Don't know when I last posted...
Oct. 6th, 2017 01:40 pm I think it's been more than a week...
So, the first news is that I have finally joined the 21st Century and got a smart phone. I'm not a technophobe by any means, but I've never really wanted one. But the SIM on my clamshell type one gave up the ghost and... well, here we are. I'm still on pay as you go. I've ordered a cover, screen protector and a cute charm. New phone = whole new ways to accessorise!
The second is that I really, really want to finish KH1.5 but the end bosses are hard and are forcing me to level *sulky Rosa*
The third is that I'm listening to the FF8 OST and I really, really, REALLY want Square Enix to announce they're doing a remake *extra sulky Rosa*
The fourth is that I've finished watching NieR: Automata. There is so much to process in that game that I really don't know where to start. I understand J saying that he now sees games can be art. Of course, I've always seen them as such but hey. There also isn't really much to say that wouldn't count as a spoiler in some way. Of course, it's gorgeous AND weird in about equal measure. The player I was watching kept saying how much he loved the game but that everything it asked him to do hurt. There are some incredible characters, not just 2B and 9S, who will stay with me for a while. All I can say is play it or watch it. I also understand J saying I should play it - the impact is strong enough from watching but playing... That could be heart-breaking...
And lastly, I have spent far too much time looking at spreadsheets this week but I think I may have an answer (developed during a conversation with my line manager - credit where it's due) to the perennial problem of resource planning.
Well, that's all for now. Toodles DW!
