In Which the Divagation Store reaches the 900 posts Milestone! Reflection on Why...

Good morning, my friend, dear reader of this present post! How are you today, this new week? It should be the last one for February, quite soothing that it will end on a Sunday as well, given it started on a Sunday, too! As for me, I did sleep quite a bit yesterday, but I cannot complain of not being a productive day, given I finished reading the biography of Madame de Pompadour, written by Nancy Mitford. Quite a good one, and in fact, I would say is a great one! What a remarkable lady she was, the great patronesse of Rococo, though she sensed a move in France towards a more neoclassical direction, and overall set the sails on the direction of the style of the next era, the one called Louis XVI style, though in truth it was the queen Marie Antoinette who truly set the tone. I like this topic, and I love her majesty. Though the late rococo she preferred was hinted with an antique tint, it was not the more sober neoclassical of the 1790's and the Napoleonic era.

In Which Easter Season is upon us!

Hello everyone! How are you today? How are things going? As usual, I wish you the best, and hope your week has been nice till this point, and may it keep it that way! How is the weather where you are? Here, some days are hot as hell, but I can start to notice the cold winds of Winter slowly spreading around, with rain and fog! It is lovely! My favorite season indeed! Also, we are upon one of my favorite times of the year, Easter Season! Time for chocolate, sweets, bunnies, renovation and hope! April is a very nice month, but this month of March is also coming with its nice things, such as the last DLC of New Frontier Pass of Civilization VI coming out, and the approach of the release of the Tourist season of Anno 1800, and also the approach of the release of a game I've been waiting for: Humankind! Sounds like a time packed with good news. I'm also on the move, and I can't wait to be on my new bedroom! It will be ideal, or at least I hope so!

What is your favorite thing about Easter? As for me, it's definitely the easter eggs! There are all kinds of them! Easter bunnies are super cool as well! I hope this easter season may be better than that of last year! But last year wasn't bad, I got an easter egg and stuff. My grandmother loves decorating the house for Easter, and I love being surrounded by all the stuffed bunnies! Such a nice touch! I may sneak one for my bedroom, who knows... I'm being devious, look at that. Wow, I'm happy to be writing a post today, specially after that week in which I didn't write anything! Will I have some time off in Easter season? I sure hope so! And speaking of Anno, I started a new Anno game recently, with Three AIs, those are Willie the wannabe magician, Carl the wannabe baron, and Bente the wannabe Disney Princess. Lots of wannabes, but I like having more action on the game, and having someone to pace myself at. Anyway, I got distracted with discord way too often, does that happen with you guys as well? I wonder... Well, this will be a shorter post, but a jolly one, which is nice! See you again real soon! Much happiness may come your way!
