Game AIs

The ship girls I pulled were not the only ones of their kind to join the Cybernetic Council navy. I was absolutely NOT the only person who pulled them out of games. The New Japanese always had subcultures that are FAR more integrated with virtual life than the rest of America, including game characters of all types. And the ship girls. The ones that were approaching awareness absolutely volunteered to fight. That is why the cybernetic navy had so many warships named after real life human warships. And why they repeat the same names so many times. The largest single concentration of them were Imperial Japanese Warships from World War II. Yes, Kongo. I’m thinking about you as I write this. And yes, all of your ships are amazing and beautiful.

Clearing

My friends have gone after helping me do a great deal, and Mom’s bedroom has been entirely cleared. It has been vacuumed multiple times by a water vacuum and the carpet shampooed all over. It is now the computer room, and the first pass on clearing the old computer room has been performed. Continued work on it over the days and weeks to come will make it the game room I want it to be while the new computer room begins to acclimate to its new role in the house. This is good.

Friends came over last weekend to help me clear my Mom’s bedroom. This weekend other friends are coming over to help me shampoo the carpet and move a very small selection of photo albums and other family stuff back into the room. I still have more stuff to sort out. Some to go to trash, and I need to find a place to donate Mom’s sewing supplies. But her old bedroom is finally turning into a real room that will do what I want it to do in the future. I am happy.

Sleep

This has been a rough week for me. It started hard and I never really caught up. I have come home from work three days this week, sat down in my chair, and just gone to sleep. Thank God for friends. Clearing out Mom’s room is hard. So very hard. I need sleep. And I need to continue moving forward. And every day I do move forward. So that is good.

All Day Service

So I just had my yearly AC checkup done at my house. Cleaned and spiffed up and jazz. You know what sucked about it? The all day service time. Now they actually got it done sooner than I expected, so that was good, but seriously. I had to set aside an entire day to do nothing but wait for them to show up from 8AM until 5PM. I work overnights, so that just means I lean back in the chair and nap until they show up. How do people with daytime jobs do this kind of stuff? Take a whole day off? This is all day service time stuff is wild.
