Sunday evening when I ran out of booze, I gave a second thought to the whole dry January idea. Sure it was already Jan. 4th, but whatever. Going dry for 27/31 days would still be quite the achievement. Also it was after 6pm and liquor stores closer early on Sundays I was doing quite well this week but when I got home from work today my darling wife said she'd but me a bottle of wine. She's real nice like that It would be inappropriate to say no, right? I gotta be a good husband here. So my first crack at dry January has ended after 4 days. Maybe I'll see if I can double that the next time I run out What are you trying and failing at so far in 2021?

Yeah the first episode of Kemono Jihen was pretty good. It had an almost cinematic quality to it. I especially liked the feel/atmosphere of the first half of the episode. The second half of the episode got a little darker than I was anticipating. Hopefully the series doesn't get too heavy like that. I'm adding it to my queue and will keep up with it at least a couple more weeks to see how it goes.

Not made any resolutions as such, but I had been saying for weeks that I wanted to set up OBS over the Christmas break in order to stream retro games in the new year. Christmas came and went and I didn't do it. I pencilled it into my diary for every day since, then shifted it to the next, then the next, then the next. Anyway, finally sorted it out yesterday so feelsgoodman. But January is usually a write-off for me. New Year resolutions start in Feb/March.

My wife has had some struggles with alcohol and she stopped drinking around February - March last year. I haven't had anything to drink since about then too because continuing to drink is really a dick move and doesn't help support her. I do miss having a cooking beer. I guess it isn't that bad since I didn't really drink that much to begin with. I don't judge anyone on their choice to drink. After not doing it for a while you can start to see how ingrained it is in our culture and that is kind of shocking.
