Have to do a release of Summit. And a lot of cleaning around the house.

Hanging out with my goblin cat and trying to enjoy my time off without letting the anxiety of being unemployed set in.

Waiting patiently for new Vans to arrive.

Edit: Also playing Ground Zero. It’s an indie survival horror game.

Chores chores chores. Changed and washed the bedsheets, all the kitty litter, garden, saw a small ground mammal that was not a squirrel, worried about a friend, ate lunch, planned dinner, did husband put the blanket in the dryer? I suspect not. I should ask.

Watched Attack of the Clones today

Im working on a music video for some pop star I’ve never heard of and can’t remember the name of. But they have a pretty massive actress involved so its big as far as music videos go. Long ass day though and it’s hotter’n’hell out

Not much this morning. Just on my laptop with a coffee next to me downtown. For this afternoon though, probably just getting back into language learning to keep my brain active.

This evening though, gonna do a run by the lake shore. I’m also gonna message a bunch of friends I haven’t talked to in a long time, because I have been pretty bad at reaching out and hanging out with people this year.

Made baked potatoes and antipasto salad while family did a few chores. Played Wingspan. Now playing Sushi Go. Will do an art later. Only thing that would make the day better is if it was cool enough to go for a walk.

Well, this morning, I’m nursing a hangover, and learning an important lesson about making bulk cocktails: water them down, because there’s no need for ice if you keep bulk cocktails refrigerated. Also, the pumpkin spice espresso martini recipe I’d made several months ago came out annoyingly viscous.

But it was delicious otherwise, and I’d ended up drinking an entire bottle on my own last night. Luckily it was only ~50 proof.

Rolled down 80km of Italian alps today on the Alpe-Adria cycling route. Probably the nicest part of the route. Between Villach and Carnia including some 50+ km of the most beautiful rail to trail I’ve been on. With good weather as well. Honestly amazing day.

Norway’s constitutional day today, so started the off at 8 with canon shots from the castle where the royal families resided in the 11-1200’s followed by a speech from the mayor, then a parade through the city for the annual retelling of some of the towns heroes and legends from throughout history, and then hotdogs and ice cream and coffee in the sun before going home for breakfast and cake, and then the children’s parade through the streets from home just before 13. Now it’s gaming time while I listen to the party of the celebrating russ next door in the background.

Putter around in the garden while the pups and the hens frolic in the yard, then off to work this afternoon. Work is a doggie daycare/boarding/training facility and it’s a rather slow weekend, so basically it’ll be some cleaning but mostly 8hrs of chilling with a pack of dogs what’s going to be a lovely spring afternoon. I have no complaints.

I’m hard addicted to the Subnautica 2 EA, that’s been eating up most of my free time!

I didn’t have much expectations and I have to say it’s blown my socks off story, gameplay and graphics wise. It’s just like I opened Subnautica 1 for the first time again and I’m all for it.

Sulking as my mother cleans my room to try and fix my mess. Now I can’t do my plans in the order that they go into, and I can’t do them out of order because I overthink.

I’m going to start a new homebrew experiment making watermelon cucumber hard seltzer with lemon zest and a splash of apple juice. It probably needs sweetener after the sugars have become alcohol to bring back the watermelon flavour and maybe some mineral salt to give it seltzer character.
