Trying to save money, so every time I get the impulse to buy oblivion, I beat another boss in elden ring.

There was a time when I was so excited to try every new board game I could. I've gotten so kermudgenly lately. How can I just be cool and enjoy learning and playing new, bad games again?

As a grown man, I don't feel my feelings as much as I should, but I know if I ever need a good cry I have the adventure time episode where they watch the ice king's vhs tapes at the ready.

That feeling of being mildly excited about finding a relatively unknown board game that's just pretty good. Y'know, not great, but pretty good. Like, not a hidden gem but maybe a hidden rose quartz.

This coming year, I'm going to try and not get caught up in the same negative cycles. I'm going to try and have a measured reaction to the news. I'm going to aim to be one step closer to feeling whole.
