I'm on Goodreads too: https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/11936499-john .
I'm also going to try and spend less on games. I want to focus in on the ones I most want to play and not stray from that.
Sounds fun. I wish I could stick to one series. I'm thinking about playing the Borderlands games again, but that won't stop me from playing others too.
Mostly I feel expendable. I don't expect that much from such a low skilled job as I have, but it's gotten to the point where I feel too controlled. I blame computer systems for making managers micromanage every little thing to make the numbers work. I'm a human being, not a machine, and I don't take orders from machines. Pretty soon, though, that's exactly how it's going to be. Management is going to be computers and they'll tell you what and when to do your job. It's funny, because lately I've been thinking that I'm just like a drone, and then I get one for Xmas. Coincidence? I think not.
Oh cool. I'll check that out.
I know I won't be level 70 when I finish the last Act on Hardcore (also XBO) and have considered raising the difficulty to grind the final levels, but I tried it with a previous character (now dead) on Master difficulty before and was fine until I got surrounded in a narrow dungeon and watched my health bar go to zero faster than I had time to react. The game can surprise you when you least expect it.
Well, they had a very good run. Six games. I just watched the last episode of the TV show. It was the best one. It left a lot of questions to be answered. I hope a second season happens.
I surely will.
I'll do that tomorrow. Thanks.
I just saw Blaster-Tron via a soul stone preview in the game. I'll buy that when I see it.
My year was fine until about September, then everything went to hell. Well, I'm surviving, but only just.
I got similar job frustrations right now. Just about all the decision making process has been taken out of my work, so that I feel more like a robot or drone than anything. What's killing me is the boredom. I don't know how long I can stand it. I used to enjoy work too. Not anymore. Just drudgery and boredom. So I gotta make changes, somehow, someway.
