So I don't know where yall all are but here in Tx a steak from Walmart will run you about twenty bucks a pop. Less if you go early and snag the discounted meat that needs to be cooked that day. But still, it's not cheap. Ground beef is seven or more per pound. So to feed all four kids and the husband we end up...
When do you listen to the radio? In the car, in the shop, while walking around, while doing other things that require your visual attention. Same goes for audiobooks, music, etc. Looking at a book or watching a show requires twice the time and effort because you can't really do other work while giving all your...
We went to a nice Italian place we had never been to before. Food was good, didn't get sick after eating. They make their own tiramisu which was great, most of the places closer to us use Sysco premade stuff and still charge five bucks for it. The kids were bummed the kids menu was actual Italian food in kids...
I spent the day playing Skyrim. I made it through the Dawnguard quests with Serana "helping" along the way. A vampire princess who is hundreds of years old can't one shot a random bandit but the rat hermit who has been living off skeevers in a cave for six months nearly kills us both. I love this game. When I add...
This is kinda silly to point out but here we are, I mean, yes a game will be best played using the controller it was designed around. This isn't a thing to dwell on, but I had some notes. This weekend I saw an ad for preorders of the new Fable game. Having played the first two eons ago I figured I should give the...
I figured out how to use Indesign back then and made these little guys. Dioxazine was supposed to have more issues but I got a job shortly after. Jet's Cook Book This one was all the recipes I had collected and used often enough that I wanted to keep them in a little printed book. Feel free to print it out and try...
I've been continuously selling off the bulk of my Magic cards. Last month I set all my prices to like five cents under market and let the things fly. Hobbit cards have people buying again. Not going to invest in anymore for the shop outside of what extras we might need to offload when we buy personal packs in the...
It's not a new bike, its from 1993 but it's in flawless shape. My birthday is at the end of the month but I didn't want to get outbid on the ebay listing for it lol. It came with different handlebars and tires which I swapped on to my sons bike so he can take it to college. His is an old Raleigh we had in the garage...
This weekend is prerelease for the Hobbit Set. It costs $50 to enter. You get six packs of play boosters, a random foil card, and a spin down d20. (They removed stamped promos.) From that you create a 40ish card deck of the random stuff you pulled hoping you can play well enough with it. The event takes about four...
And I'm not talking about becoming a "sneaky archer". Yeah that's a fast way to get through stuff like the Dark Brotherhood quests and the Imperial/Stormcloak fights. But eventually you do have to go close quarters with things and you gotta splash one handed or magic. I'll spool up a new character who is a non human...
These were the go-to joke gift. Your grandparents had one, your boss had one, the shady sales guy at the car dealership had one. There was one in an episode of the OG British Office. If you haven't seen it, it's just a plastic robot toy fish covered in cheap airbrushed rubber that sings various songs while moving...
In an effort to speed run community college to catch up after leaving the Art Institute my parents had me take a summer classes. Classes were from 8am - 11pm every day for 5 weeks leaving me time to work in the afternoons. I had managed to get through a government and math class doing this without issue the first...
