In Which there is a shy but perceptive trend upwards: Quiet good moments ahead? One can hope...

Good morning, my friend, reader of this present post!! Wish you, of course, a wonderful Sunday, Sunday of Christmas season 2025, the last Sunday for this chaotic year. I should mention that it is not a bad one, on the whole, but definitely a very mind intensive one, as such, exhausting. I could compare it to a very intensive town holiday celebration, where on the whole, there were incidents, but not enough to spoil the bigger picture.  Today, much to my glee, has been a productive day, after many other days where I felt terrible, slept through most of it, and when awaken, second guessed my every move, mind working much more than it should, I suppose that is the OCD. The reason why I am on a better state, I trust, is due to having all my meds again. And also, having access to the appropriate sweetener again. Not only coffee tastes better with sucralose rather than sugar, it is also the case that sugar is not exactly good to have as casually. I do love it and will never disavow it, b...

In Which the surgery is tomorrow, and my Sims 3 era(?)

Good early morning, my friend! How are you, this Wednesday? My coffee saga of unslept evenings continue... hence my desire to write on the blog so late/early... it is also the eve of my surgery. Am I nervous or concerned? Not really any of those. I just desire to get this over with. I want to have a bit more control over my appetite, hence the surgery. Recover a bit of mobility and feel less heavy. I will go to the doctor today, later, and then tomorrow I will undergo the procedure. It is what it is... it sucks I can't have coffee right now. I miss it a lot. But well, at least sometime soon I will be able to have it again.


Before we continue, what a joy! My therapist decided to exhibit the drawing I gave her on her new office! Isn't that great?? Such an honor, I am so happy she liked my doodle!

Apart from the surgery, I wonder if I am on another sims era, this time Sims 3 era... and I wonder if that is a good thing. I ought to play other games as well... Victoria 3's new DLC got postponed and will only be released only in a month or so, I trust I mentioned it before. Europa's new content is closer, it will be released this May the 8th. Nice. I know Europa can be an extremely frustrating game, but it can be rewarding going through the stories and so on... I look forward to returning to it. Back to the sims, It is good to play the game and download assets to it, actually quite addicting, so why this aprehension? I think Sims 4 devalued the whole franchise, for starters. Also I hate the idea of losing time and being blind to the game's flaws, I am prone to that because I am really into the game at the moment. Anyway... apart from games... I would love to draw something at some point, but I think it will only come after the surgery time.

Concerning dear friends, it was Johannes's Birthday this Monday! I wished him the best, as I always do, and all the good things... Florius's Birthday was today I think, also wished him a happy Birthday! I hope I can chat with either of them at some point someday... on other good news, I could have a small talk with dear friend Evan the other day! How cool is that? I did have a moment of stress with Charles, though, God knows it was not trivial... I am evaluating our friendship... maybe I should not have mentioned the surgery to him once again, as he is not favorable of it...

April is going by quite fast, I think! It was a month of preparation for the surgery, or at least 3/4 of it were... like I said, I have been playing a lot of Sims 3, which is a game I have become fond of over the past months... my save in Hidden Springs is quite alright, though I miss Monte Vista, that beautiful italian world, with cypress trees and curvy hills... No wonder once The Sims was so popular, Sims 2 and 3 being such strong titles, with no one being able to tell precisely which one is the best of those two... I think I still prefer the Third entry, because it is hard to beat the Open World feature, as well as the customization in the game... Sims 2 does have better social functions and mechanics, true, but the world of Sims 3 is huge and vast and ever inviting all sorts of adventures!

So, yes, I will have the surgery tomorrow! I wanted to write a post before it, just to catch up with you all! I talked also about Sims 3 and mentioned the birthday of some dear friends! I hope I can wrap up officially the book I am reading soon, even if it ends on a frustrating cliffhanger... and with wrapping up this one, start to read the next! The month is not over yet, though the Surgery will be a milestone. I think, for today, I covered everything I wanted to cover. I will see you again after the surgery, hopefully around the weekend or on Monday. Until then, if you can send me a prayer... see you again real soon, wish you the best

  2. I wish you a successful surgery and a quick recovery, and also I will be sending you my prayers so that all goes well. You'll be alright. By the way The Sims is a really cool game, I played the first one and its expansion packs when I was younger.
