One thing that has definitely been working for me is do a small body weight circuit every hour on the hour from 8am to 5pm. It gets my blood pumping, it gives me natural breaks in activities ranging from working from home to watching hours of TV. Another one that I can take to the bank is limiting my phone time. I…

I have waved “hi” more to people on my walks recently, which has had mixed reactions. Most people ignore me, but the few who look up usually smile and wave back, although that’s kind a classic NW attitude thing. There’s a middle aged couple I am friends with in my building who I still talk to regularly, and I have…

Still trying to finish Death Stranding before I start on Control, but man is it a test of my will power. I really like Death Stranding, especially in these later stages of the game, but I can’t wait to dive into Control. It just looks so cool!

The game, by design and keeping with theme, becomes more and more cathartic the more structures you build and the easier you make deliveries for yourself. I agree the first area is kind of a drag but, once you really build up the second area and get the necessary tools, I have been having some very emotionally…

I have always liked the idea of podcasts, but since my commute is so short (even shorter these days...Ha) I don’t have a specific time to listen to them. Thanks for all the suggestions everyone!

Anyone know how to get out of the Grey Comments? I feel like I have been stuck here for months now..

My partner and I live in a small two bedroom (650-70 sq ft), and my biggest gripe is that the kitchen is tiny, similar to your apartment Riley. We also utilize a counter-top and pantry units to expand the space and make it workable. I am thankful for the second bedroom these days. No visitors to speak of, but I have…

Oh no, I wish you a speedy recovery!

Normally the tidying of the apartment is at a 2 day per week cycle, but I am up to 4+ days a week. With my hair getting long, my partner’s hair getting longer, the two cats, and all of us being around 24/7, there is sooo much hair all the time everywhere.

The good news this morning was that my coworker’s son was showing C19 symptoms recently, but the test came back negative over the weekend. No one else I know has been showing symptoms either, including my family in CA and IL, so that’s good news! It appears, for the time being, that WA’s concerted and early efforts…

I am still trying to get my speedy grades up in Death Stranding, (Those are rookie numbers, we gotta pump those numbers up!) and am working on the road to MK City. I imagine I will get promoted to Episode 6 once I make the first delivery there. I still love zooming around but am slowly feeling ready to push forward to…

That’s great to hear! I have been pretty excited to play it for a while but kept missing when it went on sale. I love horror set to office or ultra-modern backdrops, so I expect to like this game’s atmosphere at the very least. I have been re-watching Westworld and, while I don’t like the show much more than my first…

I have mostly just been texting with my friends to stay in touch, which has had mixed results. We had one successful streaming party last Friday, and it would be nice to have another one. My partner has had multiple streaming Happy Hours and I may attend a virtual HH with some of my co-workers today after work ends.

I have limited my news reading to the morning when I have coffee, so I can stay informed but not stress about stuff all day. It has been relatively working, so I would recommend it.

Same status, working from home, no one I know has been diagnosed yet, so that’s good. WA State seems to have been able to flatten the curve to a certain extent with Inslee’s actions (still no help from the Federal Gov weeks after the first case in WA).

We finally got the “Stay at Home” order in WA. I had been going into the office once a week for the past two weeks, but that is done now. All work from home all the time.

I bought Resident Evil 2 for pretty cheap, so I will probably crack into that this weekend. I have only every played RE7, which I liked quite a bit. I imagine this game is not similar at all, but I am one of the few that kind of liked The Evil Within 2, so I expect to like RE2 as well because they seem more similar. I…

Question for everyone: I tried PS Now recently for the one week because I wanted to play Horizon Dawn to see if it was good as I remember from when I rented it for a weekend when it first came out. However, the graphics were not as good as I remember. Have graphics just advanced more quickly that I can register, or is…

Day 5 of working from home. The cooped up feelings come and go, but I am still allowed to leave my apartment for walks. I expect the Shelter in Place order to come any day now in WA.

In terms of distractions, I just finished Deathstroke #2 from the DC Universe Rebirth and got a bunch of free Black Panther comics from…

I am working from home 4/5 days a week right now in the Seattle area. My partner just got laid off from all her jobs with Inslee’s announcement on Sunday, so she is filing for unemployment and other assistance but won’t really be able to look for jobs in her field as she was a bartender and yoga instructor. Thankfully…
