So I did it.

 I didn’t say a thing about anything to anyone about last week’s “post”.  And while I still get angered at the idea behind the audacity, the sad thing is - this person really doesn’t even know what they’ve done.  And if they do, they don’t care.  They either haven’t the foggiest of clues, or tested to see how things would be handled, especially since this person is going to be in very close proximity in the near future.  I guess I passed.  For the sack of my own anyway.  They want to live on drama - have at it.  I’m not going to be the one to feed it to them.

  

If you want change you have to start with yourself.  The world is too mean and hateful as it is currently and if I go off spouting my displeasure at a stupid facebook post, how is that going to change anything?  Do I feel better about it?  Maybe marginally.  But it doesn’t fix the main issue that when fed the drama that individual can be quite over the top - and maybe that’s what they were looking for.  Nope.  Sorry.  I’m just going to talk about you, behind your back in a cryptic post on a blog that no one knows exists.  And if you’re reading this do you really think it’s about you?  And if you do, do you know the definition of a Narcissist?  Yea, get over yourself!

How do you handle the insecure people in your life?

 I keep telling myself I shouldn’t let it bother me… I keep telling myself I shouldn’t let it bother me.  I saw something today, just mere 4 days after I posted something - they also posted something, to the exact same tune.  I don’t understand people, hence my loathing for people and - after 20 something years… for one of the first times, I said nothing to anyone to would react to it.  Meaning I did complain to someone, but this person just let me bitch about it.  They didn’t react or inform anyone in their life.  Just let me vent.  And while I can see how desperately stupid they now look, me keeping quiet on the whole thing I guess just let’s everyone know I’m unphased by their antics.

In other news… we’ll be leaving here in a few weeks to go on vacation.  I have decided to boot up the backup IPad I have and take that - complete with an Apple Pencil (1st gen) and keyboard so it’ll be just like a laptop, allow me to draw, digital journal, update anything any anything else whilst keeping my IPad Air here, safe and sound.  This Ipad while older - does a good job and is still getting updates so its not obsolete yet.  So I’ll be taking that.

I just wish I knew how to handle insecure people better.  Maybe in a way, I know and realize my own insecurities, but I don’t go around doing something just because somebody else did it.  And maybe it wouldn’t bother me so much but right after I said something… you have to do it too?  Seriously?  

So can you??

 

I'll be traveling next month for about a week.  I've been streaming some of my gameplay and using a monitor while either playing on the Switch or the PS5.  I thought about taking my iPad, just simply for its artistic usage - but I'm already taking my beloved Switch.  Should something happen... I don't want to lose all my toys.

I was curious though, I have a Chromebook I barely use - (the iPad replaced it.)  I would be ok with that, plus it allows for any need for net searching, email, and creative outlet - and God forbid if something happens, I can do things like genealogy and other things.  But, as it turns out, I can hook up my equipment via the video capture card, to the Chromebook!  P.S.  Nintendo Switch Online is offering a "trial" play of Cadence of Hyrule.  May 1st-7th.  You beat it, you got to do so for free!  Nintendo occasionally has these open trials of games, I wish they would do so more often.

Now granted, the screen isn't very big, and it would mean packing my whole switch, not just the un-docked form... but something to think about AND options available should something be needed on my personal monitors.
