Sometimes I do things with my voice and I record it...sometimes I also make those recordings into videos on my YouTube or I stream my gameplay and roleplay on Twitch. I roleplay, am a Star Wars geek and I used to play Counter-Strike at a semi-pro level.

Although I had to have a break today, socially, to recharge myself, this holiday has been great so far and I'm kinda gutted that I only have tomorrow left before I head home! I feel like it's really been needed after what has felt like a pretty awful winter, but I am feeling the energy return again!
Hope everyone has a good holiday season / time to see family and friends - I'm sadly wrapped up under blankets and staying warm at my own place for Christmas cos flu / some kinda 'VID-like illness has hit me and I'm not risking the health of my folks this time of year! Take care all and stay safe!❄️

Sometimes being this observant is an actual curse - I've just confirmed that my newest housemate is a liar and a manipulator cos they neglected to tell me their boyfriend from the USA was staying with them in my house for the last 2 weeks. She tried to hide it until I asked when he's leaving! 1/2

Stupidly tired today out of nowhere - feel like I could sleep for a week and I don't know why! I suspect I might have been extremely active and/or sleeping in a contorted position last night as my shoulder is agony today and I feel like I've run a marathon when it comes to energy levels =/

Can't get over how much fun Where Winds Meet is - I've not played a game like it for a LONG time that has drawn me in to the point where I forget to eat my dinner whilst I get sidetracked playing the game for "just another half an hour"...I may have a cold dinner, but got the warm heart feels now! 😆

Just had to send one of the hardest types of message for me to send to one of my tenants who has not paid their rent yet and is now putting me in a financial predicament...I'm stuck unable to pay a bill for the household until they pay their rent which should have been due on the 27th...

Said it before but climbing in this game is oddly therapeutic! Today I made it to two solo Peaks; got a new sash and completed two badges (the Gourmand badge and the Solo expedition badge!) whilst listening to my favourite trance tunes...nothing like music (and my ADHD meds!) to focus the mind! 😀💙

It's my dad's birthday, and I am beaming from ear to ear after seeing a little video of him opening his present from mum! She handmade a napping quilt so that he can have a warm quilt to use whenever he needs to just "zonk out" as he calls it 😁
Happy birthday, pops! 💙

Caving in to the idea of a hot bath right now...it's been a while since I last had a full soak and today I am feeling like I could laze in the bath for a good while! Plus it helps my shoulder loosen up from my bad posture so everyone wins! 😁

Progress has been made! I can now get on the server and not encounter the issues with crashing that I was getting before...however now I have apparently got an invisible horse everytime I whistle for it...I'm getting closer to fixing it completely but holy crap is this annoying to troubleshoot!

Currently spent most of my day trying to get my PC to run RedM so I can play on the WildRP server again after a long break from RP - think the fact I have changed graphics card might be the issue as it has been crashing with the same error each time. Trying to get it fixed but this is annoying 😑

Installed my new 5070 graphics card today after a little doubt was overcome with regards to my PSU being able to power it without me having to replace / upgrade that as well! The plan worked out and I don't have to spend another £100+ on a new PSU just to appease my anxiety over the upgrade =]

It's comfort food season and this is my first autumnal kinda meal! Sausages, mashed potato with butter, black pepper + milk and in the baked beans I put a handful of my homegrown basket of fire chillies, dash of turmeric, chilli powder and coriander along with some black pepper...tasted awesome! 👌 😋

What kind of hours are 8am-10am and 4pm-6pm for a drop-off and returns section in the post office to be available for?! I now have to go back home and wait until 4pm just so I can come back and give my Amazon return to someone for collecting...waste of time, once again!

Today's been a washout; felt like I am gonna spew all day and I don't know if it's a stomach bug or something I ate...if it's the latter, then I gotta throw away food which might be perfectly good 🤦🏻♂️🤢

Sadly the new graphics card doesn't fit in my case due to it's length, so I'm having to return it and get a version intended for a "small form factor" case instead...the alternative is buying a new case which just isn't feasible having checked prices of larger cases these days 😑🤦♂️

Watching my Amazon account order page, constantly refreshing it in the hopes that the status changes from "Package Arrived At Delivery Depot" to "Out For Delivery"...come on, where's my new graphics card, I'm ready 👀

Just back from seeing my parents, sister and Flash pup! Also, kindly been given two chilli plants which I'm gonna try to care for so I don't have to buy chillies from the supermarket for a while! Oddly enough, my mum gave them to me and about a week ago I was thinking how I'd love to grow my own! 😋

Oh God, this might be the absolute worst day for this...it's BUSY; the place is totally flooded with people for a big food market and some sort of classic car thing. It's hot, and everyone around me in town is already getting on my nerves...gonna just get this done and get my ass home again ASAP. 🤦🏻♂️

Had a very kind little surprise from my local Indian restaurant! As part of my order I ordered 2 poppadoms and I got all these! 7 poppadoms I think it was in total in 2 bags, along with the rest of my order (madras curry, rice and onion bhaji with chutneys)...currently unable to move with food 😋

Struggling to find the energy today. It would have been your 40th, and I have no doubt everyone would have been at a gig or festival with you celebrating how we always used to. I am gonna be listening to your favourite songs and watching the fireworks tonight. Miss you every day, my metal brother 💔

Things getting done and feeling good after clearing out broken furniture and Blu-rays from the spare room in preparation for the month-long temporary housemate to move in. Got a whole load of DVDs etc now down in the living room with all the consoles set up so they're not cluttering other places 😀

Nooooo...Sonny is leaving Spurs 😢 Truly one of the legends of the club - I can't quite believe he's going, but what a player and a truly wonderful person. Always had a smile and was such a humble and caring individual who did EVERYTHING to win a trophy with Spurs before he left. Tottenham forever 🤍

Wonderful...I am supposed to have a delivery today of the newest router from my ISP...only problem is they can't tell me when it will be here but "it will be before 9pm"...I guess it's a good thing I wasn't planning on doing anything so I can stay here all day waiting! Not even a 4hr window? Nope. 😐

Imagine saying you've played a game since the day it came out, that you've been RPing in that same game for all that time too, that you played loads of the online mode of that game and yet you still don't know basic stuff like how to fast-travel...and your char is low lvl and has virtually nothing 😆
