But I’ve been waking up with your voice in my head and I’m tryna send a message and let you know that

Posted on by Shawshank

Good morning everyone. It’s still dark outside, but the news is fresh, and the coffee is hot. We got Chaucer snuggled up in between us. It’s Monday morning, and I have the closing shift tonight.

Work yesterday wasn’t not bad at all. It wasn’t busy but the people that did come in we took care of and they left happy. The day passed pretty quickly, even though it was quiet. I think most sane people didn’t want to leave the house because it’s so cold out.

Thankfully though, we’re on a bit of a warm up right now. Which is much like here. It’ll be like an early spring! Not really, but it’ll feel like it for sure.

As you can tell from me waxing poetic about the weather, I don’t have anything new to convey to all y’all so I’m gonna wrap this up. Have a great Monday.

Let’s see what Trudeau does today.

So deck those halls, trim those trees, raise up cups of Christmas cheer

I really didn’t want to get out of bed this morning. I was very snuggly. I tried to snuggle The Beautiful One, but the way she lays when she’s watching her TikTok’s, is pretty much impossible to snuggle her. But I tried anyways.

Yesterday at work wasn’t too bad. It was busy in the morning, and as the day went on, it slowed down a little. By the time we arrived at closing time? It had pretty much fallen off. But we got what needed to be done.

But now I’m on some days off, which are really nice. I’ll pop out to the tiny grocery store to see if they have any poinsettias. If they do I’ll get one for my grandmother for Christmas. I don’t want to, and can’t afford to get her a drawer full of sugar free candy.

But it’ll be chore day here today. And a massive fight in Persona 5 Royal. It took Crystal most of the day yesterday to finally beat the boss. So I’m definitely not looking forward to the fight. I’m gonna change to easy, before the fight. Hopefully it won’t take me 5 hours.

Fingers crossed.

Coffee.

Continuing on with No Man’s Sky

Posted on by Shawshank

It’s been a while since I’ve posted about No Man’s Sky. I actually uploaded these pictures, probably about 3ish weeks ago, and them promptly forgot to post the next time we went over to Shandy Acres for Sunday dinner.

So yeah, this is my current ship. I bounced around with one or two others, but I found I was having to acquire more and more launch fuel. It was quite frankly, annoying. I knew I had to find a Class ‘S’ ship with solar sails. The solar sails recharge the starship launchers. Finally, I found another one.

It was kinda annoying switching ships, I had dumped a lot of credits into the old one, but I hated how it looked. This one is far more elegant.

So yeah, this is the newest Theseus. I’m slowly switching out all the substandard parts to fully a class parts.

In order to pay for all this, I’ve been doing a bit of pirating. But I’m a pirate with some morels. I don’t go after the freighters, just the cargo pods that float next them. After I’ve plundered all the cargo pods, I’ll warp back to my “home” system. Then I’ll hit up the space station, and sell all the pirated stuff. Then, I’ll buy what I can there, and sell it in my base in the pirate controlled area.

I’ve been making some bank.

Also to help with making some money, I have a fleet. I send 5 ships out on the longest expeditions I have access too, and they will bring me back around a million or so credits once a day.

Last week I think, I added 5 more ships to the fleet, bring the number of ships up to 10.

I like this game. More than I thought I would. I don’t have it on the easiest setting or the hardest. It’s perfect for when I don’t have a lot of brain power to expend on it. It relaxes me as well.
