In 2022 I wrote the below post to accumulate all the knowledge I learned playing some awesome video games. Hilariously, I often look back at it to remember those tips when it’s been a while since I last picked up one of those games. Continue reading “The Best Video Games I Played In 2023”
December’s theme of “warmth” had two meanings 🙂 . First was the fact that I spent half of the month soaking up the sun in Puerto Vallarta, México where it was literally warm (75F), and the second was that I spent the rest of the month in Upstate NY with family that makes my heart warm…in an emotional way, not a concerning medical condition way 🙂 .
