What a great sleep! Pretty much passed right out as soon as my head hit the pillow. Made myself some cereal, cut up an apple, poured some OJ, and once the coffee was made I filled up a mug and took a sip. It was pretty gross. Don’t know if it’s the grinds or if the make hasn’t been cleaned in a while, but I still had two cups to drink after this. Well, I made it, gotta power my way through it.
Surfing the net, I discover that they have remastered the game Myst, one of my favourite puzzle computer games from when I was a kid. Absolutely loved it! I bought it and started downloading instantly. I find another game called Deponia. A point-and-click adventure game. Looked exciting so I bought that and began downloading it as well.
I finished up breakfast, watched a bit of Adventure Time, and after a few episodes I got up and got ready for my day. Gathering up my things that I wanted to send home, I leave the shack at 10 and start making my way to town towards the post office. Yesterday I found some trails that I wanted to check out today, so while adventuring them, I found out that taking this route, it’s only a quick 5-minute walk into town!
Eventually, finding the post office, I go in and start chatting with the employees there. Packed up a box, wrote down my address, and shipped it off. Leaving the building, I start exploring the town some more. I venture down to the coast line in hopes of finding some seals. No dice. Ah well, there’s always tomorrow. Very nice rocky beaches though! Venturing around, my tummy starts growling. Must be almost one. Looking at my watch, I’m not far off. Time to trek back up hill. Once getting back to the shack and inside, I take a look at my downloads. They have finished! I open my web browser while eating leftovers, I start watching some videos then it just stopped. I refreshed the page but it didn’t work. Further investigating into the matter, I find out that my connection has dropped. Restarting the computer, I find out that it’s still down. Well, darn. At least my games finished downloading. Grabbing some more left overs, I watch Judge Dredd. Not too bad of a movie!
With food consumed, I hit the trails, seeing where they go. Most either circle around themselves or go into town. But there was this one that I found that would take me up the mountains, but a rather sizeable river was cutting it off from me. Ice had formed over it but was far too thin to support me. Hoping that it’ll be thicker by tomorrow, I head back.
Getting inside, to my dismay, the internet is still down. I begin installing Myst, pulling out the rest of my left overs, I being playing at 5:00. The sun sets, clear night sky, I go out every now and then in hopes to see the Northern Lights. 10:00 rolls around, still no lights, I walk back inside defeated. Shut down my computer, get ready for bed, I start reading my book.
Tomorrow I’ll scale the mountain.
