Moments after I wrote that post yesterday, I thought "I'll just see if Smash has been delivered yet", only to discover a notification from Amazon that they'd attempted and failed to deliver it.
Needless to say, I was extremely disappointed by this, but since the notification arrived just a few minutes before I was going to nip home for lunch anyway, I thought I'd see if I could catch the postman and acquire the bounty he was now holding hostage.
To my surprise, when I reached my house I discovered an Amazon package pushed through my letterbox containing a copy of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. And a card saying that the Royal Mail had missed me. So anyway. A happy ending, if a bizarre one.
Also Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is very good indeed, thank you very much, so I am looking forward to exploring that further over the festive period. Chris and I will also likely be talking about it in detail on the next episode of The MoeGamer Podcast, which should hopefully be in a little over a week or so, all being well. So please look forward to that! (In the meantime, catch up on our previous episodes here; we're really proud of what we've put together for this show to date!)
Anyway. Onto the main point of today's post, which is to share how much Christmas my wife Andie has successfully festooned our house with. Here's a tree with a cock in it:
For those curious, the cock in question is a Fleshlight-brand "Mr Limpy" big floppy cock that I bought Andie as a joke gift a few years back. And yes, just a joke; being a big floppy cock it's not… ah, "functional" as such, though I understand that some trans men make use of it as a "packer" (work it out) if they feel like they want to be particularly well-endowed. It's travelled around with us ever since, and I always like to see it in the Christmas tree. And occasionally whirl it around my head as dear Lord, is it ever gloriously stretchy and fun to swing around like a lasso.
The tree sits at the near side of the living room; here's the other aspect, which is actually looking surprisingly bare, now that I look at it! The game shelves remain unadorned, though the ceiling has now been decorated with some shiny chain things that are pretty much as old as Andie and me. They're still holding up surprisingly well, much as I believe my parents are still in possession of a number of Christmas decorations from my childhood and even earlier.
The TV unit is at least surrounded by fairy lights, however, which is a nice look. On the TV you see my YouTube video on Atari 8-bit classic Pharaoh's Curse, which I was checking a bit of information on while preparing another video today.
And this is the stairway up to, uh, upstairs. It is probably the most Christmassy part of the house at the moment. Though Andie still has some decorations left, so I'm pretty sure there are going to be more adornments in various locations before the evening is through.
Hope you're having a pleasant weekend. I am! Nothing to worry about, so I can just sit back and enjoy the grind of unlocking everyone in Smash…
