You know that thing that happens when older, retired friends are posting FB pictures of the dream vacation they are finally taking, and it just happens to be on your bucket list as well, but you can't be jealous or irritated with them because they're such lovely people, so that leaves you not knowing how to feel?
There's probably a lengthy and highly-specific word for it in German philosophy.

I'm working on my top secret project for work.Isn't your work outside, and very publicly displayed?
Not this time! It's inside, and will be a garden show exhibit so no one sees it until I'm done except for the various office people that cycle through and the farmer whose barn I'm building it in. But he's just glad I grew up on a farm so he has someone to talk shop with.

Phase one is complete! Just 6 more phases to go!!
Fortunately the first one was also the hardest so it's all downhill from here.

Super hilarious, I was notified yesterday that a new update for Madden would be downloading (1.10).
Today I was just notified that a new update for Madden would be downloading (1.11).
I wonder what they f&%+ed up so bad that they immediately had to patch it?
Classic EA!!
Aaaaaaahhhhhhhh! Existence! Aaaaaahhhhhhh!Hello!

It sure is a hell of a thing.

Don't know about you lot, but our post-dinner activity this evening consisted of cleaning blue paint of a largely white cat. It was all over his face, so he looked a bit like Mel Gibson in 'Braveheart' and a bit like Aang (?) in Avatar: The Last Airbender. He didn't like it, poor chap, but at least let us finish after being bribed with cat biscuits.

Thanks to Lizards on my Toast and the OGL debacle, My Twitter feed is on fire. I mean my old PC is melting hot! Anyone have a fire extinguisher?
nope! but i *do* have a few gallons of gas . . . .
ain't that whole fuster-cluck just the best decision LomT has made since their tri-decade 'special event'? ahhhhh . . . . beloved IPs are being burned to the ground all across the world . . . . and ol' Fast-Gro is leading the charge.
EDIT: but as a counterpoint -- that ORC thing Paizo announced? --> that is the right kind of awesome.

Dammit.

WHERE ARE THE SPOONS?
While not exactly overflowing with flatware, we used to have enough for our purposes, but now?
One spoon.
One.
Luckily, LIB's fabled Spoon Sense managed to find three other examples in the back of a cupboard, along with the equally legendary Gnome Broth Spoon, but still - their collective absence is a great cause for concern.
(I reckon they're in the kids' rooms, encrusted with old yoghurt, but we'll see)

Found a big giant monster that killed me.
As you do in Elden Ring.
All I know is, it's called a Dragonkin something or other and kicking it in the junk does absolutely nothing!
This is also a cautionary tale for unequipping your crossbow before you get to the obvious boss arena.

Wolfman has nards?

There is a button on the controller for weapon special moves, the default special move for crossbows is Kick where you straight up just kick someone.
So what I did was roll up to the monster's crotch as it reared up, accidentally switched from my sword to my crossbow and instead of doing this super bad ass sword move where I cut someone up, do a back flip and then teleport in again for a finishing move, I kicked it in the nads and was promptly murdered.

Back from the funeral.
A lot of faces that I haven't seen in ages.
Damn, a lot of them hadn't aged well... When did that happen? How? They were young and beautiful!

*hugs* Drejk. I know.
I remember when I went to a childhood friend's funeral in '19. Only a couple of people recognized me. One of those was the on-duty county police officer.
My friend's parents didn't recognize me either, but they hadn't seen me in 27 years, so they're excused.

We have a similar issue with forks, but we don't have any in-house children. I use the same 2-3 forks all the time, and yet Aiymi swears I'm the one misplacing all the forks.

I dropped a table knife a few days ago and it broke near the handle. A singular piece of metal. Broke from maybe four foot-high fall.

I just found out that the Norwegian for "speedbump" is "Farts-humper", and my inner 12 year old will never stop giggling.
In Jamaica, a speed bump is called a "Sleeping Policeman". Not just verbally: there are road signs that say "Sleeping Policeman ahead".
I find this absolutely delightful.| 2 people marked this as a favorite. |

We just call them speed bumps. Or deer, if it's after dark, depending on how big your truck is.

Elden Ring has a weird way of creating introspection.
The whole game I'm getting absolutely destroyed by these bosses called Minor Erdtrees, basically super fast Ents with big giant clubs and shoot lightning everywhere.
Eventually I reach a high enough strength to wield this big giant axe and this shield that negates lightning powers.
So all day yesterday I go around getting revenge and hacking them to pieces with my axe, I must've murdered at least half a dozen trees yesterday.
On the one hand, I'm a hippie, so on some level I feel bad.
On the other hand, they absolutely f!%$ing deserved it.

I wish we used signs like that in the UK, rather than just calling speed bumps "Sleeping Policemen".

Also, in the town I grew up in, "Sleeping Policeman" would mean that the cop (there was only one) was napping in his patrol car again.I just found out that the Norwegian for "speedbump" is "Farts-humper", and my inner 12 year old will never stop giggling.In Jamaica, a speed bump is called a "Sleeping Policeman".

Lol, if that town was Rosemont, Illinois, it was probably my cousin.
Just kidding. Rosemont is too big to have only one cop.

The county north of gran only has one cop on duty at any given time.

We had snow last night - storm is overselling it rather, though it might be worse where Jurassic Bard is. Ma and Pa Longears say they're snowed in, but they don't mind.

Still heading toward a 3AM wakeup, but so far there hasn't been anything but a whole lot of rain.

I ended up working for 12 hours, I'm so done with this wet and heavy snow, especially if we're only going to get an inch and a half.

Have a meeting with hr at 3. Yay.Sending positive particles in your direction?
Ok, maybe not positive particles.
Dear physicists, would positive particles harm Freehold?
Alpha radiation is made of positive particles (2 protons and 2 neutrons forming a particle with +2 charge, basically a helium nucleus). You can irradiate Freehold with too many of them. Thankfully they are usually stopped by skin or other thin barriers, so as long as Freehold doesn't eat them, he should be fine.

Freehold, don't eat the glowing snow!
