Today (last night) I stayed up all night playing the sims cause I decided screw sleeping, I know it’ll only be nightmares anyway. So I watched a horror movie, drew a scary picture that I didn’t really have intentions for what it’d look like but turned out ok.
But I think it’s kinda messed up that the girl in the drawing looks just like my ex.
But yeah here’s the pic:

Today I did three full loads of laundry, and then mowed the lawn.

For once, it was my own lawn and not someone who hired me.

Fortunately, there are no gardens that needed weeding nor hedges that needed to be trimmed at my place.
 
Today my car broke down in the middle of the busiest street in town during rush hour. Thankfully I was able to coast it into a church parking lot before it died. *sigh*
 
I skated down to the pub to watch some high school friends perform with their band and had a tasty sour ale. I also tried a friends stout so he could get a second opinion that it did in fact, taste like honey nut cherrios.
Always happy to see people from high school who didn't turn into disasters.
 
Coincidently my girl told me she wanted to get a housecat. I don't mind cats, family has had them, but I'm wondering what kind she'll pick at the shelter next week.
 
Today I have smacked myself hard enough in the mouth to leave a bruise. I picked up my tablet to check the time when I was half asleep, but apparently I grabbed the case more than the tablet, and it swung down and smacked right into my mouth. Did not need to wake up that abruptly.
 
Classes started today, and we were asked to indicate our preferred pronouns when introducing ourselves. In a graduate level plant pathology class.

I'm too old for this shit, lads.
 
Today, after spending most of my non-working time for the past 3 days trying to troubleshoot my mom's desktop, I finally found through pure chance and dumb luck the cause for it freezing right after showing the login screen: a faulty wall outlet cord. After wasting spending time replacing the CMOS battery, uninstalling/reinstalling software, troubleshooting the startup process, defragging the hard drive, and learning more than I ever wanted to know about rescue CDs and rebuilding the MBR, the power cord eventually proved to be suspect and replacing it with a spare seemed to resolve the freezing as if it never happened.
 
I played pinball for the first time in....ever, maybe? Closest proper arcade I know of is an hour away and I never really was interested in pinball machines as a kid. There's a dinky little arcade nearby that has a Wheel of Fortune pinball machine and I ended up spending way too many quarters but had way too much fun in the process.
Favorite thing was the headless contestant.

I spent two weeks waiting for the internet providers to come to my house, and when they finally show up, they say "Sorry, we can't put internet here". Couldn't you check that BEFORE I HIRED YOUR SERVICE?! Saying I'm furious is an understatement.
