My dear daughter, I came across this really good meme today, which is actually a quote, allegedly by Anne Hegerty. She says “People say ‘you suffer from Asperger’s’ – no. I have Asperger’s, I suffer from idiots.” I have to admit, it’s difficult to keep these letters updated during weekends and holidays. But that isContinuar lendo “November 20, 2018”

My dear daughter, I must have started playing World of Warcraft around 2006. I still have the official game box I ordered online from the USA. They were about to release the first major expansion, The Burning Crusade.   I played practically non stop till 2009. During those 2 and a half years I rarely playedContinuar lendo “November 19, 2018”

My dear daughter, Now, computer RPG games are really something.  I must have started with Hugo 2 on our 486 DX2 – 66 MHz, but after that I played older games like NetHack and Aklabeth.  Then I spent hundreds and even thousands of hours playing Eye of The Beholder III, the Aethra Chronicles demo, Baldur’sContinuar lendo “November 18, 2018”

My dear daughter, I was especially addicted to videogame RPGs. I was already very interested in regular RPG themes, and videogame RPGs had even more elements to hijack my brain, like character leveling, huge digital worlds to explore and immersive stories. After the Mega Drive, at one point I had saved a lot of money,Continuar lendo “November 17, 2018”

My dear daughter, When I got a Nintendo NES it was actually a Top Game CCE (from a Brazilian manufacturer). It was nice because it accepted cartridges in the Japanese and American formats. It sucked because you couldn’t remove the controllers, the cables were permanently attached to the console. And they didn’t have the sameContinuar lendo “November 16, 2018”

My dear daughter, I am addicted to videogames. I’ve loved them since early childhood, since before my parents could afford me a console. Before I had an Atari 2600 (actually I had a Supergame CCE, it was the equivalent from a Brazilian manufacturer – it was much cheaper) my father bought me a Teenage MutantContinuar lendo “November 15, 2018”

Dear readers, Good day! I’ve resumed writing in here. It was about time. I had stopped because we had a real tough time in my country in general, specifically until the end of 2022. And I went through some troubled waters with Alice’s mom. We almost got a divorce, but then decided to give itContinuar lendo “January 27, 2025”

My dear daughter, Here’s my top 5 sci-fi movies of all times (at this moment): We are using this top 5 format in honor of the very good movie High Fidelity, by director Stephen Frears, with John Cusack and Jack Black. But the format has become quite popular on Youtube because it seems to be aContinuar lendo “November 14, 2018”

My dear daughter, Yesterday at work there was a talk of having to do something urgent overnight, so I packed my things and went home in a hurry. I learned the lesson from the movie Work Space. Stay out of your boss or manager’s line of sight when there is talk of urgent things approachingContinuar lendo “November 9th, 2018”

My dear daughter, Things were a little crazy at home when we got back from the birthing center with you. During the first 4 days it was just you, me and your mother. Then your grandmother came to stay with us for 3 weeks, and things started getting a little easier. You would cry forContinuar lendo “November 6th, 2018”
