Event Log: 4/30/14 - Living In Wind

I feel like I've sufficiently aired my grievances in other avenues (Tumblr, Twitter, email) about my zombie state of mind stemming from hurricane force winds knocking on my door and preventing sleep so I won't belabor the frustration of being constantly awakened in the morning after staying up all night.

That said, I think I may have leveled up a couple notches in XCOM. I'm starting to pick up strategies and preferred play styles that not only satisfys my low tolerance for failure, but also keeps my reloads to a minimum. Imagine that. Spending more time doing something makes me better at doing it! It's an absurdly basic principle but one easily forgotten by beginners.

It was windy and extremely hot. This entire week has been hell. Summer has arrived early. My motivation wanes with rising temperatures. The hotter it gets, the more I'm sapped. I do feel like I'm nearing the end in XCOM. I captured the highest tier alien and main objective right now is to buff up my Psi soldier. Until then, I'm gonna be slumming it in randomly generated missions.
