Quote of the moment Vol.2

In Which It is the Height of the Season, at last!

Hello, sir! Hello, madame! Good morning, my friend, reader of the present post! Happy December, and it is a happy moment, as I can now say in full force the beautiful Merry Christmas sentence! How are you, today? How is the weather? I am okay, yesterday was pretty bad, though. Ah... just tech issues, you know? I felt I lost most of my day wrestling against Sims 3, and I lost this round. I uninstalled and reinstalled the game multiple times and the results were worse and worse, until I lost all my patience. The future for this game in my life is uncertain, though I never fully discard something with a declaration. It has been a particularly rough season for this now zombie franchise. The old friendly ghost of the seas disappeared, and with him, the whole of supply of Sims 4, the door for this one game now for me is positively shut, not that I wanted it open anyway, that game is mediocre and aggravating. Sims 3 is so much better, and yet, I am taking, unoficially, a break from it. A brea...

In Which we have a Chaotic Thanksgiving post!!

This post was written yesterday, on thanksgiving! I started typing it right after midnight, but I could not finish it, and trying to go back to it, in the evening, bore no fruit. Hence, I am posting it today. 

I did have much much anxiety yesterday, that I could not recover from until this early morning, that was a major factor that destabilized me. In any case, I won't add anything to what I wrote yesterday. The post will remain finishing a bit abruptly. We will hopefully return to a more regular post soon! I may write to wrap up November and begin December...

Good morning, my good friend, reader of this post! Happy Thursday and happy Thanksgiving! Today, when our good american friends are having a day of bounty and rest, I would like of course to express my gratitude over the friends I have, how happy I am to have someone to chat with! It is a huge joy! And, how are you? How have you been? What are you grateful for? I do hold conviction there is always something to be thankful of... in any case, I am okay, Id say... neither too melancholic nor too gleeful. I did have a terrible moment just now, but it is okay, I eventually will surpass such extremely destabilizing situation. The weather has been heating up, at days reaching 32 celsius by lunch. Quite a sauna, I am not fond of this weather, I miss Winter. My sole consolation is the ongoing christmas 2024 season.

On the realm of games, today I would love to play some Sims 3, only haven't done so already because I also wanted to play Victoria 3 and Civ 5. Maybe, next time I return to the computer, I will do it. The hardest part of any game, I'd say, is really going further the play button and the menu. Specially with a sandbox one, where I am usually very much out lf ideas in what to do. At least the performance of the game is recovered, it took a nose dive when I decided to try some mods for the game. It was not a good trade off, hence I removed them. 

The past few months I reunited so many books on my files, I don't even want to get new ones anymore, I already have plenty to read. It has been a season with very slow reading progress, too, unfortunately. The book may have finally captured me, after a while of struggling with the material, but I am still with my distracted soul, and lacking the desire to push forward when I don't want to do it. 

So, today, in this tepid moment, where I did suffer but not that much, suffered due to being reminded of a past trauma, I really wanted to get over the situation even if briefly, to mark the occasion of thanksgiving, and to also come around and wish you a good day! I am unsure how to finish it, the post, given I started writing in one moment but left it to finish on another, quite distant from that one.
