The Michael Swayne Story V: King of his Castle

Yesterday was an okay day. It didn't start off that way. I painted that third coat of red onto the bathroom walls, which made my eyes hurt. Carma liked it, saying that it was finally the fire engine red that she was wanting. Why she thought red was a good color for a bathroom is beyond me. I would never have a bathroom that color. I thought it looked better as the primer white I painted. Anyway, now we just wait for the border to arrive, and then we get to put that up.

I finally earned the trophy for picking locks and pockets in Skyrim. And after that was done, I reloaded the save file. I don't like picking pockets. Locks is fine, by being that close to people and not slicing them to shreds feels weird. And it is only a video game. I am slowly reaching the requirements for the other trophies. I don't remember the details, but I am close to clearing the dungeons, and reading the skill books. The Shouts and Dragon Souls are going much slower. Mainly because I am not actively looking for them. If a Wall is in a place I am at, I will go to it; but I am not really searching for them like I should.

I also earned a trophy in Grand Theft Auto IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony. I hit the flag in golf four times and scored the Bronze trophy. I tried do the Fighter's Club trophy, but I died. I read a tip on how to earn it, and I may try again later. I am also trying to earn the singleplayer race trophy in the main game. Right now I have four races won, and I only need 16 more. It isn't too bad. The races are easy enough to win, if I can keep my car from exploding. I can't help it, I just hit way too many things.

I don't really have plans today. I want to save mowing the yard for Friday, to get back on schedule after having done it on Tuesday and Wednesday last week. I have the feeling that now that Joey is up and about, we will be playing Minecraft. Please allow me to find the materials I need to earn the railroad trophy. I think that although I will be in a hole far away from him, I won't be able to escape the bad singing and constant requests to go to sleep. So I guess that's it. I hope to see you around the forums, and until then...

Later!

Michael
