 Today I slept in later than I thought I would but I'm okay with that. Then I took a nap later in the afternoon. Apparently I needed some extra sleep.

I read until it was time for lunch, then ate lunch and read some more. My day was basically filled with sleep, reading, YouTube, video games, laundry, and movies. Not a bad way to spend a Saturday. But also not a lot to write about. Tonight I got around to playing more Battlefield 1. I completed the third storyline, leaving three to go. This one involved flying, which was cool, but also annoying because the flight controls were limited. It's like when there's an easy mode that kind of assists you and doesn't let you go too crazy, and then a more realistic mode that lets you do whatever you want, like barrel rolls. I've heard it's less restrictive in multiplayer but in the campaign you can't do a barrel roll and it takes a hell of a lot of mouse movement just to turn the plane around. I do not have the real estate required for that much movement. So that was frustrating but I still enjoyed the storyline. The game still looks incredible, as well, easily making trench warfare look very real and terrifying. I am thankful this is not a VR game.

I just finished watching Lights Out, which was a pretty scary movie. The overall concept was interesting but I particularly liked how the scary lady worked. It was kind of like the weeping angels in Doctor Who.

Right now I am watching the Warcraft movie. I don't know how well it did in theaters but so far I am liking it. The special effects are pretty cool and I like the little bits of humor sprinkled throughout. I'd watch a sequel if they make one, but hopefully it won't be a direct-to-DVD kind, because then I probably would not watch it.

Tomorrow I suspect there will be much of the same and I am totally okay with that.
