The time has come…
The Christmas tree is up.
And one cat, Lele loves it…and by that I mean he’s already sat under it and given his approval.
Midna refuses to go downstairs…too much excitement.
Anybut, here’s a pic:
Yay. Holidays. The next step is cookies…but those’ll have to wait until later.
Yesterday I had a delicious dinner with friends.
I got to meet an adorable French Bulldog names Stitch who is (in my eyes) Instagram famous…but mostly the cutest little puppy.
You can see pictures of this adorable puppy at @sincerelystitch.
The food was of course absolutely delicious and I couldn’t move after. Which was good cause we played JackBox games after which require very little movement.
It was a special Friendsgiving since one of my friends had just flown back from Saudi Arabia the DAY BEFORE! He’d been working on a musical there for an Arts festival.
He was very jet lagged but did his best to stay awake through dinner but crashed early. We all definitely understood.
Anybut, it was a fantastic Friendsgiving and now today is the real deal with my family.
Avocado is gross.
Rain rain go away…
It’s not that I don’t like rainy days….it’s just I hate DRIVING in it. And not because I personally hate driving in the rain…it’s everyone else. Everyone goes insane when it rains in Southern California.
At least the internet is working again…
That was an…ordeal…
First off, they told us they were turning the power off at 8:30am. It turned off at 9:45am. Okay. That’s no big deal.
And they were done by 2:30pm instead of the 5pm they told us. Also, okay. No big deal.
What was an ordeal was the cable and internet. My theory is the cable company forgot to turn them back on until about 4pm. Why was this an ordeal?
Well, my father isn’t very calm or impatient when things don’t work when they’re supposed to…wonder where I got THAT from?! Anyways, had to listen to him do that thing men do where they breathe loudly and huff and puff trying to pretend like they know what they’re doing instead of believing not only those around them, but one of those websites (looking at from our phones) that say there’s a blackout in the area.
Bottom line. The actual power outage situation was simple and easy. It was dealing with my parents……..who weren’t even home for all of it.
ANYBUT, I got a lot of reading done. Got halfway through Stephen King’s End of Watch which I’ve been meaning to read for…..four years?
There they are…
Keeping me from the internet….how dare they. My phone can only do SO MUCH!!
For all the Holiday stuff that’s already out….
The only thing I truly want is the peppermint Starbucks frappuccino….but it’s TOO EARLY FOR THAT! There’s egg nog everywhere, there’s Christmas flavors ice cream, but NO!!
No peppermint frappuccino…..>sigh<
This has been…a SAD…random food update.
So after posting about how I can never finish the video game Subnautica…..
I DID IT! I FINISHED IT!!
I sucked it up and went deeper. I ventured to the depths of depths and found the cure to the alien disease and made it off the planet.
I guess I just needed to post about how scared of the deep sea in a video game to overcome that fear and finish the game.
Thank all of you. You were apart of this milestone.
………………I’m gonna go start another game so I can keep collecting copper and acid mushrooms. Again…..not what you think.
I started playing a game I haven’t played in a while…
It’s called Subnautica. You are a passenger on a space transporter ship, but it gets shot down and crashes on a planet that is 98% ocean. You have to collect resources and survive, but also find a way to get off the planet without being shot out of the sky…oh, and there’s a virus that’s killing you.
I get so sucked into these kinds of games because I sort of like busy work. Mindless farming is relaxing for me. It also passes time like NObody’s business.
Each completion of one small task leads to another small task that eventually completes a larger task.
I’ve also started this game three times because I really enjoy the beginning before you “go deeper”.
Someday I’ll actually finish the game…but until then I’ll be right back. I gotta go collect some copper and acid mushrooms…not what you’re thinking.
Discussing things that happened…
Time to talk about 5 things that’ve happened and state my random opinion about them:
And that was 5 random news stories.
Anybut, thank you for joining me.
These were MY opinions on each. Your opinions may be different and that’s fine. Now on to more random things!!
