Apparently while I was at work the other night there was a murder a few streets away from where I live. The victim was a 15 year old boy, and the murderer is still at large. I didn’t know the kid, but I knew his mother. I can’t imagine what must be going through her head right now… I’m not a parent myself, but it feels unnatural seeing someone younger having their life cut short.
More Okami Because Why Not
I gained enough energy tonight to play a little more Okami, seemed like a nice way to kill a little time before heading off to work. I’m slowly making my way through the tower on Oni Island. I was going to do a little more animating this evening, but after some extremely boring rest I wanted to elevate my brain with something a little more on the fun side. I’ll attempt animation tomorrow if I wake up on time. My sleep got a little fucky this afternoon when I heard the lawnmower…
Sunday Late Night Open Thread
I spent most of the day/evening in bed. I’ve slept like shit, but I did keep my eyes closed the entire time… I think this is what depression feels like.

Getting My Okami Fix
Decided to take an Okami break! I found the Dragon Palace, escaped a Dragon’s belly, and made my way to Oni Island. It was hours of new discoveries and secrets! I might play a bit more before calling it a night… I’m trying to stay up as long as possible to adjust my sleep schedule.
Friday Evening Open Thread
Not feeling well enough to post anything tonight, so I’ll just leave this here.

Is That Even Drinkable?
Escaping into SFM is like escaping into another universe, or in this type of setting a multiverse? Either way, having a drink with a friend and some good music sounds like a good place to lose myself before my head wanders to the land of sleep. I should have this video ready to deploy in another week or so, the ending is short n sweet.
Going Bananas, With Cocoa
I was feeling a bit of a lighter chocolaty mood tonight, which gave me the perfect opportunity to try the “Chocolate Monkey” tea I ordered recently from The Amazing Zon. Years ago I fell in love with a chocolate banana tea made by Republic of Tea, and when I finally made it down to my last bag of the stuff I wanted to see if there was a worthwhile replacement. It tastes pretty much the same, although a bit bolder because of it being a loose leaf tea instead of bagged. I’ve only had it straight so far, but I’m sure it would taste good with a splash of milk. It already tastes sweet enough on its own, so you don’t need to add much sweetner, if at all. It’s a healthy way to get that cocoa fix, and they say cocoa can help with depression, and it’s been really fucking depressing lately. So it’s good to drink something that can help AND not give you diabeetus. :v

Sunday Demon Slaying… and Other Stuff.
I’ve spent the better part of my weekend slaying demons, like I do on most weekends. Yesterday I progressed a bit in DOOM Eternal, and today I also progressed more into Bloodstained: Ritual Of The Night. It’s been another gray weekend, and the spooky vibe just seems right.
Aside from gaming, I’ve also accomplished in going through about one quarter of my closet. I re-organized my pants collection and pulled aside some garments that need repair/love. Sewing a button and turning some of my jeans into shorts is on the future to do list. I already cut up one pair, and now I’m contemplating if I want to personalize them or leave them plain… the material is thin enough that I’m uncertain if it would be worth it or not. I’ve also been contemplating decking out one of my jean jackets; perhaps add some patches to them to make my own style. It’s been awhile since I’ve done anything creative with my clothes.
