Game Update
Getting to a place where I’m primarily just working through the normalcy of creating levels for the game. I’m getting faster at it which makes sense as I “get more reps in” like Atomic Habits talks about. It’s less exciting than making new features but it’s also more relaxing. The nice thing about it is that it gives me the chance to just chat with my mentor during our weekly sessions.
I don’t expect there will be a lot to report for most of the weeks ahead. I have thought off and on about some of the stories I might tell in the stages. It’s likely it will get pulled from a lot of my own personal experiences over the years. Still pretty judgmental about telling my own stories. It was pointed out to me recently that I am maybe a little to hard on the movies and shows I watch.
Personal Update
I missed last weeks music practice with my kids but we managed to re-organize the area and do a practice this week. Sometimes it can be difficult being a leader. I know that if I fail to step up things won’t “just happen.” I feel like I’m getting a little better about teaching the boys one on one. We have a long way to go. It’s another situation where I am getting my teaching reps in and they are getting their music learning reps in. Still having issues with my second son who gets frustrated easily.
I took some time to play a Magic the Gathering tournament this weekend, which went about as average as it can go. My record ended up being 2-2-1 for the day. I had some of the worst draws that day which was crazy. I’ve never seen so many bad hands, but some nights are your night and some nights are not. Still with all those bad draws I still managed to break even, imagine if I had better hands that day. I was also happy to have picked up 2 cards I had been looking for right before the tournament started. Still working out a lot of the nuances.
Spent some time with my new love interest this week too, which was very nice of course. We had a couple things to work through but nothing to difficult. It’s nice to have finally met someone so stable. It felt like I was going to have a hard time finding anyone with any measure of quality in this area that worked well with who I am. Doing my best to make good decisions while praying that God blesses the relationship.
