Time for an update!? I think so!
Hey Everybody, sorry for my long hiatus. To give you an idea of what's been going on the last few months:
February 9th: Received the keys to our new home! My fiancé and I sold our house in November of 2021 and closed in January 2022. We finally got the keys after a lease-back on the 9th.
February 10th: Laid off from my job. Yes, you read that right. The day after I got the keys to my new house (which I purchased through the 'tech-driven' real estate company I was employed by) myself, along with 70% of the technology team, were laid off. This sucked and meant I had to start a job hunt immediately and also take a lot of the work that we were going to do to the house and put it on my plate. This ended up being a blessing in disguise as I landed a new job which is a 30% bump, but house work took up a LOT of time.
Feb 11th - Now: We got moved in, finally finished unpacking our last boxes, and I've been training like crazy with my new job. They are a great company that has taken me on for my DevOps experience and has said "take the time you need to learn TypeScript." It's been busy!
As far as arcades go:
1. I'm still waiting on the Yaton cab. I'm sure it's in transit somewhere, but I heard James is not feeling well based on some other posts around here. I hope he's doing ok! That explains his absence.
2. Once Horacio finishes the other cab I purchased I will head out to CA to pick it up. Hopefully it'll fit in the back of our Jeep Cherokee!
3. I received some arcade stools on March 10th from Arcade Shock. So far they are great, but I haven't sat in them very long since I don't have any cabs yet. I'll make sure to report back when I have more time in them!
4. I received a second MiSTerCade from
@misteraddons. It's working great and I'll be making some updates to the MiSTerCade Mount/Brace I designed. He did a great job with the bottom plate that reduces the flex on the board, so my changes will be small and printing/using it will be purely for aesthetics.
Thanks for stopping by!
