Horror, Funny and Not
I don’t have anything interesting to talk about today. I went and colored my hair. There was a lot of grey. Then I stopped at Subway, grabbed two sandwiches and took them home. I R Domestic Goddess. Gordon and I are watching Mindhunter on Netflix. The show is based on the work of the first

Weird Dreams and Weird Fridays
I had weird dreams last night. Not exactly nightmares but weird, confusing dreams, and I had really hard time waking up. When I finally managed to claw my eyes open well past my usual 7:00 am, I lay in bed for a little bit, trying to get my bearings on reality. Part of the dream

Comfort gaming
So, I’ve been playing Empyrion, which I enjoyed very much, but I am kind of getting fed up with it. I really want a feel good game, something pretty, possibly even cute. Something like Stardew Valley or Recettear. Failing that, I’d love something absorbing. Middle Earth: Shadow of War is coming out, and I’m excited
