It’s a new year! life’s<\/a> photo journal and stats pages have been updated. Not many surprises or changes this time around, which I suppose makes sense. I did add Grant to stats though, now that we see him around for board games. So…<\/p>\n

First photo of Grant:

\nSeptember 6, 2004 in front of Doherty, with Howard and Many.<\/p>\n

It’s otherwise been both an incredibly productive, and rather relaxing break. I’m really not looking forward to returning to work later this week.<\/p>\n

Other than finishing some housework, and dealing with my backlog of photos, I also made a lot of progress on the video game I’m working on. It’s kind of exciting to see things coming together.
\nI also finished a playthrough of Persona 5, which I think now stands as my favorite RPG of all time (surpassing even Skies of Arcadia), and possibly also my favorite video game… and all this despite not really caring for the ending of the game.<\/p>\n

It’s amusing to me that the Christmas present I was perhaps most excited about this year was a Swiffer Vac, so I can now swiffer the downstairs without having to pull out the vacuum to pick up the remnants afterward. So yay for that!<\/p>\n

We had some people over yesterday for New Year’s, and it was a nice evening of games and food and friends. There was a Sharon in town, which was also nice.
\n<\/p>\n

Hope everyone had a nice break, and here’s hoping 2018 ends up being a better year than the last one, in terms of the world…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
