So... Uh... Hi

Good morning, Readers!

I would like to apologise for my absence.  I was on holidays for the past week and a bit, and completely neglected to schedule posts for while I was away.  I just didn't think about it.  I'm sorry.

And, if I'm honest, I was a little busy adventuring to worry about it.  I took a portal to another world, became a wood elf, and discovered that I had dragon blood.  Now I must use what talents this blood gives me to save the world.  And this world is a mess, let me tell you.

There's a bloody civil conflict happening between those who wish to live independently, and the empire, which struggling to keep the whole thing from collapsing on itself.  Behind all the conflict, I suspect, is the Aldmeri Dominion; a bunch of high elves who deserve a good thrashing, if you ask me.  And then, if that wasn't bad enough, dragons are returning, killing people indiscriminately.  These bastards are scary AF.

Not as scary as trolls, though, I have discovered.  Those suckers are tough and very aggressive.  And they have about as many eyes as some spiders, so there's that.

For those of you who haven't guessed, I was busy playing Skyrim.  I am poor (boo-hoo, right?) and couldn't actually afford to go anywhere for my holidays.  I could afford, however, Skyrim on the PS4.  It was on sale, and since streaming on the PS4 is so much easier than via the system I have set up for my Xbox 360, I decided I would get it.

And so, I holidayed in the stunning virtual world that is Skyrim.  I've done well for myself there, I should note.  I am a thane in two holds, I have two homes (one of which I built myself), and adopted a lovely little girl called Lucia.  I can "adventurer" better than I can adult, apparently.

Anyway, I've been loving it.  I streamed almost every day I was on holidays, and it was great.  It's my first day back at the usual grind, and I already miss Skyrim.  Now, instead of playing every day, I'll only be able to play on the Saturday afternoons my schedule allows.

I am undecided about whether or not I should transfer these streams to YouTube.  Twitch only has each stream up for a fortnight, so they'll be lost if I don't.  Also, I'm not sure if I should start a Patreon or some kind of tipping service for my streams and use continued access to the streams as a perk or something.  I don't expect to make any money, but the potential is there.  Just some things I'm tossing around in my skull right now.

But I should stop here.  I've been away for a while now, and there is a lot of administrative catching up to do, as well as getting back to Welsh lessons.  So, I'll leave you here, and continue to pine for Skyrim as I get back to real life.

​Ciao!
