Christmassy Sunday
Dec. 3rd, 2017 11:41 pmYup, today turned out to be largely dedicated to getting decorations for our house, and doing the interior stuff. Mom and I headed over to one of the local dollar stores and picked up a bunch of ribbons, bows, sparkly reindeer, sparkly snowflakes, and big ball ornaments to hang around outside. (I also grabbed some toothbrushes and toiletry stuff for work -- we're making a bag to give to Ronald McDonald House later.) Then, after the Pats game (we won, yay), I helped her decorate our living room. No tree -- we don't have the room and don't need the expense -- so instead we hung up a bunch of our ornaments from the curtain rod/curtains with ribbon, and put the others on our new mantelpiece, along with our stockings. Yeah, for the first time I can hang my stocking by a chimney! XD Shame I only moved into a house with a fireplace long after I stopped believing in Santa. . .ah well. The house looks good, and I'm looking forward to seeing what Mom does with the outside while I'm at work tomorrow.
This DOES mean that some of my planned activities fell by the wayside -- while I watched all of my Helloween sets (he visited the creepiest area EVER in Darkwood, just barely surviving an ambush by human spiders; and did some sidequesting in The Evil Within 2, including taking down some sawblade ladies and decently stealthing a Japanese Horror Lady), I never got to Linkara. Fortunately, I do have this Friday off, so I can catch up on my episodes then. I also played just a pinch of BioShock this evening -- I've completed my Big Daddy transformation, got myself a bunch of goodies, and have collected a Little Sister to serve as my "guide." Left it at the autosave for what I believe is the last area -- the Proving Grounds. Gotta fight my way over to Fontaine! This upcoming weekend might be my last for this particular entry in the franchise. We'll see how it goes! And I did get my page done in "Secundus 2" as well -- Victor has given Gordon Tannen a fright, which he's been dying to do for ages. Too bad it comes with the side effect of frightening everyone else in the room, as he will see shortly. Ah well -- his friends will continue to stick up for him, and that's what matters.
At any rate, I've answered the stuff in my inbox and set up my Valice Multiverse queue -- time to get to bed, I think. Back to editing Excel stuff tomorrow, blah. Gotta be done, though. Night all!
