This is more of a moan than an bitch but here goes. I've been playing Fire Pro since G on the PSX. Throughout the years I have taken the wrestlers I create, all original, and carried them over to the different Fire Pro games. I also played other wrestling games throughout this time and any wrestler I created on those other games got a Fire Pro version. So I've amassed a good collection of edits.
One thing I've never done is complete my edits. I would do partial movesets for some of them and never got around to logic or parameters. So I decided to finally buckle down and get every wrestler done, granted there will probably be tweaks and small changes in the future. So I decided to finish at least one wrestler per day thinking it wouldn't take more that a few months to get them all done. But I just went in and counted how many wrestlers I've created... 320. If I do one a day it will take almost a year. I guess it's time to quit whining and get to it. Maybe I can do three a day.

I certainly wish you well in that endeavor. I thought about doing an anthology save on FPR once but it seems like it took me a while just to get 20 or so edits reasonably finished. Then again, I was trying to do them all uniquely and at the same time. There are probably ways to expedite the process judging by some of the saves I saw way back when.

I've said it before and I'll say it every time. I hate it when people roll up at the literal last minute (or just after) for alcohol and then get mad at my refusing them. Not my fault you can't manage time properly.

People are like that. I used to work at a Walmart in the garden center. We would start announcing that we were closing the garden registers and doors half an hour beforehand and two or three times more before they closed. But every night when the announcement was made that the garden was closed people would start running back there to check out. Then they would get mad when we told them to go to the front.

I used to work at a Wal-Mart as well. Closing was at 10 pm. Multiple announcements...entitled Karens of the male and female variety all believing the store closing didn't apply to them.

I guess they're already having issues. I don't really want to know the details beyond "car's damaged." I know it's been a rough year for damn near everybody but this sound more like "dumb people do dumb things all the time." And again, I wasn't there eating ice cream and watching TV instead of "oh sorry, we need this part and not that one" But I'm the asshole. I'm the one who didn't have a "real job "so my opinion and my experience apparently didn't mean shit.

Eh it's been handled, they're going back and taking what's left with them. A rather quick turnaround but again, I have seen this happen so many times I might as well do my best Goldberg "Who's Next?"

Last day of vacation. Go back to work Friday night. The only good thing is that this might be the first year I come back from vacation and don't bring a snow storm with me. Last three years every time I come back from vacation a blizzard hits and now it's a running joke at work for people to expect a snow storm on my return. However, it's basically spring here now. Snow is almost all gone and today it was +13 and sunny. Monday and Tuesday are supposed to be cold again, but other than that no snow or winter weather in the monthly forecast.
And since I'm bitching anyway, my next on call is Saturday night, March 20th unless someone decides they want a little extra cash to get my name off the list. Actually it's not too bad because it's my long weekend off anyway so I'd still have Sunday off if I have to work Saturday night and there's that PS5+TV fund that needs topping off.

I'm trying to buy a new guitar, that may seem simple to most. But no, not during a global pandemic. Estimated delivery time for the one I want, July!

I was hoping for clarity but this week just muddled things further. Two years ago I thought it was going to be "as much as this might go somewhere tonight, I want to spend time with you every night." And yet yesterday was "I know you're still looking. You know I still care. So why all the bullshit?"

Sometimes I wish I wasn't such a sad sack of shit. I'd get more stuff done if I wasn't.
March 16th was the fifth anniversary of my father's passing. The anniversary of Ceese's passing is coming up soon. Another friend's will be coming up shortly before that. This time of year is always miserable for me because I lost several of my personal heroes within a short time of each other. Thankfully I have people like Senator and Geese to keep me in check and I'm eternally grateful for it.
I live in the same house I've lived in for 33 years. My mother passed away on the couch that I now use to pile boxes. I'm moving to the Raleigh, NC area in a few weeks. It'll be the first time I've lived anywhere else in my entire life. I don't really have any friends here anymore - I either lost contact with them or they moved away. I try to think about the good times I've had in the last few years and there haven't really been many. I don't like going out. I live the life of a hermit and I don't lead a particularly inspired life.
Hopefully the move will open a new chapter in my life and I can be "truly" happy for the first time in close to a decade.

I know this is a really difficult time of the year for you.
I really hope that the preparation for the move is going well and that the move goes as smoothly as possible.
You are going through enough right now and a move is f'n hard on its own.
I gotta give you a ton of credit - taking the initiative to start a new chapter in your life at any time is REALLY impressive. Doing it right now, with what you are going through and how the world is, rates beyond impressive.
Right now this world feels like its made of inertia - making any kind of forward progress is really hard. So it takes some balls of steel level fighting spiritu to pick up and move somewhere new to REINVIGORATE YOUR KOC life 😃
You taking the initiative to begin that new chapter tells me you're going to make the most of it 😎
