An earbud falls out and touches a clean dish or falls into the sanitizer sink and your dumbass is either ignorant or negligent to the fact.

How the fuck do you not feel an earbud fall out? And have you heard of washing it again?

People are retarded and will just ignore that shit. Most restaurants are already festering piles of nastiness with apathetic staff. Anyone who actually cares about having a clean restaurant should be encouraged just about every step of the way, as they are a rare and dying breed.

If you eat out regularly, you deserve to get sick. That shit is the easiest scam to avoid. Making food yourself is 1/4 of the cost at home, and restaurants have the decency to require tipping too.
 
i got in an accident and got things sorted out peacefully, but... my car needs repairs.
fortunately it's not undrivable but the wheel's fucked and the passenger door wont open anymore. gonna cost a bit but at least i can fix it.

still kinda depressing i can't get to work now.
 
Saw something very unusual this morning. Had slept in. Around 8:40 heard someone singing "Ave Maria". Looked out window, saw about 200 people, mostly teens/young adults, walking down our street, heading for the beach. Someone was carrying the Stars and Stripes, one carrying the Catholic Church flag, and others with banners I didn't recognize. A priest was singing. Someone was carrying a cross, large but not big enough to be crucified on.

To get to the beach from our street you have to climb a hill, then work your way down to the beach. Two separate places to reach the beach, but each involves climbing a hill. One hill is pretty steep, the other not so steep. There are some areas where wooden "steps" have been put down.

Didn't see the people returning, but by that time I was up and doing things.

Have found it's taking longer to recover fully from the spinal surgeries than it did open-heart nine years ago. Age is undoubtedly part of it. This time the body took far more trauma and pain than with open-heart, three surgeries vice one, and quantum leaps more pain/agony throughout the period, until the spinal fusion. In comparison, there was only very occasional pain, not severe, leading up to the heart surgery and what pain there was afterward went away fast. Within 30 days was walking four miles/day, as I did before the open-heart. Been walking again since July, best I can do at one time is maybe three miles. Just taking longer, not pushing it. Limiting factor is tightness and discomfort in back muscles. Mercifully, the nerve agony was left on the operating table. But I'll get there.

oof thats not a good sign...
probably should just try to forget about them - its generic advice but its the truth
i wasted like 4 years once beating myself up over a girl, convincing myself that she was the one. in the end i realized i was just comfortable with her and was seeking out familiarity because i was depressed. once i started working on making myself a better person (better job, quitting addictions, physical exercise, removing toxic friends) i realized that i dont need her and that were both better off without each other.
 
Mixed, I got my health and a loving family who despite our completely differnet views on the Pandemic/the vaxx get along well. Canada is getting tyranical, no plane or trains for unvaxxed on the 29th. I try to cherrish them while I can, Lord knows when they go due to the Jabs. At the same time I may be at risk of being hauled off to "isolation camp" when shit hits the wall this winter. I pray everyday for their and my protection. I never thought I would accept Jesus Christ and my Lord and Savior but the world is in dire need of him.
 
My great-grandpa has been in poor health in general lately but early this week he passed out and landed face-first into the refrigerator door, had to be taken to the hospital. He's 94 so we're all collectively freaking out about it. His lungs were in poor shape due to being sick and due to nearby fires, so he couldn't talk at all, but apparently last night in the hospital he was singing (I like to think it was Gilbert and Sullivan opera) At the same time he didn't know where he was and his cognition seemed a lot worse than it was before. My parents and I are going to drive up to see him as soon as he gets back home, but the when is starting to look more like an "if".
To all my beer drinking Kiwis: have a Corona tonight in his honor, he needs good energy sent his way!
 
This year has been hard. One of my best friends was diagnosed with a cancer recurrence in April, and it's terminal. It really sucks for her and her family.

I got into a bit of a spiral because I couldn't even look forward to the end of the pandemic (ha!), because this year is just ticking down the time until she dies.

Then I was signed up for the clotshot (J&J) partly to make an in-law happy for an event. Once the 7 people or so died from it I decided hell no and refused. And my work is super woke so I have been in fear of when they are going to make a stink about it. And that just kept getting worse with Biden's nonsense.

I am feeling lonely because all my friends and acquaintances are left wing and I feel really out of step. For example my oldest friend got her 12 y/o vaxxed by enrolling him in an experimental trial before it was available and then was so concerned about it that she actually made a stink and got the kid unblinded from the study to make sure he got the vax.

As for today, there's this one guy at work that I just absolutely hate and I complained to my boss then my boss just pointed out all the things I could have done differently. My boss wasn't wrong about any of it, but it was super not fun to get criticized while I'm pissed about my coworker who does in fact totally suck.

I still have a lot of good things right now. I just need to find some IRL friends who are like minded.

I lost a very dear friend to cancer earlier this year. It sucks that I wasn't able to see her due to the pandemic because she seemed very upbeat on the phone and whatnot near the end and thus her passing came as somewhat of a shock, but I suspect she just wanted to spare others from experiencing the same sorrow I'm sure she must've been feeling.

She wasn't even 30 yet and she had so many aspirations. What I took away from it is that you never know when life/shit'll just happen, so cherish those precious moments with the people for whom you care. I'm sorry to hear about your friend and I hope that you can both try to make the most out of a terribly unfair situation.
 
Lost a relatively close friend of mine to cancer at the beginning of the month. I've been working so much that I haven't been able to process it and I can really feel it wearing me down. His passing was extremely sudden and he was close to having a GFM funded to see a specialist. Who knows if it would have actually helped. What kills me is that we weren't exactly on the best terms as of late, now what's tearing at me is the regret of never really patching things up between us.
With multiple employees quitting due to a number of reasons and the demand for us to service more clients, there's been an influx of tickets with barely anyone around to resolve them. I've been dealing with a coworker who is technically on a higher tier offloading her tickets on me and I'm just apprehensive to call her out on it. She's made a point of letting everyone know she's a queer kween pee-oh-cee, god forbid she chimps out from being asked to carry a bit of her weight.
I'm looking forward to my vacation time...
