Not much

Yo, I have a new keyboard, and it sucks. The old one was wireless and needed its battery changed literally once a month (other than the fact that it was noisy as fuck and awful), so, out of pity, my roommate got me a new one. And it's the. Fucking. Worst. Keyboard. I've ever typed on. I have to press really hard on each key to make the character appear, the space bar makes an awful clicking sound (and the other keys don't??), and, the best part: random stuff happens when I'm just typing! As I was typing this paragraph, the start menu opened up three times already, and the voice control stuff just launched itself (I didn't even know I had one)... ?? What the fuck???????

Other than that... I had a tiresome day. My relationship with my dad isn't the best. The main problem stems from the fact that I'm not a family person. I really like my parents, but I don't feel the need to share with them a strong bond... and I think my dad doesn't understand that. Or if he does, he dislikes it a lot. And in my case, I feel best when I don't see my family too often. For example, since I moved out, I have a much better relationship with my mother. It's not perfect yet, and it probably will never be, but it's immensely more bearable in comparison to the awful yelling that happened when we still lived together (it takes me fucking TONS to get angry, but when you tickle my weak spots every day, you're almost certain to get me blowing up at you right away).
And yeah, it's basically unnerving. I could just give my father a silent treatment and make him understand that I don't necessarly want too much proximity between us. But I really don't want to. Not until I have a job and that I don't depend on my parents anymore. I know how wishy-washy they can be, and I don't want something horrible to happen just because we're on bad terms. Because I know they're capable of not supporting me from one day to the next just because I don't do what they want. And, well, as much as I hate to admit it, I have to comply until I have my own revenue.

In unrelated news, I felt like playing something the other day, stared at my Steam library for a while, and remembered I had bought Limbo a while ago without giving it a try. So I sat on my ass and played it through. It was a pretty nice game! I mean, I liked it enough to go through it again a few times to get all the achievements (one of which being finishing the game with 5 or less deaths in one sitting, and it was quite hard because I awfully suck at plateformers).
I don't know where I'll lay my interest next. I kinda wanna get through with Hotel Dusk, because I actually never saw the end of that game. So I'll probably do that. And go a little further in Morrowind (try the extensions at least).

games, life
