i’m slowly adjusting to this new-old life. it feels strange, but also good, to finally slow down. no constant noise, no endless scroll. just me, the bike rides, the modem song, and a blinking cursor waiting for words.

today i thought about starting a new save in Caesar III, but that Diablo installation cd is staring at me from the desk. i haven’t forgotten about Pokémon Yellow either — tomorrow i’ll take my haunter for a walk through the last gym.

i’m trying not to get anxious about the coming week. there are still a few days before classes begin, so tomorrow is for testing my new mono black Magic deck and maybe watching a movie.

the Age of Empires LAN absolutely needs to happen again… but i should probably rest from cheetos until then.
