Post something good that happened today, Parts Two

^^^ Cheating on the Mrs. again?? Or did she wise up and divorce you??

I’m curious, too.

[Queen Victoria]

I heard a piece performed by the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra on our local classical station.  Well played.

Guess what, Scrap? You've pissed me off sufficiently to spend time in the sinbin. I've tried to leave you alone, hoping that you'd do the same, but that didn't work. You keep doing your best to piss me off and so I've had it with you.

Do you honestly want to continue pissing me off? Have a think and remember that as an admin, there's plenty of other things I can do, on and off this place.

Enjoy the sinbin. Fucking wanker.

Oh, and DFG - I didn't let you back in for this sort of thing.

As for good things happening today, see my previous post.

 Of course not! Having opinions you don’t agree with and unintentionally making you butthurt for no reason! Things like that!

You are overreacting to nothing. Seriously. Practice what you preach about “dealing with your butthurt.”

I’ve been curious as to your marital status for a while. I didn’t bother to ask because I figured you wouldn’t reply. I just admitted an internal thought in aspie fashion and you show us your sensitive side.

On my day off I took my dog on a nice long walk by the river. Then I read some of my old statistics textbook and fumbled around in R (i dont know what Im doing in R). Then I went to the library to read a screenwriting textbook, but some kid pulled the fire alarm, so I left and continued reading in a cafe where i bought a ginger beer....yummm...... ^_^

how is everyone?

Fuck off.

how is everyone?

Overworked. Work's been demanding and I've been involved in organising a conference. No time for anything, it feels like.

Got my kid's "new/old" car back yesterday from the body shop and put four new tires on it today.

WOW! As always, a brand new set of fresh tires is an amazing improvement.

Taking it in tomorrow to have the dealer go over it completely and make sure it is as ready as it can be for a teen driver.

That sucks...hopefully 1) it pays off, and 2) the little breaks you do have can be filled with pleasurable reminisces of non-work things. Do you drink tea? Sometimes making a cup is a nice vacation for the temporally challenged.

Well after dropping the car on a Sunday to the dealership shop, not expecting for them to even have time to look at it until this morning some time, they already called and suggested some work to be done.

They found a leaky brake line and so I asked them to replace all the brake lines, replace all the fluid and make sure the brakes are 100%.
After that and replacing the strut bushings and aligning the suspension, the total will be just under seven hundred bucks.
Sounds like a win to me.

I have the day off!

Thank you.

Both pay off but both are also taxing in the extreme. Hopefully things will start calming down by the end of this week.

how is everyone?

Jack has been really good. Transferred to a new department at work, so now have a personal life back. It's taken a while to feel settled in the new role, due to unexpected limitations. Not sure if it's an issue of building trust, or my new boss being cautious about overworking me. Could be both, but either way, it slowly keeps getting better, and it's been months since I daydreamed about a catastrophe that prevents me from working.

Hey thats excellent news! Glad it seems to be working out for you . Not daydreaming about catastrophes is a great sign. :]

My work has been good too. Its not very demanding on the intellectual side of things, but the company I have for coworkers is awesome. Everyone has a bit of nerdy social awkwardness to their character, and also tend to be very interesting. I think just about everyone is an artist, musician, or writer of some sort. Very creative bunch.
