Left my job early in the year, took some time off, then started community college that summer. It was a rough summer but I got into a routine at least, if not into gainful employment. That fall I started part-time at a local library while schooling. It's my favorite place on earth. Here are some of my favorite media from that year. 

I played a few sims today, even The Sims today. And some others. 

A rather ugly year for me as my work changed management and made me feel totally unimportant. I managed to hang in there that year, but everyone else I had worked with for 8 years left, to be replaced by people I didn't know. Very stressful and not fun. But these bits of media below were fun. Check 'em out. 

Played a few, bought a few. Here they are. 

Yes, I'm didn't play anything over a month old today. 

This is the year I got into the Toys-To-Life games. I believe it was the vehicle designs for the Skylanders Superchargers that got me interested and then Gamestop's sales right after the holidays. This lead to Disney Infinity, then Lego Dimensions, Amiibo, and finally Skylink: Battle for Atlas. The genre is sort of in limbo right now, but I hope it returns. But I experienced more than just games. Here are five favorites from that year. 

I mostly played on PS4 today trying to get through my physical game collection so I can sell off anything I'm not totally thrilled about. But, I managed a little Xbox One play too. 

My first task today was to clear as many of the games set up for Quests to earn Game Pass Rewards. I touched on a few others for other reasons. 

The year my car tried to kill me. 200K miles and the exhaust manifold started leaking, not that I knew it for almost a year, and gave me a slight, but significant, dose of carbon monoxide poisoning. I don't think I lost any memory (friends might say otherwise) but I had some muscle-weakening problems that haven't totally gone away. I survived though.

Weird that I even have a weekend. I think I live in a strange alternate reality. I don't think it's real. . . yet.
