Spent the day fishing with my dad, which was awesome on its own, but as we were packing up and getting ready to leave a lady showed up with a baby pig and I got to play with it a few minutes.

My workers compensation claim was approved, and my cunty line manager got written up for spreading lies about me and generally being a bitch about my injury. Plus a dressing down from our state injury recovery specialist. Feels good man.

Kinda a crosspost from the CineD genthread, but my day was made awesome because my favorite (goon-run) podcast This Was Rad came out with a new episode today, discussing my favorite movie in my childhood, Flight of the Navigator and I'm irrationally excited to listen to it.

Today is my cat's 17th birthday. She's in early stage kidney failure but all things considered, remarkably good health.

Lots of Markipliers' videos are being subtitled! As much as I enjoy listening to his voice, being able to watch his stuff with my implant off is thoroughly enjoyable as well.

Apart from just generally being on holiday, I had an excellent lunch at a place that would have been way out of my league if not for a coupon that cut the price by like 3/4.

Congrats! Today, I played a few hours of Dark Souls III, was offered a part-time bartending gig at a friend's bar because they heard I do it well, I finally managed to track down a specific vintage of wine as a surprise for my dad, and I've been very zen all afternoon instead of the usual baseline anxious. Today owns.

Scathach posted:Doublepost because I got the job! Woo Woo! Also woo haircut, that haircut owns. My neighbor found my debit card that I dropped, and didn't steal it or attempt to extort me for money to get it back. Unfortunately I already reported it missing and the bank issued me a new one, so I have to destroy it, but hey. Oh and there was a dude outside the subway station with chalk and he was having people write positive things and so there was a lot of BOSTON STRONG and pretty drawings and some girl wrote a thing in Spanish and English and I wrote a thing and it was pretty cool.

I've finally gone and visited a place I've wanted to for a while. I've tried multiple times before, but the paths leading there were just so wet/muddy that I kept being rebuffed. Surprisingly, there were still some muddy spots, even though we've had quite a long stretch of time without rain. Still, it's pretty cool to stand like 40 feet above our nation's first nuclear reactors.

I'm back to practicing art again, and today I felt great, yesterday I felt terrible, but not I feel much better about myself. I even got to 100 lb squats, deadlifts and pushpress. I can do this thing, as long as I keep up the practice, and things will get better I just know it.

Today it's a public holiday, so I'm off from work with a full salary as we always are on public holidays here. It's 10 in the morning, I'm still in bed - and in 2 hours time, the wife and I will be going to my parents place for a nice lunch, and to show them our brand new car.

Three weeks of severe body-wide joint pain has almost completely subsided, I only have a bit of pain in my wrists and right knee right now. It feels AMAZING to not feel. Now if only I could get my blood test results back so I can get a diagnosis.

I'm counting down the days that I move to Chicago (this Sunday), and I keep getting well-wishes from people at work. The best one I got was from the president of the company; he'd received an email from one of my clients saying what a great job I've done on their account and that I'll be missed. He forwards the email on to me and congratulates me on my promotion and says that he's from Chicago and the next time he's in town he'll look me up and we'll go to a Cubs game. It was such a little thing that the client did but it really made my day, and to have the president of the company, who I wasn't even sure was aware I existed, send me that message was great.

Despite cramming a hundred things into my to-do list today, I managed to get them all done, including picking up dinner for the family. I am now chilling out with a beer and a dog that is not my own in a house that is not mine. House + dog sitting.

Got my check today from the insurance of the guy that caused minor cosmetic damage to my car. Damage so minor I fixed it myself, so the ~$2500 for repairs went straight into savings. Who knew car bonkings could be so profitable? please don't hit my car again they don't make aerios anymore >
