Getting into gear
Jan. 2nd, 2018 08:44 amI've resurrected my personal Trello account (don't want to interfere with my work one) to help with scheduling daily to-do lists. I'm including all the things I want to do in the day, so that means 'breathing meditation' and 'drink 2 cups of green tea' now count as tasks, even though they are (officially) part of my daily routine. As a result, task lists can include over 20 items - but there is something very satisfying about ticking them off.
Yesterday, I made our bedroom as clean and tidy as it's ever been but I am now rather upset by the shoe boxes under the furniture. I do have a shoe rack, so I have added 'sort shoes' to today's to-do list. Of course, I will then have to find somewhere to put the boxes...
Progress has been made in Primal. I have passed the boss that was annoying the crap out of me and am now into the third realm. The really annoying thing about re-doing the boss? I think I only needed 2 Energy Crystals, so my careful hoarding wasn't really necessary. I do think it's the kind of game where my personal playthrough benefits a lot from practice. I have also found that the cheat codes don't work on the PS4 version, which makes me anxious about the final boss.
Getting through the second realm opened up a new 'bonus material' - a 'making of' documentary. It made me realise just how much thought and attention the makers put into the game. The four realms are all very different and the main species of each one has its own culture, as well as appearance and so on. The story is rather linear but there's no real harm in that. I can only recommend it in the strongest terms.
OK, I've just realised that I've forgotten an important thing on today's list - my daily writing practice (no, DW doesn't count) - so I'm off to plug the gap.
Laters, DW!
