I wish I was joking That is horrifying. Also, I just found out that one of my favorite bands is playing on the second day of a festival I'm attending, which means that I can't get disgustingly wasted on the FIRST day of that festival.

I was going to put a computer desk, chair, and exercise equipment in my second bedroom, but after spending all my mornings this week dancing around the furniture-less room, I'm starting to think I kind of want to leave it empty. ...so where the hell am I going to put my computer desk, chair, and exercise equipment?

I moved into a nice apartment two months ago after living in a total shithole for nearly five years. Two things. 1) I keep running the shower water unnecessarily. When I was living in the shithole, I had to run the water for like five minutes before it (maybe) got warm enough to bathe in, so I'd use that time to do little stuff around the apartment, but now the water is hot immediately and it throws my morning routine off. 2) I keep losing stuff under the furniture/in the second bedroom.

I'm friendly with some of the customer service folks, and they sit all the way on the other side of the room, so the only time I can interact with them is when I'm waiting for the microwave/coffeemaker.

Similarly, ever since I got a job I love with a great salary, I feel like I can't commiserate with friends anymore. It's probably weird that my friendships were/are so heavily based on commiseration anyway though.

I'm reading a news article in my third language, and there's a thing in the picture associated with the article that I don't know the word for, and it's not strictly related to the article, and I don't want to use Google Translate because that's a bad way to learn, and none of my friends who speak that language are online so I can't ask them.

Brightman posted:I never carry cash but similarly I cannot find a wallet I like. I had a Mighty Wallet (Tyvek paper wallet), but it looked horrible after 3 years, so now I'm back to my old leather wallet. I had one of these because it was thin enough to fit into my jeans pocket (which is nothing to scoff at because women's jean pockets are downright infinitesimal). I replaced it with a standard bifold leather men's wallet, but it just isn't the same.

Even though my credit card and saving account are with Capital One, and my savings account is linked in such a way that I can pay my credit card bill with it, I can't have my cashback rewards deposited directly into my savings account. This is endlessly irksome.

The people at the McDonald's simply refused to acknowledge the existence of milk until really recently, and it drove me insane. The situation has improved -- however the exchanges have gone from Employee: What would you like? Me: Number 9, medium coffee, 3 milks, 3 sugars. Employee: *punches in 3 creams, 3 sugars* Me: [internal screaming] to Employee: What would you like? Me: Number 9, medium coffee, 3 milks, 3 sugars. Employee: Do you want milk or cream? Me: [internally "What the gently caress did I just say"-ing] Milk, please. Thanks. "Cream" and "milk" aren't even similar words, so why the gently caress should there be any confusion whatsoever?

I'm so accustomed to panicking over money that I don't know how to behave now. My life just suddenly became comfortable and I still have no idea what to do with that. I can pay my rent ahead of time instead of freaking out and deciding what not to pay on time every month. It's unfamiliar, strange territory. Hello, me from 22 months ago. I'm here to let you know that 22 months into the future, you're still not used to it! In all seriousness though, congratulations, and enjoy yourself! Contribute to your 401k, take vacations, go to baseball games, and develop (or re-develop) a video game habit. That's pretty much what I'm doing to "cope" with my no-longer-new situation.

There are two places in my delivery radius -- one that serves chicken fingers & fries with no honey mustard, and one that serves chicken fingers with honey mustard but you have to buy the fries separately. Also the place with honey mustard doesn't have any dessert options. This has been a hungover post.

[...] They're both that slight embarrassed to be seen with relatives in public phase, and it's somewhat awkward to suggest we go to the movies or have a game day when they're older and might be interested, or they might not want to hurt my feelings, it's hard to say. Even when I was in that phase, hanging out with my favorite uncle was always awesome. Then again, when I was 12, my favorite uncle was 24. Are you either the favorite uncle or young enough to seem cool to them?
