The devil is in the pudding.
The devil is in the pudding.
I played some solo PUBG for a while and made it up to second place, then had dinner and waited for the rest of the guys to get on. Josh, Keno, Clint, and I played several games, but I ended the evening by carrying the corpses of my teammates to victory in my very first ever last-man-standing chicken dinner. I guess the solo games are paying off.
Summer made burritos for dinner, and we discovered how much of a pro-rito-roller I really am. I think I’ve found my true calling.
When fade into darkness, the light will keep strong and bright until itself dies.
Summer brought all the kids over to start watching the Marvel movies, and we started with the first Iron Man. I had planned to watch The Incredible Hulk as well, but the kids wanted to play Drawful instead. We did that, then started some other Steam games until we settled on BattleBlock Theater. It was pretty fun, and worked fine to tire everyone out. We’ll continue our movie binge tomorrow.
Smoked butter?
It was my turn at Oakland for their second day of testing today. I had a couple things to do there, so it wasn’t a complete bust. Plus I like spending time with my girls in the office. Sheri bought a huge pot of chili from the Wesley Foundation, but hardly anyone donated, so I had lunch there to do my part. It was pretty good chili, but she had a ton to take home with her.
I made it back to the shop for the very last part of the day, but didn’t get any farther than that. I headed home after work and tried to clean up a little before the weekend. Bác Vân called with eggrolls, and I visited with her for a bit before the girls came by and completely demolished them.
After they left, I played a double in PUBG with Jack, and we both made it out alive with our chicken dinner. Then we played a squad game with Josh and Adam and won that one as well, making for back-to-back chickey chickey din dins. Our third game was sort of close, but I blame the loss of our fourth game entirely on Adam, because he did the exact opposite of every single thing I said.
Is this thing even on???
The cats woke everyone up this morning. It was a lazy day of cold pizza, The Jackbox Party Pack, and Life of Pi. It really is an incredible movie.
I took everyone home after dark and hung out there for a little while before heading back home so I could get back to the slow grind at work in the morning.
My life is all games.
This morning was productive for me. Gary babysat me while I played around in some of our network switches, and I think most of what I was doing stuck with me. At least I should have log files if I get lost in the future.
After work, I went to my parents’ house for lunch. Dad had taken Mom some food for her lunch break and got back home just after I finished my taco salad. I got my Walkera Runner 250 spinning, but it was too cold to be outside flying. I managed to call a cat from across the yard while I was inside the dining room, impressive to the point that I felt like maybe I’ve missed a personal calling somewhere. Nowhere useful, but a calling nonetheless.
From there, I went to Summer’s and crushed them in a flip-floppy game of Monopoly. We picked up some Whatta-Burger for dinner, then I finished the evening dead last in a game of Sorry. Bác Vân called and offered eggrolls, so I took some to share with Becky, then came home for some PUBG with Josh, Clint, and Aaron. I even contributed.

I woke up early this afternoon super hungry, so I went to my parents’ house to find some leftovers. I had forgotten they had to go back to work today, but Julie and Andy were there with a surprise replacement of the garage overhead lights. I stuffed a couple rolls with ham and turkey down my gullet, then came back home to play some Overwatch and shower.
Once my parents got home from work, I went and had dinner, then went to Summer’s to play a game of Monopoly. Nothing makes me happier than extinguishing that tiny glimmering light of hope in someone’s eyes as they make their way around the gauntlet. I don’t think I’ve ever laughed as maniacally as Summer though, as she left us all cold and desperate in the wake of her Trumpian victory.
Now the trick is to fall asleep as quickly as possible so I can go to work in the morning.
