  • I got through Sector 44 by the slimmest of margins in Paper Apps Galaxy.

  • Today I listened to the first two episodes of It’s Story Time With Wil Wheaton and enjoyed them thoroughly. Wil got Levar Burton's blessing to continue the legacy of his excellent speculative fiction podcast and has selected stellar short science fiction for the first two episodes.

    Wil has narrated some exceptional audiobooks and I loved his older podcasts so this felt like a comfort podcast from the start.

    "Rock, Paper, Scissors, Love, Death" by Caroline M. Yoachim in the first episode is superb and I recommend it wholeheartedly.

    Thanks for making something special, @wilwheaton.net !

  • I had a haircut for the first time in probably six months, so it seemed like a good time to do my periodic neon filter selfie.

  • My running medals have been tucked away in a box for a few years, with new ones joining the collection now and then. I'd like to display them again, so yesterday I tried them out on a couple medal display racks. It's a bit crowded, but I think I'll get them up this weekend.

    With Zombies, Run! potentially ending after cryptodorks acquired and mismanaged it, I'm feeling particularly proud/nostalgic for the years of virtual races I've done. 2025 might be the first year in a decade without at least one virtual race from that team.

  • I've been at home much of this week caring for a sick kid, but today I'm back at the office and could clear sector 43 in Paper Apps Galaxy.

  • I was home with a sick kid the past two days, but today I was able to get in sector 38 of Paper Apps Galaxy here at my work desk.

  • The Switch 2 direct reaffirmed for me that I won't be getting one any time soon. There wasn't a game there that I absolutely have to play, though I'm sure I'll enjoy some of them once I do have a Switch 2. The cost of the system and increased size definitely make me want to wait for a smaller, cheaper, portable-first Lite model.

  • Sector 35 flew by. Just 9 more remain in the game, so I should be finished by the second week of April.

    Next I'm thinking of making daily turns of Koala Rescue Club my new paper game at work.

  • Sector 36 of Paper Apps Galaxy was a breeze because of the Double Shot upgrade.
