So this shouldn’t take too terribly long.

I decided to get a replacement chair rather than attempting to have the chair that… broke get fixed, especially because I don’t want to run the risk of it breaking again or something happening while my son (Bub) is sitting on the chair. Apparently that will be here in a few days. In the meantime, I’m using a spare kitchen table chair to have something to sit in until that arrives and can be put together. Someone that I know in person thinks that they can actually fix the chair that broke, but I’m not going to bank on that given how it broke and be out a computer chair when I can be proactive, purchase one now and have it arrive at the house in a few days, and at worst only have one computer chair for us to use (rather than none of them).

I’m also thinking of getting another MMO for Bub since he seems to like them so much. I’ve been researching.

Another one bites the dust… well, again.

The gaming chair that I got us several months ago broke for the second time this morning when the shaft that goes into the wheel well actually… bent for some strange reason. I am still not sure what caused that.

The first time, a single wheel-well broke. You know, one of the things that contains the wheels? Part of that broke. I was able to replace that, finding compatible parts for that online… but if it comes to continually fixing this chair, and spending more money fixing this chair than I would spend getting a comparable, new one, I know exactly what I am going to do. Plus, I don’t want to have to figure out the hard way if this chair is going to break down again or in a worse way. As it was, the second break in the chair made it so that the chair could not support itself with no one sitting in it. One of the perks of Amazon Prime, along with the video selection that we now have, is going to be this chair put on two-day tap. I definitely do not mind this, heh.

I have a shirt that has our gamer tag on it!

I tried to get a good picture of it, and this was the best that I could get. I absolutely love this. It’s one of those baseball shirts. When gaming with Bub, we just use his nickname (“Bub”) as our gamer tag, especially because that’s one more way to avoid using his real name or the kids’ real names in public spaces online.

We now have a gaming and streaming desk!

Even though our washer… continues not to work as it should (and the decision is soon going to have to be made whether to try to replace individual parts in the hope that we’re able to figure out, and replace, what caused it to stop working, or just get a completely different one), our gaming and streaming desk is now put together. All I have to do is reorganize the wires at the back of the desk a bit better than they are and I think I’ve got everything on it that I need to have on it, let alone satisfactorily. And then there’s the more minor issue of making sure that the desktop is completely loaded, because although it is still impressively fast it won’t load the most recent version of Windows on it, and there are certain things that I’ve been able to get this one to do or load onto this one when it ran the previous version of Windows that… wait for it, that one gives me grief on, even though they are roughly comparable. I suppose I’ll find out the majority of it later…

Knowing us, in the interim we’ll probably have to buy a new washer though. This thing seems like it’s kaput.
