It's Halloween! My favorite holiday!
It's been a wild little while since my last gemlog. I went on a vacation that
turned out to be WAY better for my mental health than I had originally
anticipated, almost quit my job (and then didn't) and got some fun new hardware
things to play with.
So, what's on the agenda for today?
So far, the plan is to drink drinks, play crokinole and keyforge while giving
candy to trick or treaters, then once the crowd starts to thin I'm going to
settle down with my husband and watch Halloween movies. Here's a few of the
options on the list:
We are mostly sticking to things we've got on blu ray, though my husband
suggested we also watch the new Hulu documentary about McKamey Manor. I'm not
sure I'm totally down to watch that tonight, tbh, since Russ McKamey doesn't
actually operate a haunted house so much as he just likes torturing people, but
we'll see! I've been glued to the TV watching the Reckless Ben youtube videos
taking down McKamey Manor, so maybe this will be interesting.
I considered inviting friends over, but I'm kind of socially exhausted after a
busy weekend and work stress so I'll just have friends over some weekend for a
chill evening.
Lately I've been playing a lot of indie dungeon crawler games. I've been
playing a lot of The Quest, which feels a lot like elder scrolls arena, and I've
also really been enjoying Vaporum and StarCrawlers, which are a more puzzley
steampunk game and a space station cyberpunk game, respectively. StarCrawlers
is actually EXCELLENT in the vibes department, and I get to do contracts for a
worker's union, so it gets 5 stars from me.
That's about all I've got so far. Soon I'm going to work on writing a program
that sniffs my gemlog entries and updates index.gmi with date and title, but I
get the feeling that will be enougb of a romp to warrant its own writeup.
