October 24, 2013

Today I did nothing and really have nothing to worry about. Due to teacher conferences I didn't have work and I did nothing productive with my time. I caught up on YouTube videos and DVRed stuff while playing Minecraft and looking things up on the internet. I'm thinking about upgrading parts of my computer and I'm seeing if I can get any advice on forums. One thing I learned is that my motherboard can handle up to 16GB of RAM. It even explicitly says this in the manual and on the website but for some reason I have always thought it could only handle 4GB, which is why I only have 4GB. So that might be my first upgrade.

In Minecraft I filled out my expanded farm and will need to add onto it in the future. My goal is to have eight squares for everything I am able to plant, which is a lot of different stuff. I also decorated my house a little bit, which lead to a really long search for cactus. I set off in one direction and kind of took an unintentional circuitous path and didn't find any cacti until I had almost made it back to my house. So I definitely set off in the wrong direction. But I ended up finding four or five new fruit-bearing trees and a few queen bees. I know there is a mod that involves a lot of bee stuff but I'm not sure how deep the mods I have go into it. I'll have to do some reading. And going back to RAM for a second. I allocated more RAM to Minecraft and it runs a lot better now. I was inspired to look into this when I finished expanding my garden and putting a whole bunch of torches up, which practically made everything grind to a halt. I am assuming there was just too much going on in one place. Or it might be completely unrelated. But now everything runs pretty much great.

I didn't have a visit with the new volunteer kid but we did text back and forth a bit. He apparently had a doctors appointment to see if he has a hernia. Ouch. Never had one and don't want one. I have enough on my plate with all the kidney stones. My friend had one on is stomach once and was able to push it back in. It was gross.


And again it is way too late to be up. I'm never going to get back to a regular sleep schedule.
