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!

I've waited 20+ years for a sequel to come out … Continue reading ‘First Impressions’: “Baldur’s Gate 3”
This is not a drill: “Baldur’s Gate III” is official!
Link, via comicbook.com: Baldur's Gate 3 "Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn" is my all-time favorite video game. I probably spent hundreds of hours playing it (and its expansion, "Throne of Bhaal"), trying different party combinations, different quests that I skipped, and harder difficulties, to varying degrees of success. Nearly 20 years later, we … Continue reading This is not a drill: “Baldur’s Gate III” is official!
