I have to say that there aren't a whole lot of polite words to describe the last couple of boss fights in that game. The level design isn't that great so I had to constantly pause the game to go watch a YouTube play through of the game to see where I was supposed to go next. There aren't any quest markers or objective lists or heck the majority of the time there aren't even any other characters that tell you what is going on. I'm all for environmental story telling. There are better ways to tell a player what's going on other than a narrator exposition dumping on you. But there is nothing telling you what you're do...

I was able to record a video before work. And I spent a lot of the evening after work editing it. So a lot of the mental energy went into that. It's not a lot of editing to do it's just getting rid of the “um's and uh's” throughout the video. My videos are really just me talking to the camera. I should be able to upload it tomorrow before work if not then it'll be up after work.

I was eager to try to get that video done because I had received an email from Patreon saying that since my account had been idle for so long it is about to be “unpublished” I have yet to get anybody to sign up for my Patreon and I doubt that I ever will, but it definitely won't go anywhere if I don't start doing the videos like I want to be doing.

Trying to think of anything to talk about from work. But it was a pretty standard day. I did work a little bit of everything around the front end. Carryout, to cashier, to service desk, to supervisor, to Self Checkout. I did a little bit of everything today and I'm pretty sure that tomorrow is the same way. I did talk to Assistant Customer Service Manager about my hours next week as I was adding the days up and it looks like next week I'll only have 34.5 hours. She said that was probably because the Customer Service Manager had scheduled herself two half days because corporate wants it so that either the Customer Service Manager or the Backup Customer Service Manager are working each day. I told her that makes sense to have at least one department head there each day, but I don't know why I'd be cut almost five hours for the week because she was working two half days. Assistant Customer Service Manager said that she'd talk to CSM to see what's going on and there might be a way to have me get 38.75 hours next week. I guess that would work, but I really want to know why I'm not getting the 40 hours that I'm supposed to get as a full time associate. I guess the excuse that they're trying avoid overtime works when they're scheduling me for 39 hours, but that kind of falls flat when they're scheduling me for less than 35 hours and some of the part time people are getting 38 hours.

It was odd that on Tuesday Roommate said that his weekly appointment was moved to today, but he didn't get up before I had to get to work so I didn't know what I was going to come home from lunch to. If he was going to be upset that I didn't take him to his appointment or if he was going to be home or if he took the city bus or what. But he was home when I came home for lunch and he didn't say anything to me. In fact he didn't say anything to me when I came home for the evening either.

I baked a pork loin for myself for dinner. He didn't say anything to me while it baked or while I ate. He did gripe at the dog for walking around while I was cooking and eating. And he did grumble under his breath, presumably about the smell. 

Hey I just realized that tomorrow is the first day of Spring. So yay, presumably, no more winter! (that presumably doing a lot of heavy lifting. As it is Kansas after all.)
