The Same Old…
I’m still a disabled single parent looking after two kids in the north of England. Our house is a roof over our heads but perpetually falling apart. All these things tend to occupy my days since Em died in 2022. Both the kids are fantastic gobshites and I love them dearly.
Since another bout of COVID in early 2024, I’ve found myself struggling more and very short on spoons so apologies if I take four years to respond or something. It’s not you, it’s definitely me.
Currently…
At the time of writing I’m back on a Mignolaverse kick and rereading most of it. I’m halfway through Baltimore again and it’s still brilliant.
Film-wise, I’m still watching the usual tat. Typing this whilst watching Wes Craven’s Swamp Thing and loving it.
As ever, all over the shop musically but the past few weeks I’ve been in a Twilight Sad mood a fair bit. Nothing like a bit of misery to cheer me up.
Game wise, I’m playing a bunch of small bits and bobs here and there, punctuated as ever by bouts of Elder Scrolls Online, No Man’s Sky and Fallen London.
Hoping to get the house in decent enough shape to get a mog or two to move in again. Missing the cats a lot but this place is in too much disarray to welcome new chums just yet.
I’m still drawing cartoony games stuff to pass the time. I’m easily amused.
