In Which songs from 2011 bring me some memories of days past... a post done out of nostalgia

Good morning my excellent friend, reader of this present post! How are you? How is the week going? It has begun, and I pray, in a good way. I am overall okay. Not much else to be said, really. Just awaken way too late in the night/early in the morning. I will likely be sleepy by 6 to 7AM, but I won't desire to sleep. It will be that annoying battle against the heavy eyes. At times I am with much anxiety to sleep. Maybe I should look for some other comfort beverage besides coffee. I did cut to 3 mugs a day, 4 if I am indulgent... I used to think it would just make me stay awake, but it just mitigates sleepy time, so the enchantment over caffeine has been dimmed...  This is just a series of impromptu thoughts I had when the social media algorithm recommended me a post with by now old songs, tunes that were mainstream a decade ago. Imagine, a whole decade! In fact, 16 years ago, give it or take... bitter, that it went away so completely. I was 14, then, I am 27 now. Almost 3 decades o...

In Which I have more Freedom of Movement concerning my Laptop!

Good morning, dear friend, reader of this post! How are you, today? How has the weather been? Here, I must indeed enjoy every last drop of winter, before the suffocating time of summer returns. It still has been pleasant, that is what matters! As for myself, I am okay, happy that I finally worked on a drawing yesterday, to the total of two drawings this week, more on that further on the post! I hope I can do some more in the next few days, as I have some ideas I would like to put into paper, though I should not force myself. I am also happy I have received my new External SSD drive! With such device, I will be able to install more games on my computer, as I got an extra 470gb into the machine. Every extra storage capacity matters! In other news, I am waiting for an external dvd driver, and I should be done with the birthday season, alas. It is going fast isn't it? Next moment we realize how things are moving, it will be Christmas already! Ah, the beautiful Christmas season, how I miss it, how I am eager to see it back! One step at a time, though, of course... 

Speaking of this superb season, yesterday I was at the online show of Dennis Van Aarsen, on Discord, and it was christmas themed, much to my delight! More than that, a christmas themed concert in my birthday week! Now that is awesome, to say the least, and I am very grateful to Dennis for doing it! Dennis is a great crooner/jazz singer, and his voice is one of the most beautiful I've seen, that is so efortless and smooth! What a gift to ally the raw talent with the desire to spread joy through the ability he posesses! I was not really planning on spend much time on such show, given I did not plan ahead to it, but at the end of the day, I threw that consideration to the wind and enjoyed the whole thing! Was a great time! Dennis brought joy to my birthday week, that has been quite alright already, and he honored the Lord in his special holiday, and though the month of December is still a while to arrive, Christmas is a state of mind, at the end of the day.


The fanart to Valerio! I am happy with how it turned out, and such success motivates me to work on another one.

Mentioning drawing once again, I am very happy to say I indeed worked on a drawing I was aiming at, which was another fanart to dear Valerio, a guy I follow on Instagram! He liked the piece so that makes me over the moon with joy! I hope today I can work on another piece, but as I said, I won't force it.

I am happy it is Saturday, even if the birthday week is passing by, coming to its closure. At least it was a happy one... the day started early for me, with my external ssd providing me with extra capacity for games and more freedom of movement! That is not all, of course, I may receive yet another package soon! It will be my dvd driver, that will expand my freedom of movement on yet another field, which I look forward to.

It is a post with good news, and with nice themes, so I am happy to see it through and be productive this Saturday morning. Of course, I always try not to go too hard on production in the early morning, given that can make the rest of the day sterile, but also, since the mood to write is not a constant one, I should take advantage when it comes... wrapping up this post here, I think this is a good size for the entry. Of course, worry not, I will be back soon, maybe next week at some point. I hope I have more stuff to tell you about! Until then, wish you the best once again, happy Weekend!!!!! Farewell!
