Friday 125 Loser's Club Edition

It's Frappucino Friday here at the office and I'm the most awake now than I've been all week. Not doing much else tonight except playing some tribal prog and opening up this bottle of Louis Martini Cabernet Sauvignon. Tomorrow will be a short 5 hour shift then I'm off to the theater to watch the It remake. The one they just opened up by my apartment got new recliner seats and beers on tap, but I'm unsure if I want to drink during a horror movie. Might steal away from the frightfulness.

Ah well, to corporate Murica. You suck most of the time, but you got your moments.

You found some Tribal prog then

Busy three days ahead prepping due to the Emmy's so not much rest for me. Checking in on family in London but thankfully none of them live south of the river so no real danger, with exception to my Brother in law who is a met copper. But damn, does Trump need to keep his trap shut. Got a smackdown from Theresa this morning.

I was able to clean out my file cabinet a few weeks ago - with the arrival of the baby I finally got around to properly organizing my important documents, etc. (and create a file for the baby's most importantly).

So yeah, gonna have my husband clean out his "junk drawer" and get all his stuff filed properly too. WOOHOO!

Any sort of normalcy is what I look forward to now, lol. I was out doing yard work a couple weeks ago and, while I did always enjoy it, I loved just getting outside for an hour to do mundane shit.

Wednesday-Friday was my first time working again after getting a concussion a few weeks back, and although they were only half days and from home, I'm feeling rather enervated now. Planning on a rather relaxing weekend now, with no plans other than going to a street fair nearby tomorrow.

Glad to hear the child finally arrived, Jenny; hope everything is well in that regard

Thanks, 5 weeks tomorrow! Feel like I'm finally settling into some kind of groove.


How'd you get a concussion??

Fun with friends whom I met in Mexico. Haven't seen them since I got here.

Staying off the computer - long week working on it.

Today we'll host a Japanese language "speech contest" in my university and I'll watch the students give it a shot. I kind of regret not suggesting a rap battle instead.

Sure, it would probably have fallen on deaf years, but I like to think the fall itself would've counted as a sick drop

Just a stupid accident, partly my fault. Really just a perfect storm of variables coming together.

This was my third concussion, though, so apparently I'm doomed to get dementia, now

The most amusing part of the whole thing was when we went to the hospital (my head was bleeding profusely) and they asked me if I had taken any drugs that evening. I said no, I never take drugs, and the triage nurse winked and said 'sure, me neither, but how about tonight?' I don't think she believed me

Got in from work, ate, and slept for the best part of two hours.

We're moving flat next weekend, and I've got a whole bunch of shit to sort out, so nothing fun will happen for the next two weekends. The whole episode is stressing me out considerably, to be honest. We're moving from furnished to practically unfurnished and the amount of shit to buy is exhausting. And then we got the keys last night and there's a whole bunch of high-level (3m+) lights not illuminating, which has to be reported as a fault with no firm lead time on when they will be fixed. Not a very promising start to life with a new landlord when you're reporting repairs on a property you don't even live in yet.

LOL


And damn THIRD? You obviously have a thick skull lololol. I had a very mild concussion once and I felt so insanely out of sorts for almost a month - like I was watching myself live my life from outside my mind/body and not actually participating. Just a massive fog.

And eh, I'm sure most of our brains are gonna be fucked anyway...from alcohol if nothing else, lol.

Well, I drink the recommended 40g of pure alcohol of every day, just to help check everything

Yeah; one concussion was 100% unfortunate and weird as hell - literally, I was hit by a rock falling from the sky

The second was my fault, caused by a skiing mistake.

This one, meh.

The worst part of the whole thing is being told I need to rest and not push myself; I fucking hate resting and love to push myself

The Wrath of Irma (TM) has finally left TN, so I will be do ze dreaded yard work one day. My paternal grandmother passed away Wednesday about a month shy of 91. I will miss her terribly, but at the same time I am relieved that she won't linger for years in a nursing home, which she vocally and vehemently opposed.

I've been awake for almost 24 hours and I'm starting to feel a bit loopy.

Take 60mg of Adderall and push it! Report back in 24 more hours.

Oh, and it's fucking cold in this country now. Can't remember the last time September was so grim. It's like summer ended overnight on the last day of August.

I wish I could relate to that. I just want some rain... It's probably been 4 months since I last saw water falling from any sort of cloud

i have gut pain so I'm waiting on my diarrhea to kick in. i almost chopped my finger off with an axe but only managed to get the finger nail off and a few cuts underneath

Try again, using the axe with your non-dominant hand this time.

It really did, didn't it? It's not like we had a very warm summer to begin with, but the temperature suddenly dropped by around 10 degrees.

Been beautiful and very warm here. September is easily my favourite month of the year.

I miss the cold. We've had one of the hottest summers in California in a long time. Mid-June and July we had around 40 straight days of 90+ degree temperatures. And then we got hit again around Mid-August with about 2 and a half weeks of nothing but 100 degree heat, and that heat wave wasn't just localized to Sac, the whole Bay Area suffered as well. Even San Francisco had a couple days of 100 degree heat, and that's unusual.

This past week has been pleasant though, just mid 80's and a few low 90's. But I would say that most Norcaler's are ready for Fall to start.

I enjoy September, as it means 1.) August is finally fucking over and 2.) it's followed by October. We generally start to get our first cooler, less humid weather in September. By late September, we're getting our first really cool nights...cool enough for a small "flash fire" in the wood stove just to knock the chill out of the house. This September is different, however. We started Sept. with very unseasonably cool weather - the first week was more like the last should have been. Then Harvery and Irma's remnants kept it cool/overcast/rainy. Now that they've moved on, we're back into the mid to upper 80s (F)! In any event, Sept. also means I'm just a month or so away from vacation, and it also affords some generally favorable cabin/camping weather. So yeah...bring it September!

Usually I would 100% agree, but we've had some heavy rainfall and unusually cold temperatures so far. It's only in the last few days that we've had any of that mellow September sunshine, and even then it was really cold last night.

We had that heat wave for a couple weeks in June and then July and August were just pure rain, from my point of view. I'm not a big fan of high temperatures (give me snow-drenched mountains over beaches any day), but it has felt like Summer was one month and Autumn will be in full effect for half the year

this year it was mostly the summer that wasn't. warm weather comeback is really appreciated right now. sleeping in a tent in 3 celsius makes me appreciate this temperature a little more
