Just did my taxes, and thankfully before I submitted them, I found a place I didn't fill out proper. So I fixed it and everything looks good. But now I'm paranoid I hosed up somewhere else and will get audited and please I make peanuts!

Finally finished MadMen. What a waste of an ending. Now I don't know what other series to watch.

I rarely ever drink, but I had a glass of wine tonight. I would've liked to have been carded. C'mon, isn't the rule that the customer has to look older than 40 for you to not be required to card? I'm not that old yet.

I'm scheduled to work six days this week because of the loving SuperBowl, and I have the worst head cold right now. And the state liquor licensing agency is out in force, trying to catch bars and restaurants that aren't carding properly and poo poo like that. They've already been to the restaurant I work at several times this weekend. For gently caress's sake, we're not even in the same city as this loving event, but the entire region is getting reamed by it.

I just bought A New Leaf and a 2DS for my dad to play while he is in the hospital. He was still playing the old Wii one before he went in.

There's a lot of improvements, but there's also a lot of poo poo. Animal Tracks is still programmed in, so tell him not to run about everywhere unless he wants a grassless town. The final upgrade to the Nook store is locked behind a visitor who only shows up rarely and requires you to complete a clothing test four times where you have to dress up to fit a certain style. The first town I had had this character show up once in a year of play. Also, the new diving mechanic they included is loving bullshit.

These are my first world problems, because I'm super mad over a video game for children.

I got rid of the scratch cover on my ipad because there was a ton of crap under it. I went to get one at the apple store but they didn't have any in stock because my model is like 4 versions behind the newest one.

Also I'm really not concerned about it getting scratched but a ipad without a scratch cover gathers fingerprints like crazy.

The three-months-old SD card in my phone is dying, I just lost two weeks of photos to it. I'll have to buy a new one because I didn't keep neither the packaging nor the receipt, so no exchanging it under warranty for me!

Whyyyyy did I read the comments. You never read the comments! But I did, about how Amy Winehouse was a cultural icon and her death was tragic and then the storm went full force when someone posted that no, Winehouse was a druggie whose death brought her some degree of fame, and the Kardashians are icons.

Suck as that is, it's right.


My windshield crack is now getting larger.

I looked into getting a new used car because mine is almost 20 years old, and everything is pricy as gently caress. I actually found a Saturn with less than 50k miles on it....that is a 1994. I could pay cash for the entire thing and walk off. But it's ancient and I can't find a decent review.

The taco place keeps giving me an extra order of chips with the extra cup of queso. I don't want more chips, dammit, just more cheese! I'm staring at these two giant baskets of chips and wondering how I'm going to get them home because I abhor food waste.

The Internet is (kinda) down. I say kinda, because it'll be up for five minutes, down for two, up for 30, down for a minute, and up for 15.

Case in point, just thread three pages, stalled trying to make this post. It's more annoying than just not having the Internet.

Spent too much time working out, hanging out with my wife, and walking my dog today that I have to spend most of tomorrow doing chores and my side job assignments, with no time for video games. I also have a Super Bowl party to go to so I have to get that all done on ~4 hours less than normal too.

Also a woman with whom I went to college got engaged a few months ago, and today revealed to the FB world that she's pregnant with a picture of her belly and the caption "someone came early to the party!", which to me is a hilarious way to phrase that but I have no one here with whom to share that :(

One of the YouTube channels I watch for gameplay tips has run out of tips and the host fills the airtime with random neuron firings instead. If I wanted to listen to strangers attempt humor, I'd tune in to a podcast or something.

I am in the final steps towards being hired in a job I didn't think I would ever get, and it's terrifying. If I get the job, I'm worried I'll gently caress it up. If I don't get the job, it'll be profoundly disappointing.

If you get the job, you must realise that everyone, and I mean everyone, is bullshitting their way through the workday. Some more, some less, but this is a fact.

I may have said this before and if I have, then I would once again like to express my unwavering dissatisfaction with the fact that every time - Every Time - I go to plug in a usb device, I get the cable the wrong way round and have to do the awkward reach-around finger-shuffle to rotate it and re-locate the port.

Yes I used the phrase reach-around finger-shuffle when referring to PC hardware, go ahead point and have a laugh you look like you need it.

Well then, about 45% of the time, the open holes on the USB thingie go away from the white connector thingie in the USB port.

I ate some bananas this morning and got a mild allergic reaction so now my throat is slightly swollen and it's not life threatening or anything, but it is uncomfortable.

Before anyone asks I'm allergic to the pesticides and they apparently seeped into the banana. This doesn't always happen, in fact is pretty rare with bananas so I'm also slightly irritated that it happened this time.
