Must be okay with dying

 I don't like losing when playing video games. Roguelikes and Roguelites tell me that death is okay and often necessary to advance. So I started playing 'Hades' the other day. Died to the boss of Tartarus after a particularly lucky run today. I need to be okay with dying. Of course, personally I am okay with dying in the real world.

 Dying in a video game is another story. Death ain't game over anymore. Currently watching a dude slaughter his way through 'Quake II'. I'm also watching another dude get very lucky with 'Hades'. Once I've made admirable progress with the first game, I'll get the sequel. So, it's the last week of April.

 Mom's final tax filing is done. My sister and brother-in-law cleaned out the basement storage room. Without a doubt, they did an incredible job. The weather's been cool but nice. I did something incredibly juvenile this past Friday. Just was not thinking. I might mention that impossibly stupid thing I did in another post. But for now...

BYE.
