I’m just a 40-something bearded guy trying to get a fresh start.

I got that devilish flow, Rock and Roll, no halo, we party rock

Good gray morning my friends. It looks like it going to rain out there. Hopefully not, as I have a delivery to do later on this morning. So we’ll play it by ear. Maybe shift the delivery to later on. Who knows.

It’s Thursday morning. We’re getting closer to the weekend. It’s grab weekend in TinyTown, so we’ll probably do groceries on Sunday, so Crystal can watch the grad parade live. Exciting!

Yesterday, I built BossLadies patio furniture, because she has no time to actually do it herself. She needs them for Saturday, as she’s hosting a grad party for her daughter.

The furniture is wicked heavy, my hands and arms are very stiff and sore this morning. it was fun to build them, I had music blaring and with some songs, I was singing along.

Ok, time to mainline some coffee. Let’s get the day started!

It’s a gray, cool morning out there today. The bed was very snuggly this morning, but I’m still wearing a hoodie this morning. Shorts, but a hoodie. Good morning everyone. I hope that you’re having a good Wednesday morning so far.

Yesterday was a very slow day. I got in and BossLady was at a consult, then had a meeting at her kids school. So much drama is going on. Way more than what I’m comfortable dealing with. After all the dust settled, I asked to take off around 3:30, because there was simply nothing left to do.

After work, I stopped quickly at the grocery store to pick up a few things. It was humid, and I was very warm. Crystal cooked dinner, and I just wasn’t hungry. But I did have something to eat.

Crystal worked on another pair of pants, and when she had finished, I helped to model them. We were twinsies for a photo.

Other than that, we watched an episode of FBI, Supernatural, CSI, and we finished out the night with part of an Antiques Roadshow episode. It was a very good night.

And now here we’re are. Let’s all have a coffee cup salute to the day! Happy Wednesday y’all!

Awake. I was up a little early this morning. Just a little too warm in the bed. I managed to stick it out until 6:45. As I type this, the alarm hasn’t even gone off yet. Crystal was up a little bit before me, and was already on the couch when I got up.

Yesterday was really nice. We didn’t do shit. We just took turns paying TotK. It was nice. Since we didn’t do too much, there’s not too much to write about this morning.

Back to work in a couple of hours. The sun is slowly coming out from behind the clouds. Last night around dinner, the humidity is slowly coming back.

Ok, I know this is a short one. But I’m still waking up. Let’s all have a great day, happy Tuesday everyone!

Tears of the Kingdom… again?!

Posted on by Shawshank

Yep here we are again, talk talk talkin about Tears of the Kingdom. We’ve still been playing most evenings for at least a couple of hours for me. And I think a couple days a week for a few hours for Crystal. She’s almost mapped out the entire depths, which is freakin awesome.

Me, I haven’t done too much in the depths. It’s dark, and there’s Gloom everywhere. And with the gloom you can only travel certain ways to get to where you want to go. I don’t really like that, but I know eventually, I’m going to have to get over myself and get the heck underground.

Don’t even get me started on the skylands either. There’s so much I need to do still. But lately, I’ve been on a side adventure, and mini quest kick. They’re fun.

  • Yiga baby!
  • Play Freebird!

I did do one think of note. I managed to figure out the wind shrine over Rito Village. I couldn’t figure out how to start the turbines, but I quickly googled it, and soon as I read how to do it, I closed the tab.

After I had read that, the first part of the shrine was a cake walk. The boss wasn’t even too terribly difficult. I used the wrong type of weapon on them, when after the fact I read to use a totally different fused part. Oh well, all finished. I guess three Devine beasts/SAGES to go.

So yeah, I saved the village, and they’re totes happy, and like in Lurelin Village – I’m revered as a god. I get everything for free when I travel to Hyrule’s vacation resort. Except the Rito‘s are cheap bastards. Not even a discount or anything there. That’s ok. I’m sure they have a few side quests for me.

I also was on a mission from god – to put the band back together. I wouldn’t call the Stable Trotters the next Blues Brothers, as I think they only know one song – the stable theme. It’s cool though, they’re like a shitty garage band. When they come out with the next single, Link can totally go hipster on everyone.

Last night I quickly finished off another side quest, and got the final piece of Yiga armour. It looks pretty awesome, and I don’t have to worry about the random Yiga bastards wandering around all over the place.
