A draft from the other night:
I'm watching Big Top Pee-wee in honor of Paul Reubens. It's not nearly as watchable as Pee-wee's Big Adventure, but it's a comfort movie for me, and hey it's free to watch (Amazon Prime).
Paul Reubens... What a loss. Like many other folks my age, I grew up watching Pee-wee - especially Pee-wee's Playhouse. He had a big impact on me. He was like a light in a dark world. It may sound corny, but it's absolutely true.
I actually made a Pee-wee Herman character the last time I was playing around with The Sims 4. It was kinda funny, hehe... For the record, I found I actually hate Sims 4, and much prefer the earlier versions of the game! Maybe I should play Sims 1 again, or maybe Sims 2...
Speaking of gaming, I finally got my copy of Animal Crossing: New Leaf to work again! I actually bought another copy of it just the other day! But I finally tried a factory reset on my 2DS and now it works! I'd been thinking it was a faulty cartridge the whole time, don't know why I didn't think to reset it!
I'm almost a year into making my town, Toot!
Also been having fun with some even older video games, but that's for another time! GTG |

I forgot to mention Steve Mackey's passing (3/2). He was my favorite bass player, so I feel like I should at least make note of his death... I guess I don't really have much to say about it after all, but it's very sad. He was 56.
I knew he wasn't going to be doing the Pulp reunion tour, and that bummed me out, but damn... He's gone forever. It's really sinking in as I sit here, listening to his grooves on This is Hardcore. He was so fucking good. |
