If you have to do something...

[GearNoir]

I've come so close to getting this game but never do because I don't have enough time to play something with that sort of world building. It sounds like a fantastic game though.

If you don’t mind the long haul, for the most part it’s pretty easy to pick up and put down as needed. The game auto saves fairly often and there are few “timed” events like this one. Even then you get plenty of time…like this event lasts 2 weeks but I’m getting close to finishing after about 6 hours.

Most of it is exploration and single player storyline. The community aspects are fairly optional.

TGIF!

First day of OTF Hell Week was yesterday. Doozy of a work out. I haven’t burned over 1k calories in a class for a long time! Thankfully the goal is only 4 out of 8 classes…so that’s one down. Next is Saturday morning.

Hell week continued for us today. Not as bad as the first class we did, but still pretty tough. The biggest road block was finding the motivation to do the class at 7:15 this morning instead of 8:30, so puppy Mookie could go to his training class.

Final Hell Week class for me, tonight!

Hell “Week”? Hmm.
7 days = week
2 days = weekend

How hard can two days of exercise be? Not even Full days, we’re talking about a couple of hours here.

Uh-oh.. You just jinxed yourself! Now you'll be up at 4am.

I’ll probably at least half to wake up a few minutes around then to re-quiet the pup.

Thanks Bruce! Hope yours is going well also!

It is, thank you. I had my own personal “Hell Week” to contend with. On Monday, the Steelers were tied at halftime. They won the game in the second half. Tuesday was worse, when the Evil Yankees actually won a game. Happily, they returned to form Wednesday, as the Dodgers embarrassed them in the decrepit confines of that NY stadium. And today I had a 7:40am appointment, for crying out loud! TBH, your “Hell Weekend” pales in comparison. Sorry, my friend, but it’s the truth.

Nice sleep in then another puppy class for the little dude. Nice breakfast out after with the missus. Otherwise usual chores and chill throughout the rest of the day.
