Diablo III: Season 28 – Getting Started

A Monk is wearing mostly leather armor. She carries a sword in an upraised hand and a club in her other hand. There is a golden crown on her head. She is wearing butterfly wings on her back. Next to her is a monstrous version of a pug dog.

In this video, I used the “Rebirth to Seasonal” so my Monk could work on the brand new Season 28 of Diablo III. She ran through a Nephalem rift. She also completed some sets of Bounties. This Season added an altar that players can use to give benefits to their character.

Elevation – by Stephen King

The title of the book is "Elevation". The word is floating in the night sky with a colorful burst of color behind it. Tiny letters under that say "a novel" In larger print, towards the bottom of the book, it says "Stephen King"

Scott Carey has a problem. He has discovered that he is losing weight – but not in a way anyone could have predicted. Scott chooses to confide in his friend (and former doctor) Dr. Bob Ellis. Scott Carey asks to be weighed on Dr. Ellis’s scale. Dr. Ellis is retired, but kept his highly accurate scale. The results are alarming!

Diablo III: Finished Chapter III

A Monk is wearing four pieces of a six piece set. It is all in red and gold. She has wings made of orange and yellow light. Next to her is a jade green dragon that is floating in the air.

In this video, my Monk obtained four of the six pieces of the “freebie” set for Monks in Season 27. She completed Chapter III. The next step was to start working on Chapter IV.

Diablo III: A Path To Level 70

In this video, my Monk moved up to Master difficulty in an effort to reach Level 70. She completed a set of Act V bounties, which got her to Level 69. After that, she picked out some Act III bounties in areas that were very likely to have a lot of monsters to kill. It’s a wonky plan – but it got her to Level 70.

Diablo III: Expert Is Not Enough

A Monk is wearing fancy armor in red, brown, gold, and black. She has orange and yellow wings that are made of light. Next to her is a jade green dragon that is floating in the air.

In this video, my Monk was attempting to get to Level 70. She was playing on Expert difficulty and working her way through the last parts of Chapter II of the Season Journey. Unfortunately, Expert difficulty was not enough to get her to Level 70.

This blog post is focused on the COVID-19 protections that the Biden-Harris Administration put in place during January of 2021. I am pulling some this information from a generalized health care post that can be found in the “Out of Spoons” section of Book of Jen. I also included relevant information from (then) Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi.

Covid Is Not “Over”

I am an immunocompromised person who is absolutely terrified about what will happen if the White House chooses to believe that “Covid is over”. Fortunately, The White House has a website where you can contact them and share your opinions/thoughts about specific policies. https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/
