Cutting Edge

The best looking cutting board around, a Dad creation.

Fireball

Pyre didn't look like my kind of game but it was the third outing of indy studio Supergiant Games, who made Bastion and Transistor, both of which I really enjoyed. I took a chance and it was a good one, I liked the sports style game play and the story was interesting. The soundtrack was excellent as always.

Succulent Successors

Having given them a week to scab, I have potted six cuttings. Here's hoping at least one turns out healthy.

Sandis Surgery

The only way to cure root rot is to pull the plant and cut out the area of the roots that are infected, then chop off any infected limbs about an inch below the last infected spot using a blade cleaned with alcohol (a dirty blade can spread the disease.) Unfortunately when I pulled Sandis out his entire root ball was mush. So I took all the good, clean limbs I could find and will do everything I can to make sure Sandis lives on. The cuttings need to dry for a few days so the cut part scabs over, then they will be dipped in root starter and planted. Time will tell, hopefully the rot didn't reach these bits.

Sick Sandis

Sandis has been falling apart lately, whittling down his once robust size to this. When we'd find a piece the inside was all black and mushy, leading us to the conclusion he's got root rot. It's a disease caused by water mould and can be fatal.

Silly Kicks

Finished Bayonetta this evening. This was a huge hit on the last generation Nintendo system, but I'd given up on consoles by then so never got to play it. They recently ported it to PC and it had gotten such hype I tried it out. I just couldn't get into it, the plot was just silly and poorly conveyed to me. Eventually I stopped trying to do everything and just plowed through to the end to finish it.

WOTM

Somehow I don't think this month will be as exiting as the last one. But you never know.
