Two surprise deliveries - thx to @YSDC, @StarTrekRachel and @mrchrislackey

Yesterday after work I went to my parents and got a very tasty tiramisu - a feast I get annual around my birthday.

After that I went home and continued to download the games to the PS4 and I finished later that night doing so.

While the PS4 was updating we went onto the couch and continued watching tv shows.

Since I almost forget to mention, I got two packages in the mail yesterday as well: the first one was the Eternal Journal by YSDC, a very cool concept for a role playing journal with removable pages. Thanks for your hard work Paul!


The second package was more of a surprise, but the really nice team of Rachel Watches Star Trek sent me a very cool custom coffee mug. Thank you very much for that Rachel and Chris!

Preparing for launch

After another successful day at work I went home and after dinner started upgrade my PS4 harddisk. Since cloning from the old one didn't work I'm now installing all the games again - savegames have been stored of course - so that when Assassin's Creed Odyssey arrives I'm all set.

Later that evening we went onto the couch as usual and watched tv shows.

Afterwards we went back home to entertain the cats until exhaustion - ours of course not the cat's.

Following that it was once again couch time for us.

Meeting my former colleagues

When I came back home again we watched one episode of a tv show together and then we went to bed.

Yes that's the way it is for @UPS_AT

After yesterday's blogpost I had a long conversation via Twitter with UPS customer support. As expected their final conclusion was "everything done at the customer center was done correctly", which doesn't make me happy at all and lead to me add another complaint to the list, since that's no way a company should treat customers.

After I wasted enough time with this, the remainder of the day was rather successful and I came home rather tired in the evening.

Since my dear was out as well and came home late too, we just went to take a shower and then went straight to bed.

F**k the @UPS_AT

The UPS scavenger hunt continued yesterday and to bring it to an end I went to the airport Schwechat where their customer center is located. It almost work sending that package, but they are still in the stone age and only accepted cash. So I went away again and finally was able to post the package at a package shop in Schwechat city.

UPS is nothing a private person should be using - and they are not interested in changing anything so I will find alternatives the next time I'm forced to rely on a courier service.

At noon we went to lunch with my mother-in-law and friends at Grünspan and together with my dear we had spare ribs.


In the afternoon we went home and I had to lay down to relax a bit before we watched some tv shows in the evening again on the couch.

Some assassins are needed

This sunday my dear went to Alten Donau and I tried to send a package via UPS and completely despaired and will do this another day again.

In the evening I went back to Asssassin's Creed Origin until my dear came back home and we watched some tv shows.

Boardgaming with friends

This saturday we went to friends for a boardgaming afternoon.

We started with the continuation of Charterstone - now we have flying islands for our buildings!


After that we played a new game Darwinning!, which is a trick taking game with the twist that you can evolve your species with one of the cards you played to win a trick. It sounds better in theory than when we played it though.

Then we went down the political incorrect path with Verdammt Nochmal and order events due to their disgusting factor.

The conclusion of the evening was Sagrada and this one is a real gem. Each palyed builds his own version of a church window out of colored dice, which has to be build following some building rules. It was exciting till the end - although very little interaction between the players - and in the end the winner only was one point ahead!


Afterwards we went back home to our cats and entertained them before feeding them as well.

Relaxing end of the week

This friday was another successful day at work and on my way back home a had some sushi at WOKWalk.

Since my dear came home late I played some Assassin's Creed Origin in the meantime.

Rather late we then watched an episode of a tv shows before we went to bed.

The quest for food

Yesterday after work we met with some dear friends for dinner. After some unsuccessful attempts to find a place to eat we ended up a pizzeria and got some great food.

After that we went home where the cats waited for us already. Since it was rather late we didn't watch tv shows this time but entertained the cats before we went to bed.

Carpe diem

This saturday we needed to relax from the previous week. Besides some grocery shopping we stayed home and did nothing too fancy.

Still we did try out a new boardgame - Carpe Diem - and we both enjoyed it very much. For me this is already a contender for this year's Kennerspiel des Jahres. My dear and I had lot of fun building stuff in our roman plot and we both played very different strategies - in the end my dear won mainly because of her massive villa.


In the evening we went onto the couch to watch tv shows and we went to bed rather late as well.

Let the King speak!

Yesterday at work I got visited by dear people. First up were my parents - which I was very happy about - and in the afternoon dear friends came by and we will be meeting more regularly after work for dinner in the upcoming future - which I also am very happy about.

Otherwise it was another successful day, although I dread today a bit, since there are supposed to arrive at least 8 deliveries and that's a lot of boxes to unpack. But I'm confident that we will do this!

In the evening we went onto the couch as usual, but this time we watched The King's Speech, a movie I wanted to see for a long time and it was realy good entertainment.
