Diary - Aug 24 to Aug 30 2024

Sat Aug 24 2024

Sleep 0700 to 1130 (4-1/2 hours)

  • Gloomhaven. I took the "there must be an alive enemy at the start of every turn" and concentrated on rushing forward to open the two doors in the dungeon. Second door I had to cloak for a couple of turns since I was in there by myself and I'm fairly crunchy.

Sun Aug 25 2024

Sleep 0200 to 0800, 1 hour in car, 1 hour in car (8 hours)

  • We visited mom and dad for the day. I was a bit car sick on the way but mild.
  • Christopher hooked up Dad's Chinese tv box. It has like no setup and I assume it goes to a server and you can choose a Chinese tv channel to watch. Seems a bit sus but I haven't researched it.

Mon Aug 26 2024

Sleep 0400 to 1200 (8 hours)

  • Apple Card info changed so have to update recurring payments. In Wallet you can search by Recurring Bills and see end merchant recurring payments (but it doesn't count PayPal or I suppose other inter-payment mediators so you have to remember those yourself).

Tue Aug 27 2024

Sleep 0630 to 1130, 30 nap (5-1/2 hours)

  • CSr and I visiting mom and dad. New mattresses come tomorrow so CSr wanted to be here just in case.

Wed Aug 28 2024

Sleep 0430 to 0930, 1315 to 1513 (7 hours)

  • We tried to drain mom and dad's water heater but there's enough silt buildup that only a trickle of water comes out the spout. We tried to poke it out but valve curves so couldn't get a good angle on blockage.

Thu Aug 29 2024

Sleep 0300 to 1130 (8-1/2 hours)

  • Bought Mongoose 2300 AD Bundle.

Fri Aug 30 2024

Sleep 0230 to 0830, 45m nap (6-3/4 hours)

  • Warlock Knight KS. This is originally a TFT solo adventure converted to Dungeon Fantasy. I'm thinking $60 (+ shipping) level which is a bit pricey ($20 for PDF, $20 for print, $10 for Foundry VTT module, $10 for quick reference card deck). Then again print level itself is $40 so I'm ok with a bit extra to support the (realistically) only GURPS/DF/TFT 3rd party publisher.
