My new gaming mouse arrived today! I already had a gaming mouse from the same company (Razer) but it wasn't the one I really wanted. It had just been released so it was almost close to $200 so I went with one that was about $80. It was nice but it wasn't Chroma RBG enhanced like the one I really wanted. Then this past Christmas Eve the mouse I wanted went on price by almost 50% off...so I ordered it. Now to just get used to using it.

It doesn't have the same range of RBG options as my keyboard and headphones, it's better than just glowing green like the previous mouse. AND it has three different removable side panels that I can switch between depending on what I'm doing - two different gaming panels and one regular panel.

One big difference between regular computer mice and gaming mice is the response speed. I think it goes without saying that gaming mice are more responsive which is what you need for many games on the market these days. Yes, you can use regular mice for gaming, but if you're a PC gamer geek like me you want something more responsive. Especially when paired with a gaming computer. Yes, I have a gaming laptop that is currently paired with a gaming monitor due in a very large part to the fact that my laptop monitor is cracked and the replacement part is so far on backorder that I have a feeling that I'll have replaced the laptop with a gaming desktop before I can get my hands on the replacement monitor.

I had gotten my gaming laptop during the original 2020 lockdown and then got the gaming headset not long after. Then the gaming keyboard came about to make using my laptop easier at my desk, and then along came the first gaming mouse. This was before the laptop screen got cracked. Then I got a Chromebook for carrying around for writing purposes.

Then depression hit really badly and I couldn't even get at my desk to use my gaming set up. It was bad. It's still not great, but at least now I can use my gaming set up. I still have my chrome book set up on the desk for random things, but I've also got most of my writing stuff set up to be worked on from any device that can access my Microsoft account. It's all good in the end.

Right now I've got some tunes playing as I type up this blog entry, and went my head stops spinning and my stomach settles down I will go back to playing a game. Not sure which one yet. I've just got the Witcher series of games, several Star Wars games, and so much more. I guess we'll see what I'm in the mood for when I stop sweating half to death.

Which reminds me, I need to remember to call off of work tomorrow later tonight. I've maintained since we closed down on Friday (I was the lucky one who got to go in and cancel all the appointments for that day...woo?) that if I felt like utter shit when we were due to reopen after New Years that I would likely call out of work for at least a day or two. I'm hoping that it's not the latest COVID variant, especially because I've had issues with severe sweats and lightheadedness for a very long time. Bleh.

So, I've been verbally given a three month eviction notice due to my landlord wanting to renovate the apartment I've been living in for almost 12 years. And he's made it clear that he will not entertain the idea of me coming back once the renovations are done. Yes, the place needs some work - I've been here for 12 years so wear and tear are only natural. Of course, the day he needed into the apartment was a day where the place was a state. I'd just worked my last day of a string of five days in a row and housework needed to be done. Five days worth of dishes in the sink, garbage that was in the process of being collected to put out on garbage day, and laundry that was in the process of being washed, dried, folded, and put away. Plus stuff on the floor because I'd been going through my collection of doom bags and boxes so I could get rid of more things I don't need or have room for. It clearly wasn't putting the best look out there for my landlord to see,...

So, I didn't get everything out of the basement common area by the end of October. I got a LOT of it out, but there still remains some items that desperately need to go. I just haven't had the spoons to do it yet. Such is life when your health, mental and physical, decide to have other ideas. Obviously, I'm still working away at it all, and making progress too! A week ago, during my last two days off from work, I finally put together the free shelving thingy I got from Temu and started putting things on it. Talk about a huge difference from having things all over the counter! Organization of my kettle, various water bottles and travel mugs, spices, cereal, and other things have been accomplished and I have actual working space on the counter now. Given the space and time (and another shelving thingy at some point) I'll hopefully be able to turn the top of my mini-fridge into a coffee station and get rid of the two milk-crates I'm currently using to hold canned goods...

Ex got his ass fired on Valentine's Day...what a loser

-
The ex no longer has a job - he was termed on Valentine's Day. I can only wonder exactly what goes through a person's head to continue to do the same stupid thing repeatedly. Clearly he's not all that bright if it means that he has yet to learn a lesson out of all of this. But I also think he tends to think he'll always get bailed out whenever he screws up like he apparently always does. When he told me that he always loses his jobs the same way, I thought maybe he felt guilty about it all and wanted to make a change. Obviously not. Whenever I eat in the food court at the mall I work in I keep expecting his mother to approach me to ask what happened. Or to give me shit for not making her son a priority. Frankly, I'd love her to try giving me shit because I'd tell her - mother to mother - that she raised a selfish idiot who refuses to learn from his mistakes or is just too stupid to figure out that how he chooses to go on is no way to live. What is he goi...
