion! Well, what is new in my life since my last post? I applied for, and got accepted to, a Graduate Certificate program … Continue reading Changes Are Afoot

Mentally Exhausted – Recharge!
The mental exhaustion is from working two jobs, studying some videos to get re-certified in A+, a lot of video gaming (not a bad thing!!), and not enough sleep. "Burning the candle at both ends." Speaking of gaming, Baldur's Gate 3 continues to remain amazingly fun. I've started using a few mods - mainly, class … Continue reading Mentally Exhausted – Recharge!
‘Night Walks’: “Villain”
It's a weird thing with me: whether it's in a board game or a video game, I have a very hard time playing as the 'villain' or 'the bad guy'. In Betrayal at House on the Hill (and various versions of that game), you could end up being the villain strictly via the luck of … Continue reading ‘Night Walks’: “Villain”
‘Night Walks’: “Smorgasbord”

The 80 Days of January – Almost Over!
Surprisingly, this isn't about the U.S. Presidential Elections results.... ... although having this "President" inaugurated on the same day as Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day is an absolute insult.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So, January 2025 has been one of the longest, most frustrating months in a very long time. The main sources of frustrations have been money … Continue reading The 80 Days of January – Almost Over!

2024 is starting to wind down. “Best Of/Recap of 2024” lists and shows are popping up, Christmas music, lights, and commercials are on in full force, and there's about 3 hours of daylight outside. Here’s my recap of the year: Endings and BeginningsEndingsTinder/Bumble. In 2022 (I think), I joined Tinder; a few months later, I … Continue reading Wrap-Up of 2024!

After a 45-minute play session, here are my thoughts and breakdown.NOTE: there are some small spoilers.
