Weekly Reset: Racing Through January

Weekly Reset: Racing Through January

Somehow January is over half over and we’re definitely into 2022 now. Still, 17 days in and I don’t have a ton of desire to do a whole lot of anything new and constructive. Gaming wise, I’m still poking at some old games that I’ve previously put some time into, still earning those leftover achievements. After playing through Star Wars Episode I Racer, I’ve continued with the racing games,…

Weekly Reset: Slowly Building Up to It

Weekly Reset: Slowly Building Up to It

We’re a full week into 2022 and I’ve just been going with the flow. I’ve not had the desire to start anything truly new and I’ve been using the time to just kind of poke at some things. Gaming wise, I’ve been poking at some old games that I’ve previously put some time into, earning some leftover achievements or really digging in to it for the first time. For instance, one of the games I beat…

Weekly Reset: Yearly Reset

Weekly Reset: Yearly Reset

I guess it’s 2022. I mean, I know it’s 2022, that is what the calendar says but unlike last year, where coming into January I felt that maybe things were looking up and changing for the better, it just kind of feels like we’re now running in place or on a treadmill that is maybe moving us backwards. I’m not even sure I know where I’m going with that thought process. It’s a cute dumpster…

My 2021

I love stats and keep lists of everything. So here’s my 2021 in games, movies, TV, books, and music (originally posted in a thread on Twitter although this one might have a bit more to it). I saw 201 movies this year (likely will hit 202 before midnight). The first was Star Wars and the last will likely also be Star Wars (starting it now). Digital films on Xbox Video is where I watched most of…

Weekly Reset - 15 November 2021

Weekly Reset – 15 November 2021

The holidays are fast approaching which means that everyone at work is trying to stuff as much as they can in before they take off or only work like a day or two a week for until the new year. I of course do not have 20 days of vacation time left running into the holidays so I’ll be there but hopefully it will quiet down once everyone goes on their breaks. Anyway, it was another game heavy week…

Weekly Reset – 15 November 2021

I’m a day late on this but didn’t want to not do a write up so, here we go. Last week was the big one in terms of games for me. Three games I was looking forward to (well technically five) over three straight days. As such, I played more games last week than anything else. No new films (Shang Chi is on the docket by my two oldest want to watch it and they had to work on Saturday and Sunday…

31 Days of Dread – Week 4

I’m a day late on this but, while I thought about just skipping it. This has been good for me. It’s not anywhere my best writing, in fact, most of it is shit, but it’s getting me back in the habit and given me some ideas that maybe I’ll turn into actual pieces that aren’t just a list of what I’ve been doing. Anyway, spooky season is almost over, in fact this was the last full week of it. I…
