In Which We talk of Books and the rush to the grocery market

Hello, my good friend, and reader of this present post!! Happy Thursday! How are you today? How have you been? As for me, I am okay, though also feeling odd. Finished for the second time the audiobook of Human Action, the economic treatise by Ludwig von Mises. I feel accomplished and even if it was quite a big work by Mises, having 60 something hours, and around 1000 pages, as I once again listened at my own pace, and as I am very fond of his prose and am taken entirely by most of his ideas, only not quite subscribing to some fringe details here and there, it was nothing but a pleasure! A great and pleasant intellectual milestone on the journey of intellect. One that I went through before, but gladly doing it again. I only wish more people could take time to get themselves acquainted to this giant economist, the greatest knight of classical liberalism and common sense. If this is not the truth in its entirety, it is definitely close to it, or rather pointing towards it. Of course, one ...

In Which we Wrap up another February! Month of Pharaoh

Happy Tuesday, dear friend! Good morning! How are you today? How are things going? I wish you the best! How was your February? My own month was okay, overall. It was specially marked by the release of the remaster of Pharaoh, a game that throughout the last days of the month I went ahead and ALMOST finished once again! The only thing that stopped me from wrapping it up was the bug of the last mission, where I could import Barley, but could not produce my own beer for the citizens of the city, hence couldn't going forward in the mission. I had to halt my progress and I'm waiting for a patch to fix the lock of the brewery in said level. Frustrating... I did not draw much, that is true, I hope this may return in March somehow. I made a purchase on Amazon yesterday, I finally went ahead and got a case for my laptop, got a new sketchbook, and also a new mousepad, because my current one is kinda start to look gross, alas. I am almost finishing paying off my second monitor, that I got almost a year ago. Do I regret getting such hardware? Absolutely not. It's so good to have a second screen for Discord and other programs while you work on the main one! It was a gamble that fortunately I was quite right about. I started the journey, between January and February, of reading the extense three volume biography of Lady Thatcher, a wonderful task, that I'll be continuing throughout March. Read volume one the first weeks of February (or was it January? Now I cannot recall too well) and I am on the process of reading volume two. February shall be wrapped up on a positive tone also, as I'll be meeting my friend in the afternoon. Truth be told, I'm considering moving our nice rendezvous to tomorrow, March the first, if she can, of course. Because of my said Amazon purchase, I am short on credit, and tomorrow I'll receive some money from mom, and dad. I'll pay some bills and find myself more free to conduct my own affairs. It sounds like a plan... We shall see how it should go.


To wrap up today's post, we shall have the first picture I posted in 2019, on Instagram... It's a nice looking lamp! I like it a lot. And the picture looks quite good, don't you think? A nice way to wrap today's post, the no. #622 of the Divagation Store! I hope to return on the next days to write a bit about March and its beginning. Hopefully on the remainding of this week, so I see you again real real real soon, as I like to say!
