oh, right
Oct 31st, 2013 at 10:16 PM ·I'm not doing too hot with this whole "post an entry every calendar month" thing. The point of that goal was not specifically to register unqualified success but to getting me writing more than in 2012 (or 2011, for that matter). So even if I'm not hitting my goal, I am improving, and that's the main thing.
I am determined to consider this a success. Does it show?
My life seems sort of in-between right now. We moved, but half my stuff is boxed in my mother's basement, because there just isn't room; we aren't focused on making room for it, because we might be moving again soon. Or we might not.
I demand a world that I can view in black and white, as I see fit! Ha, no. I do crave some certainties in life, though, and I'm coming up a bit short there.
Also I miss the crap out of my video games, you have no idea. On Sunday, we visited my mother and I blissfully hugged my Super Nintendo. As you do, right? Then I played it and hugged it again.
Really miss my video games. I tried hooking them up to my husband's HDTV, but apparently HDTVs have a degree of lag when playing old video games on them, and this particular set is pretty bad. There isn't room at our home to set up another TV, so my games are all at my mother's (except some handheld stuff). I finally got my PC gaming controller set up nicely, though, and I've been enjoying retro-inspired games on Steam. Breath of Death VII has been cracking me up, and the gameplay is right up my alley too!
Yay stuff!

Aug 30th, 2013 at 9:04 PM ·It has been awhile. Oops. Since I last wrote, I have experienced all the things! I am married! We moved!
I don't have a single bookshelf in the new place yet, because there's no place to put one, because BOXES. I had no idea I could hate the sight of brown cardboard, but here we are. BOXES. Ick.
We did get an entertainment center shelving unit... thing, which gathered our myriad connecting-to-TV electronics up off the floor and into a compact little station that still has plenty of airflow to let hardworking electronics stay cool. It's beautiful, if you like the sight of efficiently-used tight spaces. (Turns out that I do. It appears to be a small but serious Thing with me.)
Organization is pretty.
