Had to buy a new bike rear tail light for my spouse. Someone stole hers while she was working her shift at the hospital.

Went a bit nuts for BF this year:
  • RTX 5070
  • MLB The Show 25 for PS5
  • Zelda Echoes of Time for Switch
  • Super Mario Odyssey for Switch
  • Annual BF reup of NordVPN to get around the Texas porn ban and to watch Japanese Netflix
Might not be the end of it as I'm watching my nephew tomorrow and I'm gonna fire up Miles Morales on PC and see if he likes it, as both Miles Morales and Spiderman 2 are on sale for PS5.

Gotta say I'm impressed with the realism of The Show 25. First game I played was Dodgers vs Yankees, had Teoscar Hernandez on third with Tommy Edman at bat with one out so figured I'd live dangerously and do a squeeze play. So bunted towards the first baseman and Gerrit Cole didn't cover the bag then either so got an RBI single on the suicide squeeze when the first baseman had no one to throw to. :tearsofjoy:

Really nailed the Yankees lack of baseball IQ.
That is awesome!! As a Dodger fan I love that!!

BTW, if you ever watch one of those channels on you tube about MLB the show my cousin is Koogs46. He seems to have a big following and makes a good living doing it. Yes this is my closest claim to fame.

Bought 5 Slinky’s for a Toys for Tots drive from Amazon. While there I saw they had a box of 3 in different sizes. Just had to buy it for myself. :)
