I am shocked. One of the buttons on my theater work shirt popped off in the washing machine. Such a quality shirt and a button just pops off. So unexpected. Now the trick will be remembering to sew it back on before I have to wear it again. I'm confident that I will not.

Today I did really do a thing. Just relaxed, watched some YouTube videos and played Battlefield 4. I am still awful at the game but it is fun to play. Every now and then I get on a decent team and go against guys worse than me, which makes me feel momentarily good. But most of my time is spent dying a bunch with the occasional kill. Right now I am level eight and my goal is to reach level ten so I can try out commander mode.

As for headphones, I tried out all three today, back-to-back, and at the moment the Astro's are in the lead. I'd say soundwise they are all pretty much the same so that isn't a thing. I really like the vibration of the Rosewill pair but they are really hot, not that comfortable, and the material on the earcups feels cheap. The SteelSeries come close in terms of comfort but I can still feel my left ear touching the inside of the ear cup and that annoys me. They also have the fake leather earcups and I prefer cloth. The Astro's aren't perfect but they are the most comfortable, they have cloth earcups, and the build quality seems better than the other two. They are weighted weird and it takes awhile to get them situated right so they don't fall off my head if I tilt my head down. I still have awhile to make my final decision and send the losers back so the testing will continue.

And that is really all I have to write about. It was a pretty boring day in terms of content. Not that other days are more thrilling. For the next three weeks we will be MAP testing at school. Fun. Watching kids test is boring as hell. And I'm still working on storybooks so I don't really need all the data entry of test scores to fill my downtime. I just want to finish the storybooks.
