What Video Game Did I Play Yesterday?

Peggle (XBox Series S)

January 24th, 2024

Last night, I was so tired that I voluntairly only played two levels of Peggle. Since I'm taking a way earlier start today than usual, today won't likely be better.

Last night, my apartment maintenance people were doing snowblowing at midnight, which resulted in me going "oh, one more level is fine!" over and over again in Peggle. I'm well into the second half of Adventure Mode now, and might not play tonight, just in an effort to avoid another late night from a lapse of judgement. It was really fun, though, and it's not like I was going to get to sleep that fast anyway.

Since the Fantasy Fair event officially ended in Fashion Dreamer yesterday, I turned that on to check for info on the next event. I played with the character and outfit creators for longer than I'd intended, but this, too, was enjoyable.

I'm really sleepy, so I don't know how much I'll play past what I already have tonight. With more rounds of snow ahead and a three day weekend in the mix, though, I'll make up for today's lost time handily.

Today's post is late because I overslept and didn't want to rush with anything when I did get up. The snowstorm in my area meant I didn't have to go into the office today, so I had a fairly relaxing day and am enjoying some slow cooked lentil and potato curry for dinner. It's nice, and there's no office day tomorrow, either, so I shall continue to enjoy cozy clothes and nice food.

Last night's gaming was pretty laid back, too. I turned on my XBox to pick a Game Pass game to beat for the month and got all sparkly eyed at the sight of Peggle. I already played it years ago, off of a CD-Rom, but it's really fun and satisfying, so I'm playing it again! I only meant to play a couple levels last night but buzzed through ten before getting up off of the floor occurred to me. I've been itching to turn it back on all day.

Before bed, I played a little more of About An Elf to unwind, too. I'm fighting many ghosts in a kitchen now, which is very spooky, and some of the silly poems the game popped up on the screen made me laugh out loud. It was fun!

Tonight, I'm honestly more interested in crocheting a tiny dinosaur than gaming, but I'll see how things go.
