I transferred my saved data and user account over to Tommy’s Switch, though I haven’t had time to play yet. The process was surprisingly easy—Nintendo makes transferring data between Switch consoles pretty simple. On a related note, there’s some buzz that Final Fantasy XIV might be coming to the Nintendo Switch 2. Square Enix and…

Computer woes
I forgot to charge my headphones earlier, so they’re plugged in now while I sip on some coffee at my desk. I’m working from my laptop today because my UPS battery needs to be replaced—it keeps shutting off, which in turn shuts off my computer. I use the UPS as my computer’s surge protector. Since…
Power outages
It’s officially planner season! All the planner companies are rolling out their 2026 editions as if 2025 is ancient history. If you didn’t get organized this year—don’t worry—2026 is coming. Meanwhile, I’m still writing “2024” on things and am supposed to start planning for a year that barely feels real. At this rate, “2030 Planners”…
Trip reflection
I took my fake nails off today, trimmed and buffed them, rubbed in some vitamin E oil, and coated them in Vaseline. They look a little healthier, but I know it’ll take a few weeks before my nail beds actually feel strong again. As much as I liked having fake nails, they became harder to…
Day 11 and 12, and delayed flights
When I got home, I jumped back into my usual routine—laundry, cleaning, and sorting out appointments. Once I finished unpacking and organizing, I decided to take a quick break and share more about my trip. Last time, I left off at Day 10. Day 11 – Stonehenge and Salisbury Cathedral We started Day 11 with…
Day 10 – Sea day
On Day 10, we enjoyed another relaxing day at sea. We have a few more excursions ahead before we head home on Wednesday. While I’ve thoroughly enjoyed this vacation, I’m starting to feel ready to return home. I miss the kids and our pets, and I find myself longing for my usual routine. I’ve definitely…
Day 9 – Blarney Castle
On Day 9, we found ourselves in Cobh, Ireland, where we explored Cork and the enchanting Blarney Castle. Nestled in Blarney Village, approximately 8 km (about 5 miles) from Cork, this small castle is complemented by a stunning garden. The ascent to the top is narrow and winding, but the experience culminates in the chance…
Day 8 – At sea
Day 8 is a sea day. Today it’s Kel’s 50th birthday. Tomorrow, we will arrive in Cork, Ireland, where we plan to visit Blarney Castle. I woke up around 7:30 a.m. and met my friends for breakfast at 9:00 a.m. I enjoyed pancakes and scrambled eggs. After breakfast, Tommy and I headed to the theater…
Day 7 – Giant’s Causeway and Titanic
On Day 7, we began our journey in Belfast, boarding our tour bus around 9 AM after enjoying breakfast. Our first destination was Dunluce Castle. Although we couldn’t get too close, we managed to capture a few photos of the stunning ruins. Dunluce Castle, located in Northern Ireland, served as the filming location for Pyke…
Day 5 and 6: Stirling Castle and Liverpool
We arrived at our room a bit early this evening, feeling quite tired from all the walking we did today. Our destination was Liverpool, which I will elaborate on later. Yesterday, we visited Greenock, Falkirk, and Stirling in Scotland. Day 5 began with breakfast, and if I recall correctly, I had scrambled eggs and toast….
