....but from looking up some data it's a Flu Variant, effectively determined by the colour of the Sputum which is apparently a green colour when Flu is involved. Of course I have a slight fever, a slight headache and cough congestion. I'm hoping it breaks soon.

.... and still is, but New Zealand was pretty successful in keeping it out until Omicron. The reasoning for NZ keeping it out and slowly lifting restrictions was due to the low ICU beds and competent nursing staff numbers.

Now I got my booster on Thursday. I had a fever Friday afternoon which broke overnight. Saturday night I developed a light cough which was aggravating...

I got into several games but the two of recent note are "No Mans Sky" and "Solasta: Crown of the Magister" Five years after the launch fiasco and constant work by the Devs, NMS has turned into a really good game. Solasta is a very good D&D experience though the COTM campaign isn't truly repeatable, which is a shame. Auckland has been in lockdown for...

Been keeping myself very occupied with gaming. Work, Sleep Eat, Game :D. I have a three quarter coat on order. Waiting for Cyberpunk 2020. Reading and then one of my favourite pieces of dance music came on. So I danced. The piece? "Tears in Rain". It's been too long. Fatigued but pleased.

Last update two months ago....oops? So I've played a lot of AC:Odyssey in the last couple of months. I started three weeks of Holidays a fortnight ago. I've started watching two new streaming services to my media.

So the primary reason for holidays was the CoNZealand (World Scifi Convention). I'd made all of the arrangements to visit Wellington, for eight days, for it in early...

So a week into the L4 Lockdown (about two months ago), my desktop decided it was going to have an issue where it reset every 20-30 minutes. I bought a new motherboard, cpu and ram. I spent five hours on Saturday putting it all back together then a further three hours today fixing the "faults". I finally have a working desktop again (pending successful tests...

"Oh, ahh, whativIbinuptolately? er, ar, I haven't been ignoring youall, honest!" We've been in our L2 lockdown for a fortnight or so now. Essentially back to work with contact tracing. I've been playing Civ6 for lack of better games. watched stuff. Being in an industry which could work in lockdown makes a big difference to what can be done through out that time. Pretty much,...

So NZ went into lockdown on Thursday (well, Wednesday a minute before midnight). I think it's the right thing to do to get the pandemic under control in this country. By isolating everyone in their homes for a month we can severely limit the infections and identify households where it's been caught without needing to track and trace. It's highly disruptive but not as much...

I've spent more time on FB than usual in the last couple of weeks. I researched Covid-19 and made a post about the facts at that point and have started updating weekly. It's not really necessary though since WHO update daily as does the US CDC. It just makes it easier on my friends who don't have the time to keep up-to-date.

Other than that...

Hmmmm.... hadn't been paying attention. So I finished playing the latest chapters of "Breathedge", hit over 1100 hours of Conan Exiles and have started playing The Witcher 3 again, this time on Death-march. I've also bought multiple games under the cost of $NZ20 looking for new/interesting (failing abysmally obviously)

Watched all of "The Expanse" season 3. One of the streaming sites which has been consistently...
