Books Reading

• Stranger in a Strange Land – Finally gave this classic a shot. The ideas are wild, sometimes pretentious, but always interesting. A bit long-winded at times, but worth it. ★★★★☆

Games Playing

• Shining Force III: Scenario 1 – Playing this on Saturn. Tactical RPG bliss. Love the pacing, the characters, and the sprite/3D hybrid visuals. It’s everything I like about old-school Sega. ★★★★★

Log

Not a ton of updates this month—just been doing baby stuff. Life’s full and busy in the best way. Diaper changes, late nights, and lots of holding Ezekiel. Angela and I are adjusting to the new rhythm. It’s slower in some ways, faster in others.

Still feel grateful daily. There’s a peace in the little things: making tea in the morning, watching the boys sleep, sneaking in game time late at night.

Trying not to forget to breathe and look up.
