Happy Thanksgiving to those in the US that are celebrating. Today was pretty much like every Thanksgiving for us other than my brother and his fiancée didn't come over because if COVID and my grandson was at his dad's house (he was with us last year). That means I still made a huge dinner because t...
Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate it. Here we do friendsgiving, instead of being with family. Just the same people I usually like around and one of the people who came over for Halloween too, so a small gathering. The food was good. I wish I had offered to help in some way, but I hadn't left...
We're moving office in early December, so we need to box up all our stuff for the move. Ordinarily I'd be like, what a pain. But I was really excited at the thought of needing to come in to the office for a day. I could take a couple hours extra to walk around downtown and check out the plaza, the p...
Still haven't been up to anything productive lately. I started watching an Australian kids show called Bluey and I really like it, it's cute and reminds me of when I was a kid. I went to the dispensary again even though I shouldn't have and I spent the rest of my money on weed. The dispensary messe...
Today was a very long day. Parts were stressful but I didn't feel the need to use or drink. I thought at one point "Hey you made it past 10 days, it's fine if you get a little messed up tonight". I immediately told myself no and made a list of things I had to do. Get toothpaste, toilet cleaner, groc...
I was recently diagnosed with ADHD and I started using Habitica to help with my executive function. One of the challenges is to write in a journal every day for a week and I’m hoping it will help with my emotional regulation. I’m really excited to try this because my executive dysfunction can get pr...
After long delay, I have asked for a pay raise from my boss, the wait was tough and the anxiety I went through nearly kill me. I always have the doubt that, is it me or everyone does? Me being an introvert tends to have difficulty to start up conversation, especially this type. Luckily at the end ...
I decided to start a solo Minecraft game so I could experience the start of the game organically. Part of the reason I didn't enjoy our early play sessions is that newbie was a bit too on-the-ball. On the first in-game day, when HGR and I were faffing about the overworld and punching sheep, newbie w...
I've been sleeping the days away lately. I wake up and I'm still tired so I go back to sleep... What else is there to do? I'm not allowed to work out which is how I usually start my day, so I end up more tired than usual between that and the surgery itself. Just got up to give the rats some cheerio...
I’m doing well, despite the fact that my wife is slogging through a bout with COVID-19. I have a new job that I love. My bosses seem to like me. The United States of America is starting to come out of its flirtation with fascism. I’m coming out, inch by painstaking inch, of the broom closet. And my ...
I think I figured out my keyboard issues. The only time my keys actually work (at least the main ones I need: 2, w, s and x) is when the keyboard gets warm. The reason they would start working after I payed Sims was because it heated the whole laptop up because it's a game running at full spec. Of c...
I'm still in pain and just took my last oxycodone... I'm going to have to call the doctor tomorrow because I'm still in pain and I guess shouldn't be by now. I have to go up and down stairs constantly, living on the third floor, I know that doesn't help. Not like I could avoid it. One of the incisio...
