Loftie

In an attempt create better sleeping habits, I decided to nix my phone before I climb into bed. But this created a big problem, since my phone is my alarm clock. So this past holiday season, I asked for a fancy alarm clock called Loftie.

Vampire Survivors

Cat (a human) and I have been playing this game called Vampire Survivors for the past week or so. Effectively, all you do in the game is move; everything else is done for you. Your job is to pick up experience, gather weapons/items, and orient yourself around enemies in such a way that your weapons will hit them before getting hit yourself. I could hand the controller to my mom, and she would get the gist within a few minutes.

Pelo is so Meta

It’s time to admit something: I’m part of the Peloton cult. I’d like to say I was ahead of the curve (but behind on the stock surge). I bought a used bike just as COVID started to keep us indoors. I’d been interested in Peloton for a while but couldn’t justify it with a gym membership. And then my gym closed, alongside several others in the city, and I found myself outside a shuttered Crossfit, wheeling the red dream into my car. The rest is history.
