life’s stats and photo journal pages have been updated. Not too much interesting this time around… life has been crazy, but not due to trips, at least.

It was a really weird Christmas, weather-wise. Mostly because it was super warm out on Christmas day and we sat outside on the deck with a bottle of wine, playing Paperback.

I also got Playstation VR for Black Friday, and have been playing a lot of Beat Saber. I’m consistently passing Expert songs now, but am nowhere close to passing an Expert+. I also highly recommend Astro Bot Rescue Mission as a game that makes extremely good use of VR, and is just generally adorable besides.

Otherwise, there isn’t much to update. We had a small group over last night for New Year’s, and ended up starting a game of Salem after midnight (which was great and actually only lasted until about 2 AM since Ben and Steve are so fast).

Lots of photos of everything are at photos, as always. That, this journal, and life are about the only parts of my site I actually update, nowadays.

I’ve been seeing a bunch of “Decade in review” posts pop up recently, and I guess it could be interesting to do one for myself, as well. The highlights though would be something like:

• Moved back to Pittsburgh
• Got married
• Bought a house
• Lost a parent
• Had something like five or six years in a row with (at least) 4 weddings to attend

It’s been an eventful 10 years, and I hope the next 10 have a lot fewer big life events.

(Also, related to my reverse games post, we tried Hey That’s Your Fish yesterday and it didn’t work very well. I think the game needs more tweaks to placement or movement rules to be viable as a reverse game.)
