I watched RPM a few years ago online. I enjoyed it, despite the major issues with shakeycam.

I got a raise.
"What's the problem?", you're thinking. Well, it's a goddamn huge raise, for one; up three dollars an hour.
"Okay... So?"

I'm deaf, and on deaf disability. I can only work X amount of hours a week, or make Y amount take-home pay a month. I was already barely squeaking beneath the monthly limit at 8.55 an hour, working 16 hours a week.

"So just ask them not to give you the raise?"
It's been in effect since last week; it'll show up on my next paycheck. I only just found out about it today.
The disability people have been supposed to increase the limit for a while now, but even if they do I'm not sure if it'll be enough.

The store didn't have a small tub of onion dip, forcing us to buy a larger tub. The result of this will be that we'll run out of potato chips before we run out of onion dip.

We've been trying to run out of both chips and dip at the same time, for like two weeks now. Neither of us really like potato chips.

You could also have gotten a small dip of some other variety, did it need to be onion? Is MrsBibs having Pregnancy cravings that only onion can.... hahahahahahaha can't even finish that sentence. The thought of MrBibs getting some is too much to bear. :haw:

:shrug: Onion dip is the only dip either of us like. If we bought other type, it'd just sit in the fridge until it went bad, and we're not a wasting-food sort of couple.

So I got this tree I need to cut down in the little gap of land between my and my neighbour's houses. I borrowed a saw from a co-worker and I'm going to do it on Wednesday when I finally have a day off. I wake up today and my partner tells me that she came home today and found my neighbour drunkenly berating one of our housemates about how the tree is annoying and he's been trying to tell me to cut it down for years (he never talks to me). Both of them told him he needs to talk to me directly and eventually he wanders off.

I'm annoyed because I'm going to cut down this tree and he'll think that bugging them got the message to me and now he'll keep bugging them and never talking to me.

Neighbours! Bah!

I lost my (prescription) sunglasses. Rather sure I lost them at the theater, since I had them on walking there, took them off at the bar, and noticed they were gone when I walked out.

The ironic thing is that I've been slightly wanting new ones anyway, shape wise, but not like this.

Finally got to hang out with the kids I used to nanny for; we did an art day with stamp dominos and painting fidget spinners, etc. The girls are teenagers now. I started watching them when they were 2 and 3. And they are so insanely busy with synchro swim and school and other school and poo poo I rarely get to see them anymore. I used to watch them every Sunday for 2-4 years.

I did ask them yesterday if they were still cool with poo poo like movie days and art days, and they both insisted yes, because with Cowslips, all the junk food and fun times come. At their house, everything is super organic and healthy. I bring popcorn and candy and we bake cupcakes and poo poo. I mean, they're 13 and 14 but I know the time to do stuff with them and not look like a creeper is coming to an end, even with me being a family friend of their parents for over 10 years.

The main problem is, you always think you have enough time.

I bought new sunglasses, which were a lot cheaper than expected, and I like the frames I got.

The FWP is that I didn't notice the frame type I wanted to consider (round) until I was being rung up. Given that they were sealed behind glass, they were probably super expensive, but drat. :smith:

I ran out of toilet paper this morning. My options are "buy one single overpriced roll at the bodega on the way home" or "buy a couple of reasonably priced 12-packs at the grocery store & struggle dragging them home".

My other options are "stop off at my apartment & bring my shopping cart to the grocery store to make getting two 12-packs of toilet paper home" and "get only one 12-pack of toilet paper", but I don't feel like doing either. Once I'm inside my apartment after work, I'm in for the night.

Also, I ordered too many things from China and they are taking forever to cross the vast ocean.

Made a horrible mistake on Friday and ate a bunch of garlic rolls, then we had rice and teriyaki chicken at work. A few days and fiber pills later, my body has decided okay, it's all coming out....no it's not, yes it is, no, yes, noooooo get to the bathroom now and have the cats stare at you because they think you're passing a kidney stone.

I needed a place to stay tonight and am too cheap to pay for a campsite, I found a perfect spot but didn't have reception and I needed to check in with a friend. So I found another forestry road but it just went on and on and up and up and got rougher and rougher and sketchier and sketchier and now I'm about a kilometer above the highway on a lovely road next to a stream and stupidly googled 'can grizzlies break into vehicles' and I'm definitely going to get eaten by a grizzly tonight. If there's time I'll live post the process.

Also my lovely SUV bottomed out a few times and the exhaust is loose and making a loving racket and it has to last another ~7000km.
