Still enjoying it. They've done a bang up job of translating the novel so far. I must say that if I hadn't read the book I'd be a little lost as to where it's coming from, where it is and where it's going.
Work has been straight forward. Went on a one-day communications course. Filled out a leadership profile for it. It placed me as...

Weighed myself for the first time in a couple of months. Last time I was 86+ now I'm 83+. I think it's because I reduced my evening meals a couple of months ago by a quarter, which worked. The fact that I carry a heavy laptop to and from work and very heavy groceries homes probably helps too :).
So I've been working on Ribbons and Toolbars for the CAD system of the secondment. One need was for the capability to switch between thesystems of the Home Companies and the Joint Venture. I gave up yesterday but was looking into alternatives when I found the perfect code to achieve the need late this morningand I got it into the system and working by mid-afternoon....

Both DLC's and pretty much every quest, Blood and Wine was spectacular. Will go back to Conan Exiles but I'm considering having another crack at Pillar of Eternity or finishing Pathfinder:Kingmaker or Divinity:OS. Had a new desk delivered today which I've put the desktop computer on using the old computer table for the Laptop. Bought leg thermals, socks and two shirts plus a medium weight...

So it appears I'm good at herding cats, though obviously it's more likely they weren't cats after all :). The issues for which I was seconded are under control at the place I was seconded to.
One of my friends invited me onto a Private Server for Conan:Exiles and I've been playing it in the mornings. Still working away at Witcher3 Blood and Wine. Developing...

So I finished the Hearts of Stone DLC for Witcher 3 yesterday. I might have finished it sooner but I spent four hours of dying over several days dying an average of every five minutes in a single fight ("Iris' Greatest Fear"). The win in that battle came as a surprise. I've started the Blood and Wine DLC and the landscape in it is soooo...

So I've been seconded to work a couple of days a week at a new Joint Venture. My best guess of my role is CAD/12D Systems Analysis and Integration. It'll be annoying to me because I'll have to travel into the CBD where I normally walk to work. The work itself is likely to be like the title of this post.
So I only started watching two new anime in the new season "Midnight Occult Civil Servants" and "Wise Mans Grandchild". I'm really enjoying WMG which is another "In Another World" anime. Watched all of "The Good Place" up to date.
Because I've been watching a youtube channel "Gopher Plays" I got the itch to play Witcher 3 again so Conan: Exiles is only being played...

Or to be more precise I was hoping for a pleasant Easter Weekend, but my head disagreed. I had a Runny Nose and Cough on Thursday which morphed into a headache on Friday and Saturday. I was recovering on Saturday but the headache was worse because I wasn't "feeling" cold but it was making the headache worse *sigh*. I didn't play Conan much I mostly...

So I admit to a guilty pleasure "The Hotel Breakfast Buffet". which I hardly ever indulge, due to not staying in hotels. Only .... my local supermarket have started selling hot breakfasts and it's clearly cooked in the same style as The Hotel Breakfast Buffet. I needed the scrambled eggs, bacon and mini-sausages! I did, I tell you! I did! (The fact that I'd already...

Worst weekend I've had in a while. Yesterday I woke with a headache which stayed with me all day. Today it added nausea, light sensitivity and swimming eyes (basically involuntary eye movements from side to side, similar to goldfish tails while swimming). I didn't really recover enough to become active until 4PM. I've finally finished most of my chores but that doesn't leave me much...

Held the first of a regular weekly Drafting Training Meeting. Went well, I think. Made a booking with a carsharing site but the vehicle was sideswiped prior to my usage and the booking had to be cancelled. Have finished four books since the previous post.
