A page dedicated to what's going on in my life. Stuff I probably used to tweet about and now ramble in my journal and inside Discord servers.

Inspired by the likes of Stephen Hackett, Robb Knight, and my pal Peter Spezia's old tradition of updating his Twitter banner with the game he was currently playing.

It was my 32nd birthday last Friday. I had a very nice time with my family, feeling loved, and making these killer chicken sandwiches—seriously, they were worth every bit of prep. I also realized that I was given the most video games in 15+ years? I was given Forza Horizon 6, Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection, Persona 3 Reload, and 007 First Light. I even have a promised copy of Star Fox on the way too.

I've been trying very much to be disciplined in my purchases these last few years. It may sound silly in regards to video games, but God is blessing me beyond His abundance in my every day. I didn't ask for nor expect any of these. He takes care of our family's genuine needs every day. This is above and beyond and personal. He does care about you individually and specifically.
The summer E3 video game magic is winding down. I missed every show live this year, which is a bummer because I didn't see them with friends. I had to watch the ASL stream of Summer Game Fest, which was not ideal. Good stuff all around. I long for live demos and more gameplay, but it feels like those days will never come back.
I have barely been able to play Marathon this week and I feel like I am missing out. It's harder to commit the time this past week with so much else going on. And I want to play other things. I started 007 First Light just last night and man oh man it feels refreshing to play a big budget, single-player action adventure game. It feels like I am reclaiming the hobby part of my gaming. Reclaiming it from ambitions and overhead and work and complexity.
My new essay is difficult to write. I have an accountability partner though. I will publish this one.
I am still reading Is A River Alive? and wholeheartedly recommend it. I am nearing the end. It is a majestic book.
I also started the process of trying to migrate my Pokémon from the GBA through the DS and 3DS eras to Pokémon Home. It's a fun project and I marvel at the Pokémon Company's dedication to carryover, support, and longevity.
