the day has been pretty chill so far (other than work stuff in the morning)
I’m trying to think of if i want to stream next or work on some cookies a little later.
Spent most of the day sleeping of staying up all night because I got back into FFXIV, and meant to go to the grocery store, but we have a wind storm and my power just went out!
Luckily a friend down the way just finished up their lasagna for dinner and offered us some!
I woke up at 2 and I have been running around to make tonight’s concert and I’m here!
We’ll be on at 7:30 PT in about an hour. There’s a live stream here: https://www.youtube.com/live/dvmz8UohqwY
E: and with the exception of me jumping the gun a couple of times, the concert went well! I feel good and now I’m going to rest, lol. If you missed the live show, the recording should be up soon at the same link.
mad bc
- i was gonna go get my ear/s pierced (one for free bc bday) but it snowed last night and it’s like in the 30s temp wise (fahrenheit) so i cba to go out in that LOL
- working on my oc pages on my website and i was using deviantart to look up stamps but some of their servers are borked rn :/
otherwise fine! c: might grubhub or similar (except not doordash, fuck to doordash) a burger bc i’ve really been craving one but We’ll See
submitted a job application for an assistant position at our partner’s college and crossing my fingers that we hear back soon
Good luck! That’s basically how my sister got her current job. She joined as an admin assistant to the chem dept and knew enough inside baseball through her partner that she impressed the faculty
Due to Many Reasons, I didn’t sleep at all the other night, and last night got a full night’s rest WAY early so I woke up at like, 1 am, then snuck in another hour just before I had to leave for work, so my sleep schedule is thoroughly fucked. I have absolutely no idea when I’m gonna get tired tonight or how long I’m gonna be out once I do hit the bricks. But the good news is I close tomorrow so I have plenty of time to push things
today I am manning a stand at a mental health connection event and I’m having fun! I genuinely love this kind of shit, I love being able to infodump at people and getting paid for it LMAO
I helped out for the first time in a theater production (I did sound) and man the past week has been so fun and I loved working with everyone but I have soooo much work to catch up on now
Today is an errands and cleaning day - roommate and I were sandblasted yesterday afternoon to the point that Ace made the executive decision to bail from groceries last night and just buy a ready-made dinner and get cake. Objectively correct decision.
Friend and partner of the household is coming over this week for Friendsgiving. There’s been a bit of a wrangling for the weekly & holiday menu, since we’re now balancing two sets of food restrictions (one sensory based, one pescetarian). But hopefully it should go well.
Today I am happy that all of the posts I liked on making up mech pilots (all of the responses) are now archived. I’m on the last days of a bad cold, and I’m ready to knock out some Christmas shopping.
But it’s also a morning where I just do not want to eat a good breakfast.
gotta go back 2 work tomorrow and I Don’t Wanna
Today is playoffs for soccer and I stayed up all night playing FFXIV because I’m an adult.
Eta: my soccer team made it to the championship but we lost
But I get to eat burgers
Went and painted my fencing mask today (pic in the Martial Arts thread) and then did some good video gaming.
Also had to talk a friend through her dad’s end-stage liver disease diagnosis. I feel very bad for her, she’s lost both parents within 2-3 years and her mom’s death was fucking brutal. At least this time it’s a hateful alcoholic man that none of us have any sympathy for.
Beeping. Bit of a social anxiety tangle right now - we have a friend/partner of the household here to visit for Thanksgiving week. It’s also the first Thanksgiving I’ve opted to do my own thing instead of going to see my parents - they’ve come down to visit my sister the next state over.
[Edit: changed my mind about having all that detail up. Though, a contributing factor to the anxiety that I realized retroactively. I got a pumpkin spice latte from Wawa for breakfast this morning, and they appear to have forgotten any of the pumpkin spice, so it was just a straight latte. I’ve had chai lattes before but they haven’t hit me nearly as bad, so. Perhaps a latte after years without coffee would Do Something to my anxiety levels lmfao.]
do note that there is revision history!
for anyone reading, report your own comment or DM it to me if you want the revision history of a comment to be removed. I’ve taken the liberty for you this time Dis. i think rev history is useful overall but you know, sometimes you don’t want some stuff to stick around, like in this instance. I’ll take care of it.
on the topic of the thread: good start to the day, did some yoga, thinking about how much I love my wife. hopefully sets the tone for the week.
Tyvm barquq, good to know and thanks for giving me a hand.
Also very good way to start a day and week. Very pro wife-loving in this house.
Today has been a super busy day for me, but in a very good way. I started today by walking to the coffee stand to get coffee as well as an excuse to play Pokemon Go, which is an excuse to walk more. Then I’ve been working on my game all day and am close to wrapping up an entire content node in a single day; just have some testing left.
I also finally made it to the grocery store and bought groceries. A little bit more testing and I can go play mahjong and FFXIV…
I am the only person in the office today and have literally nothing to do in the lab at all, so I’m just chilling for 22/hr I guess
