Jan. 4th, 2017 10:19 amI received a copy of the Kingdom of Loathing card game (Mr. Card Game) over the holidays, and it was immediately pounced upon by several people, so we played it. Fun! And now I have started playing KoL again. And here's the thing: this game hasn't stopped evolving since it started. When I first started playing (in 2006) every Tuesday was new-content-day. It's not quite as regular as that anymore, but there's still a lot of new stuff going on. And every month there's a new premium item you can buy either by donating $10 or by amassing a whole lot of in-game currency, and some of these items are content-unlockers. It's gotten so I need the Wiki open in a tab just to get through a run ... but that's turning out to be okay. It's a good game.
In other news, yesterday at work was ridiculous. I sat in the office and did check-ins for about three hours (the first hour+ was catching up from the weekend), took a lunchbreak, and then did another two hours until the shift-change when coworkerP came in. She looked at the always/already full cart and asked if I wanted to do the check-ins to get away from the desk for a while. Ahahaha no. Please let me sit at the desk.
Today I am going out to lunch with coworkerM, who has been raving about the shrimp tostadas at Tony Sombrero's FOREVER. I guess we'll see about that. And the auto-fill thingy has been replaced so the furnace at the old house shouldn't run out of water which means we don't need to check it quite so obsessively anymore. And it's 36 and rainy which means lots of snow turning into slush so we should get the edges of the driveway cleared while we can. Good times.
I need more coffee.
