In Which the Blog reach 950 posts! A lovely Holiday Season approaches!

Good morning, my dear friend, and I wish you a happy Wednesday! How are you, this fine hour? As for me, I am okay, just waking up, really. The weather here is one of quiet transition, to spring. I can still use thicker blankets, but the days are longer, and the sun is more bright. Not exactly a good thing, I don't like summer, that is approaching. The only saving grace is to have Christmas season also upon us, the season of 2026! And all the memories of happy summer vacations, with the christmas trees and the great deal of lovely santas around it. Grandma used to go all in for the decor. How I miss it... I pray I can emulate it, when I can. Today, grandma is 82 years old, she is aging, as it rarely can be helped. She is tired, and she lives in an apartment nowadays, as such, she does not do the Christmas stuff as vigorously as some years before, alas.  There is no such thing as forsaking the long holiday tradition just because "times changed", whatever that means.

In which I show the fanart Joey made of me!

Hello everyone! Good morning and happy Sunday! How are you today and how are things going? As usual, I wish you the best and hope your days have been nice ones! As for me, things are okay, I finished my first game as Ethiopia on Civilization VI, and it went phenomenal! I finished even before the Atomic Era, on a massive cultural victory! I'm really glad that this happened! Today I'm thinking of playing even more Civ, and maybe some Anno as well, you guys know me, I love some Anno too! I probably mentioned before I'm moving places as well! Yes! We found a proper apartment and we are heading there asap! In fact, I guess I'll be celebrating my birthday in the new place after all, which is awesome! How is the weather where you are? I hope everything is fine with you concerning the weather too! Here it has been the way I like it, really, "cold", chilly, cloudy and rainy! Continuing on the track of fanarts, I wanted to share with you guys a very special one, that Joey made of me back in April! Which was quite the wonderful gesture!


Joey did a special stream once, in which he made some drawings, he asked the audience what he should draw, I gave him the idea of drawing me, Daniel Trianon, and he did just that, and the result blew my mind, it's such an unique style, one that I'm quite fond of already! That stream was so awesome, Joey made other cool drawings as well and I loved them! I have written about friendships here that does not exist anymore, I hope my friendship with Joey may last! I've been ups and downs with Noodles, for example. Others that I mentioned proved to be not quite my friends. As an era of your life goes, other comes, and not everyone in your life stay for it, but you really tell on retrospective, you can't predict how things will turn out to be unfortunately, but yea, this is it for today's post, Joey is amazing! And you are amazing as well, just for being here! Thank you so much for reading! See you all next time!
I really enjoy having a blog, no matter how neglected he is sometimes by me, because I forget to update it... ANYWAYS, see you all next time!
