In Which December flies in the sky with Santa Claus and the Reindeers!

Hello, my friend, reader of this present post, maybe past ones as well, perhaps future ones too. How are you, this new week? Another one for the height of the most beautiful season! How is the christmas going? For me, it is quite tranquil, I don't want to lament much. I do have some bad moments, for example, as I mentioned on the other post, when Sims 3 broke on me, and took me a week to figure out what was causing such issues. I have great news, concerning that! I figured it out: it was OneDrive! I understand better why so many have Windows 11 fatigue, though I resist to share of the sentiment. It did bother me that I was facing the OneDrive overreach issues, but once they were solved, I could resume my Sims 3 shenanigans. Of course, as I mentioned before, I was even committed to take a break from the game. Though such commitment is not necessary, nor justifiable anymore, neither is respectful towards all my hard work on figuring out the issues, an era ended with Sims 3, but anoth...

In Which we say Farewell to November, Month of bad incidents

Good morning to you, dear reader of this post, my friend, and happy Tuesday! How are you today? How are things going? We have reached the last day of the month of November, a month that was not ideal for me. Losing my tooth was very brutal, the fall was painful, lost a lot of blood that day, and am still to do the procedure to recover my teeth arcade. It should be done tomorrow, at least part of it, and this if the dentist don’t postpone it, I really hope he does not. We should wait for the best outcome. The accident obfuscated many events of November, unfortunately. Apart from that, I am happy to be deeper into the Christmas season! Decorations took a while to arrive, but they start to come and being assembled. I already have some pictures. Other thing I should mention is the more stable financial situation I found myself into, which is a good surprise when I think of the money I’ve spent the beginning of the month. Glad it was worth it! I should’ve done a small list of things I wanted to highlight in this November wrap up post, I indeed haven’t wrote as much as in other seasons, which is a shame. Today was also the day of the Spotify Wrapped, and this 2022 I probably listened to more Spotify than 2021, and I also listened to a lot more classical music, which I like to have returned to such spectrum more strongly! I was specially amused by Debussy and his piece Pelleas et Melisande, Gabriel Faure also kept his relevance for me, was overall a year of Art Nouveau and Symbolism, and not only in the music spectrum. November will be wrapping up with me expecting for the last DLC of Anno’s fourth season. Some fans are wandering if we’ll see a 5th one, which I thought to be more likely than I think of, now. The game, in fact, is getting too packed, heavy. Some dream of an eastern season being added, but I say, if such thing is to happen, better it be a spin-off than a season of Anno 1800. I was reluctant on mentioning events for last month, as I wanted to have a proper post to talk about December, but well, I can’t help not to mention the last DLC of season 4, because it is being much expected by me!



And for today's post, one of the pictures I took of the first drove of Christmas decorations of 2022! The big tree is still missing for now, but it should come soon into being. The season is not truly innaugurated without that tree and the santas underneath it!
I miss home, the chair there is way better than the miserable one I have it here... at some point, I'll need to get other one, though the other one is not much better... I do feel bad for taking a chair from the kitchen, though... but at some point real soon despair will speak louder. I'd return home today, but I need to be here at my grandma's in order to go to the dentist tomorrow! One step at a time.
I'm very happy I managed to write a post for the last day of November, I believe that is a small, but still, an achievement! And about the chair, I got one of those in the kitchen because I couldn't bear the other one I was using... I mean, it isn't much better, but at least it is more spacious. Anyway, I believe I should wrap things up here, and keep enjoying the last day of November, as much as I can! May play some more Vic3, may play some The Sims, perhaps... you all know the ambiguous relationship I have with the glorified dollhouse, but anyway... I hope you may enjoy your last day of November as well, or any day, for that matter, and I wish you the best! I shall return with more thoughts and ideas and just words real real real real soon!
