I finished Assassin's Creed Mirage, and am looking forward to go back to Origins, Odyssey, and Valhalla with my formula of just having my character be wildly over powered from the beginning

Thought I was just coming down with a cold - and maybe that's right - but my headache has subsided not at all and I feel both super cold and like I'm burning up.

Waited weeks for a book, and when it was finally ready, I realized I'd placed a hold on the ebook version instead of the audiobook version. 🤦♂️

Last time I counted was in December, when I had 305 games.
I don't even think I've played a game since last December lol

Age of Myth - Michael J Sullivan
I enjoyed the book, though some of the idiosyncracies in technology and just how guileless some of the characters were was a bit jarring at times. I'll probably check out the rest of the series.

I did some yard work last week and got hit by some poison ivy.
Several people have told me "It could have been poison oak, you know."
