November 18, 2017

 Last night I got eight hours of sleep and then stayed in bed a little longer because my room was cold and it was warm under the covers.

I got out of bed around 8:45AM and then watched YouTube videos, clicked around the internet, and played a little bit of Starbound. I have wanted to play that game for years and just recently picked it up in a Humble Bundle. I feel like the controls are overly complicated when it comes to the hotbar, but other than that I am liking it.

This afternoon I went to my Mom's to do laundry. While that happened, I watched Tommy Boy and a little bit of Happy Gilmore. I haven't seen either in years and Tommy Boy reminded me of how funny Chris Farley was. It's such a shame he passed away so young.

I did a little research on washers and dryers because at some point I need to get my own. Turns out they're still expensive. Affordable, but still expensive. I also made a grocery list. I went through the local grocery store's website, adding stuff to my cart, and when I got to the end they said pickup wasn't available at that store (because I thought I would try the curbside pickup thing). It is available at the store across town but it wasn't available today. One of the other grocery stores in town also has it but I wasn't going to go through the process again just to find out it wasn't going to work. So instead, I went with the old fashion paper and pen list.

And on my way home, I went to the grocery store. It was six o'clock, which is earlier than I would normally go, but they actually had produce, so that was nice. Among other things, I got Cheerios (Honey Nut and original) because I was have a craving, pad thai noodles to change up my stir fry recipe, and the individual ingredients for trail mix. I'm pretty excited about the trail mix. Hopefully it turns out alright.

Following the grocery store, I stopped and got gas, and then headed home. While I ate dinner I started watching the second season of The Good Place. I wasn't sure how I felt about the beginning of the second season but I'm back on board now. I enjoy the show.

Later on I played more CoD: WW2 multiplayer. I really like the addition of the War game mode. It's a nice change of pace from the other games. This CoD also doesn't have Demolition, which I really liked, but War has some of those elements. Plus, it doesn't count deaths, so there is more incentive to actually play the objective for people who are usually more concerned with their K/D than the objective. I played several different game modes tonight, had one match where I didn't have the most points but did have the most kills (which is a first), and had a match where I had the final play of the game. There is probably some algorithm for figuring that out (I think it used to just be the final kill cam) but more often than not it is a sniper play. But the stars aligned and somehow I got it, even if it wasn't the best thing I've ever done.


Tomorrow, I'm going to sleep in, maybe make trail mix, and probably make stir fry for dinner. I've also been playing with the idea of finally moving some of the bookcases from my aunt into my house. They've been in my garage for months now. It would be a better two-person job, however, so we'll see how ambitious I'm feeling. My left knee has been bothering me today and who knows how my wrists
