2x4

This past weekend I had my birthday, and it was really nice actually! Friends visited me on Thursday and we had cake and a mini party, and on Saturday my family had an Easter Dinner Party which lead to a second cake for me. There was good times and card games, and for the mini party; virtual mini golf until we hated ourselves and Mario Party until Dyland stopped suffering.

The main floor is also done, at least done to the point my mom wanted it done for the weekend. I'm sure more reno stuff will be coming up again soon. I'm just hoping the weather improves (it snowed on my birthday...) enough so I can borrow the car to maybe run off and visit friends houses again.

Also I did some testing. This paragraph is maybe more suitable for a certain other blog, but I'm letting that blog 'rest' as it were...anyway! I wanted to start up some series of me playing around in MC, I had some unique little takes for ideas that would make things "not just another LP". That said, my computerS are both...saddening. Linux machine doesn't have the CPU to run both recording software and the game. My laptop can run both, but the game runs horribly, and my laptop basically goes on fire. (Idling it runs at 40 Celsius, with the two programs...71 Celsius.)
As my laptop is also my animation station, Skype machine, Game dev machine, Faux 6th console for the TV downstairs, database for RO, and essentially my main work machine... I can't afford to have it go up in flames.

Long story short, if I do youtube, it's gonna have to be animation. Which means youtube is never gonna be a job for me. 

In conclusion, life

PainT

A majority of walls have been painted. Dining room, Kitchen, and the living room are completely done. The front hall is finished on the lower part, but with such a high ceiling, the upper part is gonna be a task.
The main floor bathroom is also half painted.

So much painting has been a grind. My mom is determined to finish all painting by the end of the month. This Saturday is set to be Easter Dinner, so she's been scrambling to get everything done on the main floor for then.
This on top of all her usual appointments and such.

Abbridged version is this month is busy somehow. I also age another year soon, so that's a thing. I dyed my hair blonde for it, despite what others may tell you.


April Snowers

Walls are getting painted. That's the news as of late in my house. We've been trying to make the house look nice as possible. Partly to enjoy it, partly because my mom really wants to downsize.
(There's claimant that she just wants less space to deal with but I sense maybe a boot down the line..)

Soon I'll have easier car access again, as it's becoming bike season. The weather has been stupid as of late though, snowing today because it can. Second winter is such a bother.
Once the car is around more, I should theoretically be able to visit friends more often.
My time is still easily claimed by family though, as the job search continues. I've been doing more research into the industry and its direction itself, since it seems as much as school tried to hint at reality, even it couldn't capture the gravity of what I (and others) are now up against.

Also my april fools joke was a totally legit router. PTE is actually a dog clicker website of the future. I won't explain what that means, because without mystery, what fun would life be? Also adding a new feature from april fools seems somewhat tradition, since the way PTE looks and functions today (and for the past 4 years), the 'stable' design so to speak, is thanks to an april fools prank from 2013.
So there's some trivia for you.*
