Hard to believe that it has been so long since I last posted, but honestly life is busy. The holiday season has already begun along with all the preparations thereof and I’ve been busy both planning for gift giving and whatnot and also with attempts at decluttering. The local Facebook buy/sell and buy nothing groups… Continue reading Time keeps just rushing by…
Extra-Life 2022
So it’s less than a week away now until I start streaming video games for charity for the 8th year in a row. If you want to support me, watch, donate, or otherwise check it out visit my page. When our kid was born, we had the advantages of being able to have the support… Continue reading Extra-Life 2022
Givin Gifts
(and the joys of mail in a pandemic) So the last few years have introduced a few changes in my already busy online environment. One noteworthy change was the demise of RedditGifts with their last exchange being held in December of 2021 and the actual deletion of their website in January of 2022. If you’re… Continue reading Givin Gifts
Apparently time passed… it is now 2021 and we’re in the midst of a pandemic.
So this is my first update to the blog in a VERY long time. But I figured that since I’ve gone through a few iterations of my webspace in all of this time and haven’t bothered to write any life updates in 5 years (and LIFE has happened!), I probably should update in one way… Continue reading Apparently time passed… it is now 2021 and we’re in the midst of a pandemic.
Oh 2016…
It's been a rough year for many folks: lots of celebrity deaths that impacted people particularly hard, lots of negativity across the American political spectrum, lots of negative news stories, lots of hardship economically and otherwise. Some have cried out about how horrible 2016 is as a year. And I hesitate to paint the entire… Continue reading Oh 2016…
More Gilmore Girls thoughts (though this time reflecting more on A Year in the Life)
Still no overt spoilers though I might recommend watching the revival before reading on, it's not necessary, but it might help. I'll type a bit about the emotions that the show has for me. I think part of why this show is so influential to me is that Rory's character is so close to my… Continue reading More Gilmore Girls thoughts (though this time reflecting more on A Year in the Life)
Because Gilmore Girls is back in a big way…
… I figured I'd type a bit about the show without spoilering anything of the new episodes (note that I'm typing this shortly before viewing the 2nd of the 4 Netflix episodes, still basking in the myriad of emotions that the very first of these new episodes brought on… but I refuse to spoiler the… Continue reading Because Gilmore Girls is back in a big way…
Thinking about technology…
… specifically the app form of technology. We were talking about social media at the pub tonight and I got to thinking about my reasons for not using Snapchat (which can be briefly summarized as being because I find Facebook and Twitter to satisfy my social media needs for the most part)… and then I… Continue reading Thinking about technology…
Christmas wishes
So the holidays are coming. And inevitably people ask me what I want for Christmas. Now I pretty much always have an Amazon wishlist with stuff listed that I'm wanting. And this does include some of the items I've been eyeing. But I still often get questions as to what I want, and for the… Continue reading Christmas wishes
It's getting chillier outside
And it's quite hard to believe how far into November it is given how little snow is on the ground at the moment (though it did snow earlier today it was mostly gone by the time I went to run some errands tonight and catch some Pokemon (not as much Pokemon as usual but that… Continue reading It's getting chillier outside
