And what's something you're looking forward to?

I'll start. I had a tough project to scope and received great feedback from my higher ups so that was nice.

Looking forward to a lights exhibit at the park for the holiday season. Outside, can social distance. Will bring some hot chocolate in a thermos and that will be nice.

9 weeks of unemployment finally hit my bank account, so I am able to pay my bills and overall am much less stressed about money.

Also, my settlement for my totaled car should be coming any day now as well.

I also caught up on all my laundy, and cleaned my room. Life is coming back together after a really rough October, and a lot seems to be coming to fruition this week. Hopefully a job soon too.

Kriem :O

I pre-ordered my friend's book a few months back and it finally came in the mail on Tuesday. I've been reading it a bit each night. Probably gonna read a lot more over the weekend, so I guess I'm looking forward to that.
:D

fingers crossed. Yeah I'm behind on house chores, focusing on that tomorrow. I get really unhappy if my house is in disarray.

what is the book about? that's cool! I need to get better about reading. I was really good at the beginning of sheltering in place, would have a bedtime routine of 8pm do skincare, get in bed, read. But that's kinda gone to shit lately.

Monday was a snow day. I still had to be at work, but almost no students. I spent the day at work catching up on a mound of marking, and then playing Super Smash Bros Ultimate with a handful of students that actually showed up.

Wednesday was Remembrance Day, so no school. Thursday and Friday were scheduled days off.

I've been looking forward to this week for a long time. I'll have to get back to doing some work this weekend, though.

Yeah, all at once, ended up being like 3.5K, and now since the first payment went through, I should be getting it every two weeks now. Bitcoin prices went up in October, so I sold a bunch of that, which is what kept me afloat in October. No late payments, and no bounced accounts

aww I want to go somewhere with snow. We were looking at some like bed and breakfast places or cabins in the nearby (like...3 hours nearby) area. But wee decided to just save that for when those places will have xmas fests and the like next year so we can more enjoy it.

I'm jealous of the snow.

Sounds like a nice break.

It's fantasy. It's about a sister searching for her kidnapped, younger sister. Some people have a singing gift that lets them "control" elements. The kidnapped sister is a fire singer. The main character cannot sing (AS FAR AS I KNOW!). I actually read a snippet of it like 8 years ago when my friend and I were in a creative writing class together.

But yeah, I'm trying to get better at reading too. I made it through the prologue and am halfway through chapter 1. There aren't enough hours in the day.
:(

What's your skincare routine like? Do you use sunscreen? I started using lotion after washing my face. Like I didn't know I was supposed to do that until the Internet told me one day. Internet told me to always use sunscreen too, but I'm not outside much. lol office jobs

I can remember the name of the first game. It was a space game where you had like planets. And had to land on other planets to get points. I was going to win because of my character's special ability. But we couldn't finish it. Then, we played a card game called Palace. We've been playing a lot of that lately.

The other day, we played Unstable Unicorns (I won), and Death Wish (I did not win). Haha.

Technically I got the new tire on Saturday, but I finally fixed my bike over the weekend (the old tire spontaneously exploded, and I had to jump through a couple hoops to get a replacement of the right size) and got to ride it for the first time in a couple weeks on Tuesday. It was a lovely day for it, too.

  • gentle cleanser
  • chemical exfoliant (1 min)

What games?
Metro 2033, I did Last Light first before I realized there was another. Now I'm on Exodus. Wanted to see some ray tracing since I got the 3080.

Also bought AC Valhalla but that doesn't have ray tracing.

which one?

I got the San Francisco one when it was free. Felt too weird being a hacker shooting people up though. Wish they spent some time trying to figure out gameplay that made sense instead of just like the usual GTA shit. Really broke the immersion.

Liked running around in my city though.

I did get the first one for free. Though I beat the first 2. I got the newest one, though. I really like it, too. I've spent way to much time recruiting, though. I had to force myself to stop recruiting to do some of the main story.

What's something good that's happened this week for you?

And what's something you're looking forward to?

  1. My sister sent me photos of my Niece and Nephews while they went out on a walk. Their school was closed due to COVID cleaning and lucky enough her BF had the day off work so it was a nice family outing. I love seeing photos of the kids and love walks so it's always nice seeing this. Even more so when at the moment we are in another lockdown so I can't go to her house and see them.
  2. I guess when I'm next able to see my niece and nephews. Outside of seeing my Nephew on the park near me sometimes I don't get chance to see them these days.

yeah i had a nephew born during the middle of all this so haven't seen him. It's a rough time for many things and having a newborn is one of those things. My parents (the grandparents) have it even worse.

Pretty much. I was working from home and have been itching to get out of the house and getting more exercise.

Not a big fan of working as it is, I live an extremely minimalist and frugal lifestyle. I should be able to go without work through the winter and hopefully through the lockdown. I usually find a lot of opportunities to get laid (as in fucked by other human beings) after getting laid off from a job I worked 60 hours a week for several months on end.

I also get the luxury of casually looking for work and see what's going to happen so I can adjust accordingly. Lots of skills, connections, and job experience. Can pick up new skills in the meantime to stack on my experience.
