After a long work day yesterday I tried to rerecord commentary for an LP i was working on due to poor audio balance (THe commentary was completely drowned out by the game) but as I was about to save the better balance the software crashed taking 25 minutes of work away.

I made it up to him by getting some nice mother-of-pearl cufflinks for him to match the pearl bracelet I got mum (Pearl anniversary). He wore them to a wedding a few weeks later  Sorry about your b-day though dudette.

Not really measuring up to the most recent stuff I know but yesterday was really busy all day, and I work 12 hour shifts so I'm exhausted. Hopefully today will be quieter.

I have done a few LPs though of Haunted Mansion, which is on the archive here - http://lparchive.org/Haunted-Mansion/ and a Dog's Life LP that hasn't been archived yet but it's pending.

The large pipe just disconnected from my kitchen sink, so water just freefell all over the kitchen floor. I've contacted my landlord, so hopefully he'll be in touch in thje next few days to get this fixed, but tomorrow's plan is to go to the hardware store for a mop to get rid of the large amount of spilled water as I neglected to make sure I had one until now. Then, anything kitchen sink related can be done in the bathroom sink even though that'll be a pain.

Sweet Calamity posted:I just found out that the intermittent pain in my feet and back isn't actually normal--it's some sort of inflammatory arthritis. I'm only 27 and I already have spurs in my spine and am losing fine motor control in my hands. My toes hurt every day and I'm starting to freak out about it. Sorry about that. When I had mid-20s back pain it was just because I had been walking with Terrible Posture for 15 years without noticing, the doctor sent me to a PT who basically retaught me how to walk and gave me some exercises for the pain, and now I'm fine although still needing to do my exercises.

It's way too cold in my apartment even with the heating going full blast, just because of how cold it's been in general. I'm hoping the weather warms up soon.

I made a dumb mistake cooking tea - noticed one of the hobs was dirty while serving and went to check the grime with my fingers. Whoops! It was the hob I was using. Now my fingertips are sensitive as gently caress, just hope they don't blister.

Happily I was able to get my hand under cold water fast enough that the whitened damaged skin where I burnt myself didn't blister at all. It just stayed white for a bit and now seems to be breaking up to reveal my shiny new skin. I'm like a beautiful rattlesnake

I always enjoy the science behind that kind of thing, like the reason acids and alkalines are such fuckers - pure water is not stable, H2O is constantly breaking down into H+ and OH- ions which then recombine. In pure water they are equal in number, the pH being the amount of H+ ions present (after some complex logarithmic maths because the actual number is sooo small that it can only be expressed in scientific notation, and the post-math number is just easier to work with). They aren't a big deal because of the recombining, but in acids and alkalines the numbers are imbalanced - there are too many, or too few H+ ions to keep stable, so if in contact with any substance that the ions can bond with (like a hydrocarbon, ie MOST ORGANIC COMPOUNDs, particularly skin), you can assume that the ions are gonna get grabby due to wanting stability, which of course means the chemicals forming the tissues get all hosed up due to suddenly having an atom (or a few) taken away by the reaction making them get all grabby and starting a chain reaction. That last part is probably totally incorrect but it's an extrapolation my brain came up with.

Just had ludicrous amounts of snow today, forecast to continue, all because of Hurricane Emma coming to visit from Siberia. EMMA CAN YOU JUST GO HOME! gently caress! It's freezing. Also because of the snow half of the people at work went home early to avoid getting stuck, meaning we were understaffed, and also because of the snow more people were working from home so more tech support issues were coming in on top of that.

Picnic Princess posted:At work we had a sheet of paper shipped in a custom cut sized diaper box completely sealed with 2 layers of packing tape. It didn't matter about the paper being folded so it was impressive that someone took the effort to craft that instead of just using an envelope. You busted his head against the door jamb until he handed over the package?

I've started going to my local gym to try to get in better shape, and while it's fun and satisfying to push myself a little, it results in some nasty farts in the aftermath. Generally feels great to do it though.

My goddamn hip is acting up again. I've been needing to do stretches because my hip keeps spontaneously cramping as I used to have terrible posture, but thought that the gym would be enough to keep it limber. Apparently not. I had a bad cramp this morning and tried to stretch it out the usual way, but it looks like I'll need to do it multiple times as it's being stubborn today, which made the gym much harder. I was only able to do a kilometer on the treadmill, which isn't bad but when my leg is behaving I can do way better than that. Hopefully after work and a few more stretches it'll feel better.

Still losing weight, down to 85.0kg, but I've gained a kilogram of fat since my last weigh - better start eating better snacks, I think I've got complacent. Least I noticed before it got too bad.

I'm feeling little anxious because I'm trying something I haven't done in years - I've currently got a cake in the oven, and am really hoping it comes out well. It's gonna be a tense 10 minutes. When I tried to cut the cake horizontally the whole thing just fell to pieces. May have been too wet or something, or too dry.

My phone isn't turning on properly. It gets stuck at the 3 splash screen, then just turns off. Hoping it's only a problem with the battery, gonna see the phone shop about it later.

I tried to bake a cake for a friends party tonight, and it came out bad again despite using a different recipe. Still came out too hard, and a minute earlier it wasn't cooked through so I think it didn't have the right consistency. It was uneven.

Picnic Princess posted:Our normal is 23C in summer, last summer it was 30-35C for over a month and one day it got to 40C. No rain at all. And thick smoke the whole time. I had really bad lungs and temperature regulation problems last year and had to leave work early almost every day because of how sick it made me. Watch it happen again this summer. My lungs and body temp are better this year, but this evening I've already been having a hard time. England heat feels more severe because unlike the US, we're a small island, which means used to colder weather. As a result, while the US is build to regulate temperature in both extremes, England isn't used to warmer weather, so the buildings are built to trap heat because of the usually cold climate. Hell, we are on the same latitude at Canada and Russia, the current around the southwest of us is the only reason we aren't frozen over most of the year like those two are known for getting, so trapping what little heat we got was the priority. Everything is insulated and doubleglazed to hell as a result, so when it gets hot it really gets hot.
