stormdogThe longer the trip, the more delay a headwind introduces. I'm grateful to be able to leave home early without being anxious about wasted time thanks to a manager who doesn't really care if we clock in early as long as we're there for the right amount of time and there's shift overlap.
I left before dawn and the sun rose on the way, as usual. Now, though, it's almost as dark outside as when I left. Heavy rain and clouds are darkening the outside world, though it seems to be moving on. I'm glad I missed it. I don't mind as much biking through rain on the way home 'cause I can towel off and change. Being soaked when arriving at work is more annoying, mostly because of soggy shoes and dripping hair.
Danae and I have started playing Assassin's Creed: Origins. So far there doesn't seem to be much integration with the wider storyline of the games and the main character is not interesting to me. He's a big, tough, sweaty, beardy, gruff fighter-dude. He's not nearly as interesting to me as the less stereotypical protagonists in the other six games we've gone through (AC 1, 2 [parts 1, 2 and 3], 3, and 4 [Black Flag]. The fighting system seems pretty boring so far too, in comparison to the other games. Oh well; maybe it'll get better.
(Though to be fair, the protagonist of Black Flag was quite the asshole for most of the game and I didn't like him that much either. But he wasn't boring.)
