Watching Malcolm in the Middle: Life's Still Unfair was great, I'm gonna have to rewatch the whole show. Haven't seen it since it originally ended but I remembered so much of it!

Having my workstation PC develop faulty RAM couldn't have happened at a worse time ๐
If you would allow me to geek out for a moment: The Artemis II moon flyby mission is so fucking cool! I cannot wait to plough through all the photos.
Finally some more info coming ๐
Happy Birthday to me! ๐
I decided not to make my birthday cake and take it easy this time, as I've still not fully recovered from the various illnesses suffered this year. But I will make what I had planned one day ๐
So, Tesco Finest chocolate cake, still very nice ๐
Can the AI bubble burst already? Fuck AI.
I'm not surprised but I'm still very disappointed. I really enjoyed Starfleet Academy despite me dismissing it when it was announced. Turned out for better than expected.
I spoke too soon, almost immediately after I posted this I got an ear infection. Pretty much got over the worst of it now so... hopefully now I can recover and nothing else happens to me. Right?... Right?!!
I've been meaning to get back to it since, especially when Shattered Space released but alas I still haven't. But now with the upcoming content and changes I'm excited again, like I was before the original release. I'm looking forward to returning to it once my PC issues are fixed. (2/2)
As bland as Starfield was, it did have so much potential. For the most part I did enjoy my time with it but it didn't take long for it to become highly repetitive, slow, empty and frustrating with all the loading zones. I spent over 100 hours on it in its first month before stopping. (1/2)
This year has been awful for me so far. It started with an cold, then after a brief respite I suffered terrible toothache for over 3 weeks, then immediately after I got Covid! Honestly it's been extremely frustrating! Hopefully after I recovered from this nothing else rears its ugly head in.
Attempted to cook 'Toad in the Hole' for dinner and failed miserably; black and burnt on the outside, scrambled egg and floppy sausage on the inside. What could go wrong, went wrong ๐
At least the onion gravy was excellent ๐
Decided to watch the outstanding DS9 episode 'In the Pale Moonlight'.
Decided to watch the magnificent TNG episode 'The Pegasus'.
Decided to watch the excellent Voyager episode 'Living Witness'.
Decided to watch the amazing DS9 episode 'Duet'.
Randomly decided to watch the exceptional TNG episode 'The Drumhead'. Seemed relevent.
Wow 6 years already? Season 1 was pretty good if not stupid towards the end. Season 2 was a complete and utter train wreck. Season 3 was like a crescendo with reunions, very fan servicey, so much intrigue with a disappointing ending featuring a predictable and last second foe. Star Trek Legacy when?
๐ 6 YEARS AGO #StarTrekPicard Season One Episode One Premiered!
In "Remembrance", Sir Patrick Stewart officially returned as Jean-Luc Picard. The series would eventually lead to a full reunion of The Next Generation cast in Season 3!
๐ Did you like #StarTrek: Picard?
After watching the deep dive for Fable during the Xbox Developer Direct, I didn't expect to want it as much as I do. If it delivers, it'll be amazing! I've never played the original Fable trilogy, maybe I should give it a go ๐ค
I'm seriously looking forward to Forza Horizon 6! And then 007 First Light a week later? The latter half of May is gonna be great ๐
... except for my wallet, my wallet won't like me.
Bring on 2026! Watch this space ๐
Happy New Year! ๐ฅณ
I have many ideas and many things I want to get done. It's gonna be scary, it's gonna be tough, but I've got to re-establish, reconnect and restart. I know I can do it.
Thank you if you made it this far, I rambled on more than expected ๐ Have a happy new year!
Theres many things I want to focus on, so as for my New Year's Resolution I want to be healthier (I said this last year and even though I made great progress to start, it fell off a cliff for reasons mentioned previously), and I really want to get back to work, get back on track.
But the one thing this year that has been a highlight is that after 11 years together, I proposed (sort of) to my boyfriend. He moved in with me last year so it was long overdue to make it official.
I've sorta been floating around since, it's been odd to say the least. My life doesn't feel quite right. But as time has gone on, I've felt a little more focused and confident and next year I feel like I can get back on track.
Then in July it would be the last time. 92 years is a good long life. I'm so lucky to have had her in my life for as long as I did and I am relieved that she can now finally rest after so long in pain.
You think things last forever, but really they can't. My Nan was tough, fiercely independent and always there. The last 4 years had been hard to experience, seeing someone slowly melt away. Every time she went to hospital she would always come back, beating the odds, but weaker.
Now that I had a bit more freedom I could focus on myself and try to get out of this hole I'd been in for the last handful of years. It started out well but as with anything, it wouldn't be long before I was dragged back into reality, my Nan might not survive for much longer.
