OMG the year has flown by so fast

I got a new mini gaming keyboard and just wanted to type on it.  I'm definitely loving it more than the keyboard from work, which was too big for my home desk and doesn't have that tactile feedback. Couple weeks ago I got a gaming mouse, as well.  It was actually recommended for the work that I get paid to do, but I haven't been doing work at home.

I was hoping to get back to JediMUD and program my gazillion mouse buttons with triggers.  I guess I was too hopeful that the online game I used to play in the 90's would survive 25 years online.  The site is still up, though the link into the game is Error 404 (not found).   Whoa, it's up today!  Didn't work over the weekend.

I think when I get back to editing videos I can make use of the programmable buttons.

Meanwhile, Happy Thanksgiving.  I'm going to hibernate this weekend.  I have a cold and I don't want to get family sick.  Uncle is in his 80's and his wife is almost 90.  I could really use the rest and don't need the 3-hour drive.

Oh, I got the Medicare.  It's absolutely useless as long as I have employer's insurance, but it means there's nothing left to keep me from quitting.  I'm going to hang on to the end of the year to see if leadership have any inkling of integrity or if they're going to find an excuse to stiff me on the bonus they dangled in front of me in June.  Knowing them, they're going to just give it to me as the regular end of year bonus that they would have given me anyway.  They'll either say I didn't make the deadline or they'll say the bonus is the bonus.
