#1. Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte.
Probably my favorite book of all time because I love Jane. I love that she is a very human character who chooses to be good.

My PC has developed a memory issue and it is super annoying. Kept crashing while I was trying to play WoW.
I think I can fix it by buying new RAM sticks so that is what I will try. But if that doesn't do it I am out of gaming for a while right before Midnight launches. :(

Seeing the 4chan-Epstein connection is just so gross. Am I surprised? Not really, but kind of.
It amazes me that vile people had real connections to power when I wanted to just write them all off as internet trolls. But then look at where the fuck we are now as a country.
Ugh.

The worst part of the giant ice/snow storm passed us by and went South. I think my brother got it worse in Dallas.
We ended with very minimal ice and about 4-5 inches of snow with some drifts. The main issue here is how cold it is. We won't get above freezing again until maybe Tuesday.

We are sitting at 0 degrees F and that is super cold for any part of Texas. usually our coldest temperatures are in the teens.
Two of my feral cats I feed and their two kittens made it through the night. (I can't catch them or they would be in the garage.)

Tomorrow we get hit with the snowpocalypse. It's supposed to be as bad as 2021. Ugh. I hope not.
I got groceries for everyone today and winterized both houses as best as I could. Hopefully the electricity stays on and no one's water freezes.

I never thought I would want a He-Man live action movie, but damn that trailer takes all the best parts of the 80s cartoon I grew up on and makes it look GOOD.
I'm actually excited for this movie. XD
Which cracks me up because I made fun of the cartoon even when I was a kid.

It is snowing and snowing hard. The patio is already covered up. This was supposed to be a "light dusting". It won't be unless this stops soon. It has only snowed about 30 minutes. Usually takes an hour or two to cover things because the ground is too warm for it to stick.

I have found a new hyper-fixation game. Quarantine Zone: The Last Check.
Basically you are screening people during a zombie apocalypse mixed with base management and some random drone fighting. I hate the drone part, but the rest is really fun.

Sorry, folks. Seven days to go and 50% funded. We'll need a modern internet miracle to see these lovely ladies get their sequel. I was always worried that the visuals were not appealing to most VN gamers, but... ouch

I dyed my hair last night for the first time in a couple of years. I was aiming for platinum blond and I got a weird shade of light gray. I'm not sure what I think of it.
I like having a color around my face...but gray?
It was solid old lady white before I dyed it. I do like it better than that.

Man, I started the day with a migraine which is never fun.
Then one of my inside cats escaped into the world and I had to track his ass down. (He is back inside and safe.)
My headache was getting better then I saw the news and now it is just as bad as when it woke me up. UGH.

I feel like the world as a whole is going to have to take out the U.S. for their own safety. And I won't blame them if that happens.
Like what the fuck?! The American people don't want or condone this. Orange Cheeto needs to be deposed and arrested. Congress is useless and they should all be fired.

I am so glad that 2025 just has a few hours left. It was a real 'Don't let the door hit your ass on the way out' kind of year for me.
The 20s as a whole have been a real shit decade.
I hope 2026 is better.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, Y'all! I hope you are having a wonderful day whatever you celebrate. Vave some pie and tasty food regardless.

Today is a beautiful day by any measure. It is sunny, just a little wind and about 82.
But that is way way abnormal for late December even in Texas. Even for Austin, much less here in Amarillo. We had to turn the AC on. O.o
I'm still going to enjoy the lovely day....but damn.

The Christmasing has started and I have one window decorated. I know it's late, but 2025 has been terrible. My goal is to get the trees up by Christmas eve and I think I will make that.
I have to do two, one at home and one at my Dad's house. They are going to stay up for most of January too.

Every day from here on out gets a little bit longer and warmer until June. In my hemisphere anyway. :)

I'm annoyed that Yesterday Me decided going to pick up groceries at 10AM was a great idea. I don't want to!
I wish they would deliver to my house. I don't feel like driving 15 minutes to the store. 40 minutes there and back.
Hopefully that is my big issue with the day though.

The Night Elf houses on the beta are just beautiful. I don't have access, but I watched this video on youtube. The Belf houses are also awesome.
I hope we get Draenei houses too. I'm trying to recreate their aesthetic of round rooms with pointy doors and it is hard.

I am annoyed that there is not a Winterveil tree available from any of the holiday vendors. Why not? I love that people are super creative and making their own versions, but how about something for those of us who are mid at best when it comes to decorating?

In WoW, I finally figured out how to get some glowy decor I sunk too far into the ground out yesterday. So my yard no longer has a permanent awkward glowy spot.
If this is you, hit decor and then advanced. You will get a button that lists everything you have placed in and out of your house.

I have a brown stripey cat the cat distribution service has sent my way, no matter that I already have three house cats. He is a nice boy, named Brownie for now. Definitely used to be someone's house cat and he does not want to live outside.
Also I spotted three siamese-ish kittens in the bushes.
