I am not entirely sure I have anything specific I can talk about tonight. Let’s do a quick roundup of random followup!
Haven’t been sleeping well. Bad dreams. Stressed. Still looking for work – please send me job postings for desktop support, customer support, system or network admin jobs, anything in that wheelhouse. Would love a remote job or something in the Portland area (not really keen on relocating.)
Dodgers are doing well lately. As I write this they’re up 6-0 against the Arizona Diamondbacks. I was mad at them for how clumsily they handled Shohei Ohtani’s first home run ball as a Dodger but now I’m back to normal fandom levels.
Dad’s on his Alaskan cruise and it’s been quiet around here. I did laundry today and I’d like to do some cleaning before he gets back.
Still upset at how brutally the student protestors are being treated, in Portland and all over the country. Right-wing insurrectionists get gentle treatment and bus rides from the cops; students get riot gear, beatings, and raids. Goes to show where our leadership’s priorities lie.
Had a good stream tonight. I was nervous all day but once I started playing I got in to the game. Doing a good karma run, so I treated Gob with respect, helped Micky out with purified water, and am doing Moira’s quests for the Wasteland Survival Guide. I tried to help Leo kick his chem habit but I didn’t have enough Speech even though it gave me a 49% chance. Ah, well, them’s the breaks. Did fix all the water pipes, though. And all that good karma got me a visit from the jerk Talon mercs, which led to my first death. I don’t think anyone was watching the stream when it happened, though…
Need to find some royalty free music so I can mod my Fallout game to where I can use the in-game radio. I miss Three Dog! When I find enough music and get it working I’ll write up a post with instructions for anyone else to follow.
Want to do another stream this weekend but can’t schedule it until I know when dad is returning because I have to be ready to pick him up from the airport, and dad didn’t share his itinerary with me.
Mallrats is going to be my next View Askew review. It appears to only be available for rent or purchase, not on one of the streaming services I already pay for, unfortunately. I’ll watch it tonight or tomorrow and report back here with a mini-review.
Tomorrow my major plans are: modding Fallout 3, looking for jobs, and posting more battlemaps for pay-what-you-want on my Ko-Fi page. Rise and grind, am I right?
My car is still running well. I need to top up the antifreeze/coolant, and there’s a minor issue of the windshield sprayer not working on the driver’s side, but that Check Engine light has not come back on. That’s fixed, I’m sure of it.
