Played a truly epic game of Outer Rim with the family yesterday. Took us all day, and involved intense Sabbac competitions, snarky battles between players and the elimination of Hera Syndulla by Jyn Erso for the win.

And yes, we played with the Skyrim game mat.

Monday night soccer. At least tomorrow is a public holiday.

I had my first big setback on BTTR over the weekend. Amazon decided to close my Associates account. There were a couple of reasons given. The first was that my links weren’t clear, which I disagree with and am not sure what they meant. The second was that they saw purchases from family, … read more

Love having to explain what a vasectomy is to the kids after watching an episode of Malcolm in the Middle together…

Really loved watching the finale for The Mandalorian. Lots of questions about where things are going from here, but it was everything I hoped for from Star Wars. 📺

Took the kids to play some laser tag today. It’s one of the few things we do that’s just for dad and the kids.

Good to know I’ve still got it - I was the yellow team and the kids were the blue team 😂🎯🔫

Can’t watch this now without thinking about Racacoonie. Still good though.

Finished reading: The Great Hunt by Robert Jordan 📚

Somewhere in here is a good story. But there are so many points where I just shrugged to myself and thought, “WTF is going on?”

And so, it is that at 5pm on Wednesday afternoon I pick myself up, dust myself off, and try to remember the week that was. School holidays really take it out of me. Even though the kids typically take care of themselves for the most part, finding motivation for anything is tough. But, all things … read more

Definitely weaker than the original. Admittedly it was a tough act to follow, but this just seemed to be missing a lot for me.

I can’t even begin to express how excited I am for Ahsoka.

This was great. Love how they made fun of the genre. Great characters, well acted. A lot of fun.

Another disappointment in the Disney list. The early 2000s really were full of duds for the big D.

This week’s has already been one of those weeks that obliterate the previous week from your memory. Overall, search performance is growing nicely. I love the achievements Google gives you, and watching those little trophies come in every few days warms my heart. Here’s what my clicks from … read more

This week has been a roller coaster. The highs are great! The heart is pumping, I’m excited, things are going well.

But the lows? The lows suck. I suck. Everything sucks.

Overall though, it’s just exhausting.

In the city for a media event for the first time in what… 4 years? 5 years? That makes me feel quite old.

I think this is it. This is the worst Disney movie I have seen. Never again.

It’s better than the second one. At least it has a bit of a story, though it’s fairly predictable.

Ugh. This movie is so boring. It’s a silly plot and a ridiculous premise for a sequel.

How is it that teenagers know exactly what buttons to push? What should have been a fun night of Star Wars has descended into everyone being upset. Ugh.
