In Which I want to loudly celebrate Christmas Season 2026!

Good evening, my friend, dear reader of this present post. How are you today? I pray that your week has been a good week! And how is the weather? I am, as has been my frequent mood, over the past few days, perhaps a week or so, tired and drained. Perhaps summer is to blame. When the weather is hot and humid, it causes me to become lethargic. So, maybe it is the heat of the dawning of Summer, but this has not been the most productive november, so far, concerning my works on drawing and writing, I can only hope to do something interesting at other moment soon. I am in fact desperate to take something out of my head, yet it has been difficult. The fact I had a release of two very very anticipated dlcs for the games I play do not help in the slightest. There is only so much time I can remain seated without feeling incredibly sore and even hurt. My time at the desk is very precious, and yet I never know exactly how I will end up spending it. Since it is all hobbies, I default to the compute...

In Which We Close October and Happy Halloween

Hello, my friend, reader of this post! Happy Monday, the sun is yet to rise, and here I am, writing a post, likely the last one of this October. How are you today? How was the weekend? As for me, I am okay, overall, though a bit sad over the loss of Matthew Perry, the man who for many years interpreted Chandler Bing in the series Friends, which was one that I was fond of. It was a show I was watching on the days I was starting the blog. The titles of my entries, each one with its characteristic beginning “In Which” sorta refers to the show… it is not the only show referenced, as I also had Private Practice in mind, which was one I finished watching in the beginning of 2018. It comes with a bit of an unfair nostalgia, those days… I have no business missing that time in my life, and yet… sometimes I do. I think Matthew Perry was likely the one whom came to mind when thinking about the sitcom. I am sad he is no longer on this plane of existence. I don’t know how heaven is like, but maybe he will see my grandpa, there? My grandpa, my friend Fitz… death is weird.



I am aware this is a bit of a sad way to end October, but apart from what we cannot change, the end-month is going alright, apart from some mental woes. I hope I can finish some drawings before the end of the month, we have one day and 23 hours left in it, maybe it is enough. Overall, I have two drafts to finish, and one I’d like to get starter on, I hope I can. On other notes, I was playing some Europa Universalis just now, and I survived the disaster of the ming dynasty very well, which brings me joy. I wonder if I’ll keep in it, or if I’ll move for now to another game… I have no idea which one, though… I never really got into Cities Skylines. It is a soulless game that tries to replace SimCity 2013, and in my opinion fails at it. Not that SimCity 2013 is a good game, but even that is better than CS. I don’t like sandbox experiences, not on city builders, not on Sims games… what is the deal of games today removing many aspects of older ones that made them more enjoyable? It is frustrating. Like I said, I wonder what I will do when I return to my work station. Nothing really catches my attention, much… not my most inspired day, I think this is because I feel a bit sick, sore throat and so on.

Is this a good way of finishing today’s post? Or yesterday’s, as I am writing this last note on Tuesday? I am still sick, with a sore throat, not ideal, but I did not expect it to vanish overnight. As I am waking up, and having decided I don’t desire to play Cities, I wonder what to do next, I have two games in mind and yet cannot decide what path to take, either Anno 1800 or Europa Universalis, and maybe I will further complicate my situation by desiring to try Civ 6 as well… In Anno, I thought about starting over… but the thought of abandoning all my work… that sucks. In Europa, I’d try England… I really wanted to play Anno once more. It is what I desire at the precise moment, but I am not settled. I also have some drawings to finish… let’s see how it goes.

Happy Halloween, also! Wish you as many candies and as little spookiness as possible. With that, I hope to return at some point in the first days of November to write some more! See you again real soon!
