In Which AI skyrockets and Voyager is going too fast

Good morning, dear friend and reader of the current post! I am, of course, and as always, so happy and humbled to see you, and I hope to make it clear I never take it for granted. How are you, this last day of March? As for me, I am okay, I'd say. Today was alright overall, not anything on any side in particular, either good or bad. I made my college test for the March discipline, and my grade was nothing to write about, but also enough to pass me through! So it is what it is. I made myself some sweet potatoes for lunch, it was good and filling. But the trend concerning food is concerning. I have been struggling with my appetite again. At times I feel very hungry and almost like before the surgery, that is extremely concerning. I did manage to locate the approximate reason for this, and it is the protein intake deficit. I am in need of supplementation, but that is so expensive and in my household at the moment every penny counts, specially since we are barely reaching the end of th...

In Which we say Hello to October of 2023! The Month of the changing of seasons

Good morning, my friend, reader of this post! Happy Sunday, and happy October! How are you today? How have you been? As for me, I am okay. I had a good conversation with a dear friend, mom hugged me and sounded calm for the first time in one or two weeks... No one can say this means things will go alright from now on and rainbows will follow my every move, but a good morning is a good morning, and I appreciate that. Tomorrow I shall receive some money, weekly money from my dad and grandma. Monthly money from mom, maybe? But that is not a given. It would help a lot, though. As always, money will help me pay stuff I ought to pay. And as I am, again, doing an effort to control expenses, maybe this time I will return to a more healthy balance! Tomorrow I will have therapy as well, I hope it goes okay. Odds are that it will. For Sunday, I should also mention, I came back to grandma's house for breakfast, lunch, and I think I'll spend the evening here, too, because we are a bit out of groceries at home, alas. It is nothing to worry about much, mom shall work on the groceries at some point, but I can't live without my morning coffee, so yes. I am happy to say, also, that the update on grandma's computer went alright. It has the most recent Win10, now. I was considering updating it to Win11, like I have on my laptop, but I asked first her technician, that adviced me against it, worried that she may had trouble adapting. So, no Win11 for grandma, for the time being. And, speaking of computer shenanigans...

I decided to go something more Christmassy for October, at least for my laptop wallpaper... I know, we are barely beginning fall-Spring, but, Christmas is where my happy place is, next to the Petit Trianon.

I was going to play some Sims, but decided to write something first. I think I am going to start a new save on Sims 3, with the character I created before. I wonder what I'll do, now, if I'll change anything, any clothing, and so on. Even if Sims 3 is not safe from issues with shallow gameplay, it has a way biger timespawn than Sims 4, that is for sure. It is so much challenging, in all ways, to make it on Sims 3, money wise, skills wise, relationship wise. The game feels better, too. And, though its aesthetic choices on furniture and wallpapers are more limited than Sims 4, it graphically does not look that bad, or I have no issue with how the peeps look in the game, overall. 

About college, I have pretty bad news on one of my disciplines, of all the 10 questions, I got just one correct, dang, and my grade is the grand total of 0,4. Geez... At least I got approved on the other one. I was considering dropping this course, but in the conversation I mentioned with my friend, I decided not to do it, at the moment. If financial concerns were not a thing, I could look for another course to do on the side... one that I'd actually appreciate. But well... financial concerns are a thing. It is what it is.

I am glad that October seems to be starting in a positive note. I trust this is a nice point to wrap up today's post... I should return real soon with some more words, most likely around next week, I hope before the first weekend of October. Until then, let us pray to our heavenly father that this week goes without many strike of woe. I wish you the best, my friend.
