So here I am on Saturday morning typing up what usually is a Friday blog because I got lazy on Friday. Actually I started the blog but then I got caught up in other important business (I went to pick up some Mexican Food for breakfast) and then went about my day without updating you good people. Anyways let’s get started.

So I just got back from Costco because I figured if I get there when it opens, I can breeze in an out with ease. Well me and apparently everyone else had the same idea but at least the little tasting stations weren’t setup yet so the grazers didn’t get a chance to leave their carts in the middle of the aisle. We are at the point in the year when you can tell who the locals are and who is from Canada. It was 69° degrees outside and the locals were dressed like it was snowing. The good people from Canada: shorts and a t-shirt. I was wearing a hockey jersey because it is cool enough to wear one outside. Anyways’s while I’m eating my fries let’s catch up with what I have been playing.

Good morning Pixlpeeps! It is a cool Saturday morning here in sunny Southern California, and I am currently taking a break from Christmas music to catch up on podcasts that I didn’t get to listen to over the past week. Why? Well more on that in a bit, but here I am, a day late, a buck short (there was a problem with my pay so I have to wait a bit, but no big deal), and well at least it is Saturday right? Let’s get started.

Good morning Pixlpeeps! I had a blog all ready to go on Friday but I scrapped it because I didn’t like it. I was going to do another on Saturday but didn’t so here we are. Instead of what I was playing, I will just do my Quick Hits because you don’t want to read about my exploits on NCAA Football 14 (Season 4 of the Duke Blue Devils and they are ranked #12 with a 4-0 record, and beating #8 Miami on a last second two point conversion), or how I got some PC games running including GTA V (I was running around with zero wanted level causing mayhem), so this QH will be all about voting! I’m kidding, and let’s be real we have all had enough of the constant ads, unwanted texts, and Chris trolling calls so instead let’s check out what Chris has been doing non gaming wise this week.

I just got off the phone with a scam caller and apparently when you ask them “Who Hurt You” they get really angry. It was met with an F You, and a hang up, but at least I got a laugh out of it. Good morning Pixlpeeps! Does trolling scam callers count as playing a game?

Yesterday I had a Quick Hits blog all typed up and ready to go, and I was in the middle of editing my photos when Photoshop was starting to act funny. It was starting to act up over the past couple of weeks but nothing too terrible but all of a sudden it was becoming almost impossible to use because of long load times. I then tried Illustrator and the same thing. I spent the next hour or so trying to figure out what was going on and then the major issue happened: Bridge refused to close. It was frustrating and this point I was ready to just call it a day and buy a new laptop. I was so frustrated and ready to go that I was basically almost out the door until I figured why not, and then I went back to the computer to try one more thing: re-install Windows. The last ditch effort.

Good morning Pixlpeeps! I am back outside typing away and I have to admit that I do like this setup especially in the morning. I have tunes, fresh air, my little loud iPad keyboard and the iPad. Can’t go wrong. Yesterday I had plans to play and continue to go through NFS Payback but things got in the way and well we’ll go over that in a bit. Let’s get started.

Well good morning Pixlpeeps! I thought for today I would try a different setup and instead of using the travel laptop I would go with the good old iPad and Bluetooth keyboard.

Well good morning Pixlpeeps! This is currently the third version of this entry because each of the previous two times I’ve tried to write this, I get to the end and I either lose interest or I didn’t like it, so here we are. It is a really nice 64° degrees outside so I took the travel laptop outside

Well hello Friday and thank you for sticking with the trend of below normal temperatures. It is really nice to be able to keep the windows open past noon especially for the last couple of months it has been all about the air conditioning. Anyways on Wednesday I wrote about my experiences at my garage sale and it continues but later on in this rambling piece I like to call Quick Hits. Today is mostly about the random things I bought over the past couple of weeks, and if that doesn’t interest you, we’re still good and I’ll see you on Monday when I complain about whatever game I’m playing. For everyone else let’s get started because it’s Friday, and I kinda want an ice coffee and donut, and the closest thing that offers both is Dunkin so I’ll be there after I finish here.
