Even last night I was over at my grandad's with my uncle and brother. I was the only one that brought a jacket, and it was only 7 degrees while we were going home.

Temperatures can fluctuate a fair amount in fairness, afternoons are still rather warm. But with the mornings as they are I made the switch to my winter coat at the beginning of the month. I do alternate between wearing a sweater and just a regular two-layered shirt depending on how the day is forecast however.

Yeah it can still get warm at times, though night and morning is definitely gone chilly, and you can feel a chill in the air that just isn't there during summer. It's supposedly 15 degrees out right now over here, but it still feels rather cold.

Congratulations on finally receiving your BGE Collector's Edition! :D
Thanks! :D The funniest thing is that there's no actual disc inside, just a coupon with a key to enter on Ubisoft Connect :lol:
That’s a new one on me, a collector’s edition with just a code to use. I wonder what else came in this Collector’s Edition. :lol:

- I barely got anything done today. Though to be fair I was planning to but then stuff happened.
+ Planning to install some new VMs and test them later tonight.

What VMs are you planning to install?

- I'm running on very little sleep here.
+ I saw a full rainbow this morning.

- At least you got sleep! I on the other hand had no sleep! Though in retrospect, perhaps drinking an entire 2L bottle of diet soda was NOT helpful for this at all. If only I had a mini-fridge in my room... :lol:
+ Maybe now I can go on that walk and feel cold! :D
+ To answer Reese's question, going to try again with installing a Windows 7 VM, and installing 2 Windows XP VMS for the games I'm going to use. Once I've confirmed they all can run this time, I'll delete all the old ones. This could take awhile though.
+ I intend to resume Rayman 3 today too.

I'd almost argue that very little sleep might even be as bad or even worse as not sleeping at all.

- I feel bleh, way too tired (I always feel sick when I don't sleep enough).
+ I should be getting my new SSD during the week.

For you or anyone looking for some nifty filters for modern art software, like GIMP or Photoshop for example, G'MIC is a fun one:

I hope that school work goes well for you, just so you can get it off your mind. :)

+ The cold sore seems to be healing now.
- I still hate that it's there. It just annoys me every time I see it in the mirror.

+++++ It's Chronic and I's birthday! :noelfou: :cookie: :teuf: Can't wait for some cake! We're gonna have ice cream and play Twisted Metal!

+++ Bubsy 4D is going great, got a handle on the rolling gimmick, the Bubsy 3D skin I use got a small update so now it glances up and blinks! No more staring into the void! I seriously cannot wait for the final release!

+++ My Postal 2 Alien Head shirt arrived a few days ago, I love it, it's super comfy and part of my Halloween costume! I've got an errand of my own on Halloween, can't be the Postal 2 Dude without a clipboard. I'm gonna ask the neighborhood what their favorite candy is, and what candy they think is overrated. Could get some interesting results...

Happy birthday to you both, hope the cake is good and your day fun!

- Hit an issue at work and I'm not sure where the problem lies, I don't mind a bit of troubleshooting, but I'm a little braindead at present
- I haven't shaved in a bit and I'm trying not to reach the point where I have to get the trimmer out, so I'll have to get my thumb out of my mouth and shave today...

Can relate : I'm at the point where I can eat my moustache.

++ Finally had an idea for one of the Floktober prompt that left me stumped

Why, you may ask?

"Newly registered domain"???

Don't most schools simply blacklist everything, and only allowed domains are whitelisted?

- Another tired day, but I did technically sleep better.
