Back in Oakland and back in the swing of things. On call over Christmas isn't
so bad when there are no engineers pushing changes to break things. I spent
the day reading Troika! source books, particularly
I took some time to rearrange the apartment which has really been making me
feel claustrophobic. I plan on starting Gulliver's Travels and continuing
my Dwarf Fortress assuming I can figure out why my dwarven manager has stopped
managing
Honestly spent way too much of today playing Dwarf Fortress. It's somehow more
addicting than Rimworld### quite an impressive feat. But hey, it's Christmas, I
can do what I want. I found my old Bitcoin wallet with half a bitcoin in it.
That's a nice little treat itself. Reading Gulliver's Travels while my wife
lays in my lap and watches boys love anime makes for as cozy of a Christmas as
I can hope for at this point in my life.
Day spent visiting relatives. I got smoked in cards.
Finished the last of my post-trip chores and probably would have benefited
from sleeping in a few more hours. Looking at housing is depressing. Markets
that I'm looking at are horribly inflated.
Is there a reason to go to work when there's nothing to be done during the
change freeze? It's like the same ghost-town feeling I got in the early days
of Covid, walking down Market in SF.
I had a dream I was endlessly in a cycle of picking out groceries from a very
crowded Trader Joe's, forgetting my cart, leaving the store, realizing I
never purchased anything and going back in.
First run-in with death in Dwarf Fortress. Titans are freaky. Then I finished
Midnight Gospel's first season. It'd be nice to find a way to keep some of
those thoughts on death with me at all times. Maybe I'd be a better person.
My Dwarven fortress was destroyed by a dragon. My friend and I rejoined a
Mumble server we haven't been in for years to catch up with video game
friends from long ago. Nothing has changed. Happy New Year!
