    Tried skiing and it was really fun. Surprisingly did not hurt myself wiping out or crashing into a tree.

    Thinking of trying snowboarding next year.

    I have a trip to Japan coming up very shortly that I’m looking forward to. Made a few Cafe reservations a little while ago, I’ll be riding with a drift instructor around a few tracks at Ebisu Circuit, planning on visiting Nara to see the deer, going to a few PokeCenters, and visiting a bunch of second hand stores for books, games, and merch.

    After years of trying to build a solid workout routine I’ve managed to do at least 40 min of cardio every morning for the last two months, to the point where I’m craving more.

    I’ve started taking my writing seriously as well, and after some online courses have vastly improved over the last year. I’m working on a collection of short stories now.

    The days are finally longer than the nights and I’m starting to see grass underneath the snow. I’m looking forward to start working in the vegetable garden and being able to have a nice cup of tea outside in the sun.

      Enjoy it! We’re going the opposite way now. One of the major downsides of living in the southern hemisphere is people forgot why the holiday season landed in the middle of winter. It was to give people something to look forward to and help them through the dark months… There is NOTHING like that during the winter here. It can be pretty bleak!

    Tesla’s stock further dipping (sorry couldn’t resist).

    I’m about to build my first PC, which will incidentally also be my first Linux daily driver. Very excited for this project! I’m sure it will have some challenges but I think it’s going to be a great machine.

        Waiting to nab a 9070 at a semi-reasonable price (no dream of MSRP lol) and then basically making a Bazzite machine. AMD processor exact model tbd. 32gb ram, 512gb-1TB internal SSD for main system.

          I JUST installed Bazzite last night on my kids computer. Working on getting all his favorite games setup and hopefully some new ones so I’ll be able to help troubleshoot with him later on

              I got most of his games to run right out of steam because they support Linux. But I’m running into issues with third party games and Nvidia drivers right now

              Left 4 Dead runs fine. Control plays fine. Can’t get lockdown protocol to run getting a weird direct 3D error

    I am moving out of Texas. Our house goes on the market in a couple of weeks and once it’s sold we’ll be heading to New England.

    I’m going on a vacation to South Carolina with my girlfriend and her family for a week. I’ve never been there, so I’m excited to see what’s in store

    My younger daughter’s 3rd birthday is next week. That’ll be pretty fun.

    We’re also going on a family vacation this summer across the country. We had been planning to fly, but after comparing prices we discovered it would be cheaper to rent an RV and make it a road trip. I’m looking forward to doing that with my kids.

    In May my spouse and I are going away together for a few days without the kids for the first time in a decade.

    The tulip and daffodil leaves are emerging in our gardens and soon we will have flowers.

    Our church is starting up again this week & I love choir.
