In 2024, my musical personality is apparently "lullaby playlists to put the babies to sleep".
I swear I'm into other things! I also played the LoFi Girl Synthwave playlist while I work.
And that's pretty much it.

Went out kayaking for the first time in two years. Babies in daycare, my partner has the afternoon off. Perfect.
Being freelance to have more time for myself was really the best decision I could make.
Back to work tomorrow, those games aren't gonna translate themselves.

And I spent my first year here being absolutely absent!
It's gonna be different now. The other place has really become unbearable.

If an enemy in a game has an attack animation and isn't poisonous or toxic or whatever, I shouldn't take damage just for touching it.

What's your "no one but me remembers" game?
Obsidian, a surreal, science-fiction Myst-like.

Just got home yesterday from 2 weeks on the road with 3-month old twins. We drove almost 2,000 km from Québec to Blanc-Sablon, through 3 provinces, including a 7-hour long ferry and a 90-minute long ferry.
Our babies now see their actual home for the first time.
And I'm back to work in 2 weeks.
