Continue reading “Assorted riding.”There is currently a shortage of able-bodied folks at work. Yesterday morning, I was asked whether I was dealing with any injuries.
“Well, I burnt my gums last night. A blister formed and then popped. I can’t stop tonguing it.”

While in Vancouver, I asked Kristen, “Who’s the hottest character in Lord of the Rings?”
“Hmm… good question!”
Is it, though? I can’t even take credit: Zoée initiated it. I answered young Bilbo, but I’d forgotten about Aragorn. I hope that doesn’t mean Jordi will insist on me sitting through his annual LOTR marathon. I like the movies. They’re excellent movies. They’re fucking long, though, and I won’t be ready to commit to 12 hours of watching a stressed-out Frodo chase a ring anytime soon.
Jordi and I are also watching The X-Files. It’s not a show I watched when it was airing. I was a bit too young and alien-phobic when the series started. So far, the episodes are a hit or a miss. The makeup artistry is aggressively bad, except for the 2nd episode of the 2nd season. The show’s budget went towards their top-notch stunt drivers. Were Mulder’s collection of neckties intentionally ugly? I don’t know, but the truth is out there.
My latest accomplishment in Breath of the Wild is slaying my first Lynel. I was rewarded with a sweet bow that fires three arrows at once and hooves. So that I can make glue? No, to trade with one of the moaning fairies who’ll upgrade an item of clothing.
This is my latest real-life accomplishment…

This was to take place at Vancouver Community College, and I’d been looking for an excuse to visit the mainland. I didn’t realize that the date was right before the long weekend when everybody’s hyped about crossing the Strait of Georgia to get to the island or vice versa. Good Friday enthusiasts are no good.
Alright, I’ll leave before the long weekend ferry rush. Still, travelling to the ferry terminal right after work didn’t float my boat, and it’d been a while since I’d taken the seaplane. That was the plan until a co-worker pointed out Helijet was having a sale: $137. I’d never been in a helicopter!
Continue reading “Forget Jebus.”A couple of days ago, I got ripped off by a married woman who was flirting with me. She wanted me to light the four torches around the goddess statue in Kakariko Village. She promised a reward.
As the torches stuck out of the water, I lit them using four fire arrows. My reward? 20 rupees. Each fire arrow costs 20 rupees!
But that was a few days ago. Since then, I’ve found and purchased multiple bomb, fire, electric, and ice arrows. I have bonded with three horses: Seacookie, Apples, and Bonbon. I’ve only owned the game for two weeks, and already I’ve played 70 hours, courtesy of COVID.
