I have bought probably too many things off of the steam summer sale so far, though I haven't spent a ton of money at least. I started playing one of those things I picked up, PowerWash Simulator. It's fine, it's kind of a podcast-listening game like car mechanic simulator, which would be nice if I actually listened to podcasts. Unlike CMS though, it doesn't have its own shitty music to turn off and it doesn't feel that annoying to play. You really have to get most every nook and cranny but you at least don't have to be completely perfect, though the leeway the game gives you with something being considered "clean" can sometimes feel off. Sometimes a thing that's still a bit dirty gets pinged as clean, most of the time I have to hunt down some specks of dirt I missed, and only occasionally it feels a bit unreasonable with how clean it wants something to be.

Dad should be home tomorrow, which is good. I honestly haven't seen him since the first day he got put in the hospital. I would have gone with mom today, but I'm honestly a little dishiveled, and if I'm self-concious about how I look I think my mom is gonna be even more concerned about it.
