End of the work year
Dec. 30th, 2021 11:48 pmI have several Yuletide fics bookmarked and I planned to finally get started on my rec list so I can post if before reveals (not sure I will find time tomorrow), but after more than ten hours at the office today all I wanted was to sit down, chat a little with DD who finally returned from vacation, and then finally start playing a new game without feeling guilty about it. (Guilty is not exactly the right word, the problem was more that I didn't trust myself not to spend too much time playing if the game turned out to be great. The past three days, instead of starting a new game, I instead went back to "Ori and the Blind Forest" and finally got the map to 100%.)
I played about an hour and a half of Ring of Pain, a creepy ~roguelite card game, and got to level 13 (of 16 main levels, I think, and then there is probably a boss fight(?).) That probably sounds more impressive than it was, I mostly died a lot earlier and I only got that far because I was sneaking past everything, which would not have worked against a boss. I enjoyed it, I like the atmosphere. There's not a lot of story so far and I don't think it'll keep my attention for long, but it's fun for now and can be played quickly and in small chunks, which is convenient.
Now I have a week's vacation! (I kept having to stop myself from thinking that taking a vacation right now is very bad timing because there's so much work to do at the office. That's always true.) LB and I wanted to go skiing but sadly that won't work because of the weather, so we'll see what we'll do.
