Watch the lightnin’ when it lights up the skies

Posted on by Shawshank

Well, the weather finally caught up with us. It’s raining/drizzling out there. It looks like the sky has been leaking for a while now. The plants and grass will like the rain. I have a Chaucer on my lap, already. Pippin is looking out the door watching the rain drops fall.

The coffee has been brewed, and let me tell you that I can truly make a damn fine cup of coffee. It is pretty good. Not too bad for insert name of coffee that’s on sale, and tap water.

It’s Monday today, and that means it’s brunch day! The bacon has been defrosted, and in a couple of hours, I’ll be starting to cook. I always look forward to brunch day. I’ll be having the usual – bacon, eggs, and hash browns. Crystal will be having waffles, and some bacon. Maybe she’ll put peanut butter on the waffles today.

Other than that, I’d say that today is a day of sloth. I don’t think that I have to leave for anything, so it’s gonna be a nice day of pretty much doing nothing. So let’s get the day started!

Can I get my coffee refilled first?

More Zelda musings

Here we are again, me talking about Tears of the Kingdom. Just when I think I know what I’m doing, shit will enviably go sideways! But I’m slowly getting the handle in things. I’m currently ignoring all the main quests – I’m doing side quests, exploring, and just general fuckery.

Crystal is currently playing. For the last couple of weeks, I think, she’s been deep under Hyrule, exploring the Depths. I’ve been down a few times, but she has a huge chunk of it mapped, where I have just a small smattering. On the other hand, I have just about the whole top side map opened up. So we’re doing the same thing, but in completely different areas.

I’m doing all the “useless” side quests, like taking pictures for Sayge in Hateno, which gives me new paraglider skins. I also travelled up to Death Mountain, to get some Goron spice so I can start to grow my own food stuff. That’s pretty neat.

I also did a handful of quests in Tarrey Town – and subsequently I own a plot of land, and have a quant two room “dream home”. I’ll be able to build on that. I can have ip to 15 rooms, so it’ll be a build over time, to be a Barbie dream house.

You can’t tell me how to play the game!
