2019 was a great year of gaming for me, in terms of both the number of games played and finished! Not only was I very satisfied with pretty much all the games I played, but I also got my first two platinum trophies ever! So I thought I’d share my […]
As I work at the university, I have two full weeks off at the end of December/start of January for winter break. Suffice to say, I got LOTS of gaming in! Including my first two fully played games of 2020! Yes, really! The first was Lost Ember! I started this one […]
In a gaming group I’m in on Facebook, we were challenged to pick our one game of the decade. Just one! OMG! Of all the games we’ve played over the last TEN years!? That required me to first figure out what all I’ve acquired AND actually played in the last […]
Weee, time to decide on goals! And boy oh boy was it HARD! I spent three weeks working on these this year, revising, reconsidering, revising again. Partially it’s from lots of uncertainty on some areas, especially the financial situation, what we’re doing exercise-wise, and what the effects of some medical […]
So here is where I’m starting 2020 with my gaming backlog, i.e. games I need to play! This year, I’m still not including any sports, strategy, or play whenever type games like Uno or the like, since there is no actual end to them. I also decided to pull one […]

I wanted to get my 11-year-old border collie Yuki a nice orthopedic bed as she has been having joint issues of late and been very heavily dreaming (and kicking in her sleep), so I thought a nice bed might help with both issues. So I bought her two: a large […]
While I did flip to posting quarterly progress updates, the goals themselves are still yearly goals, so with it being the end of the year, anything not done is a fail. Wee! I’m not going to mark all the fails as usual, though, since it would just clutter this post, […]
At the end of November, I started playing Assassins Creed Brotherhood. This is sort of the third game in the series in that it’s a direct sequel to Assassin’s Creed II (AC2), but it isn’t Assassin’s Creed III, which has a whole new primary character. Kind of like the whole […]
In October, I started playing Yakuza Kiwami on the PS4. I’d been interested in this game series for a few years now, especially after seeing it raved about on the Playstation Access channel a few times by some of the hosts. So of course when it was one of the […]
