The birth (or death) of a relative, the release of a new program, game, series, movie, the date you were dreaming about, could be anything
My kid will go to summer camp soon and I’ll have a little bit of time again. Looking forward to it.
Still waiting for GNU Taler to become a thing in the EU.
Looking forward to dying. Seems nice.
In a few days I’ll be moving to a new state to be closer with my long distance girlfriend of a year. I’ve been feeling pretty directionless and stuck for a long time now, so I’m looking forward to being able to start a new chapter of my life.
I’m gonna go camping. Not sure where or where yet, but I’m gonna drive up into the mountains and spend a couple nights in the tent.
My wife is next to me, holding me in her arms while she sleeps. I am excited for her to wake up naturally and then we will go get bagels from our favorite bagel place.
I’ve got tomorrow off, which is neat.
The weather was pretty good today.
Excited might be going a bit far but hopefully getting a referral to General Medicine and a little closer to understanding what’s wrong with me all the time.
Beyond that some D&D I plan to run when I’m better. Planning and plotting as we speak 😎
Going home. I’m at some weekend festival to support a hobby my husband has become very passionate about. I’m incredibly happy for him and love that he’s found this but it’s just not my thing and I want to go home. Also some asshole at a party last night said something stupid to me to make me feel unnecessarily unwelcome and I really shouldn’t be letting it affect me. Anywho
ETA I also really miss my dogs!

Fuck that guy. He’s the problem, not you. Try to look at it from that perspective and you may ease your mind a little.
Who does that? It’s horrible to treat someone like that.
Thank you! I really appreciate that and needed to hear it :)
I think a lot of the worst people on earth are getting pretty old and grey, so it’ll be fun to watch the world turn as they fall off.
Realistic: Getting a faster motorcycle and going on longer touring rides and track days with it. I currently have a Suzuki GZ250 but it struggles on the highway, and the acceleration of even a “middleweight” bike like the Trident 660 is exhilarating.
Unrealistic: Getting a girlfriend…
Found out yesterday that a manager that hates me is extremely demoralized, currently job hunting, and already tried to quit.
Earlier this month, I found out that a different manager, who in the past tried to get me fired, themselves tried to resign at the beginning of the year. That manager’s contract is up in August and their department is failing on just about every metric imaginable so, they’re likely going to quit or be asked to resign at that point.
Finally, a coworker who was working with that second manager to try and get me fired was themselves fired by corporate for a multitude of reasons. These reasons include but are not limited to: credible accusations of drunk driving company vehicles, harassing and bullying others, offering cocaine to both coworkers and clients, and allegedly attempting to extort someone else out of their job… which is a felony (we’re currently encouraging their victim to go to authorities, but it involves leaked nudes and they are understandably embarrassed about the whole thing… which is their decision, no one can force them). This fired coworker once told a whole room of people “well if [TrueStoryBob] and I both walk into the GM’s office, who do you think is gonna walk out with a job.” Well, we can now definitively say it was them who would walk out of that office unemployed. They had to be forced off company property; like physically escorted onto the sidewalk by the GM and the Business Manager.
All of this has legitimately put a pep in my step. Overall, I like my job, however I was already putting my CV out there just in case. Now, I can stop the job search and not worry about potentially having to move as I also like where I live. By the way, my manager is an absolute dream who’s been watching these other two departments burn to the ground with unadulterated glee as both of these managers walk ass backwards into their own demise.
The inevitable end of capitalism
Having just washed my clothes, as a night owl I’m going to reward myself with a nice dinner, when most people are having breakfast.
Here’s the plan:There’s a coffee shop/deli in my town that has the best tomato soup, plus they make their own croutons, the best I’ve ever had for soup, as they are hard and don’t get soggy. I’m going to order two soups for takeout, pour olive oil on it, as well as cracked pepper and cubed avocado. Also, I’m going to air fry some asparagus with garlic butter, on the side.
Then there’s sharp cheddar in the fridge, I’m going to make a bunch of squares, place each square on a tortilla chip and bake at a low temp for a short time, just enough to make the cheese ooze without it thinning. On top of each chip, a teaspoon of green onion dip and a slice of fresh serrano chilies. That’s the original, old school nachos recipe from Ciudad Juarez back in the 1930s or 40s, I believe.
Not to toot my own horn, but I think this all sounds pretty damn good!
