Work is normally not complete shit, but it certainly is this week. I think the universe knows I'm going on vacation next week and then decided to make this week hell instead of a normal week.
That said, I finished The Expanse (amazing show and I just want more!!!) and I'm hopelessly addicted to Cobalt Core. I've completed about 6 runs now and have one more ship and character to unlock, and then I "only" have to beat it about 20 more times to get all the memory logs. It's a very addicting game!
I'm going to have to find a show or two to occupy me in the next 2 weeks on vacation, though. I like traveling, but I'm skipping it this time to be frugal and I'm just having a staycation. I may drive somewhere for a couple days, but nothing crazy.
I'm also trying to get into the habit of reading more. I don't think I'll ever get to the point of reading double digits books per year (my adhd riddled brain just needs too many vidya games), but I'm trying to at least read a few days a week. That said, with me growing increasingly frustrated with computers (a thing I'm calling ROBS, rapid onset boomer syndrome), maybe I'll get more into reading to get away from screens (I work in software, so I really should be using a screen at home as little as possible).
Just watched a trailer for The Expanse and it looks so good! idk if I can make it thru 6 seasons tho. I'm a serial series abandoner.
As others have said keep going through S1. It sets the scene nicely for bigger things later on. I personally rate it as one of the best things I've ever seen on TV. Certainly the best sci-fi I've ever seen.
Started it yesterday- it's pretty good! Made it thru 3 eps without ever checking to see how much longer it was gonna be.
