I love some good food porn, I love when people post well made food content on IG or whatever that doesn’t have any stupid gimmicks like throwing food at the cutting board as hard as they can in slam cuts, just a really well made dish that looks great. Most of my really good looking food goes un-photographed because my three year old SE camera can make anything look like washed out poop from a butt Maybe I’ll go steal my dad’s DSLR he bought ages ago and collects dust in his closet

Also not looking forward to going back to work tomorrow since not only is it our bi-weekly payroll that we run Tuesdays which almost always runs us out to 6:00PM because of how much poo poo there is to do, but we were off today so we’ll have to tack on the four groups that normally go on Mondays, so it’s probably going to be an 8:00PM night at minimum. But I spent most of the day drinking a leftover bottle of NYE wine and doing GT7 licenses and races, and finally forced myself to hog out the old small deadbolt hole on the front door so I could install the new deadbolt and knob set I bought like three months ago, and threw a matching one on the garage entry door too. It sucked!

Working from home on a slow work day is great because when you get that random mid-day burst of motivation to get your poo poo together you can get up and clean instead of convincing yourself you’re gonna do it when you get home all day at the office, and then you get home and feel like a tired slug and don’t do any of it

I did the lunchtime beer while working thing a few times, and turns out lunchtime beers make me REAL fuckin sleepy when I’m home alone working so yeah we don’t do that now As a Wisconsinite I will continue drinking beers for those strong enough to choose not to, but I’m gonna try to go back to keeping it to weekends again. Haven’t had a drink all week, been drinking plenty of water (I am TERRIBLE at being hydrated) and eating health conscious meals this week, but that still didn’t stop me from feeling hungover when I woke up this morning

I’m still trying to get along with the basic older induction cooktop that came with my condo, I miss the gas. I don’t dare go over medium unless I’m boiling water, and even slightly less than medium will have the seasoning on my cast iron billowing smoke throughout the condo in like 4 minutes, but lower than that and you cant quite get enough heat into the cast iron Also my Cuisinart stainless high wall pan is not completely flat on the bottom and I never noticed until moving to this induction flat top and now it wobbles all over

I’m excited for The Last of Us on HBO this Sunday I think. It’s been getting great reviews which I usually take with a grain of salt, but Pedro Pascal and the dude responsible for Chernobyl on HBO, so Also we have Brookfield Square, Southridge Mall, and Mayfair Mall all within ~12 miles of each other and all three are always super busy so idk what that’s about. Our Sears turned into a movie theater and some weird bumper car-polo arena thing?

Pretend I posted a picture of my dream bright orange ‘72 Datsun 240Z that I most certainly drove more than once and definitely did not sell to pointlessly go move two hours away to live with a manipulative girlfriend and to save a meaningless relationship that failed in six months anyway. I want that car back!!! Anyway, I got my fantasy football revenge last night. We played poker and I sat next to the guy that kicked me out of the championship game and he won the first straight five hands and was up a ton on everyone. His famous last words were leaning over to me and whispering “Thanks for all the chips T-Square” as we were upping the ante back and forth with a couple of other players, and then I immediately won the hand and continued to take his money until he was out

Roundabout chat: We came up to a roundabout that’s been there for at least a decade, and they’ve been in use/common in our area for longer, and some guy was reversing down the road towards me against the flow of traffic, stopped, hung out for a second, then gassed it and turned left onto the roundabout and made it 1/4 of the way around before going “hmm…no that doesn’t seem right…” and stopping. By that time I was through and gone, but unless they got their driver’s license ten minutes beforehand, how do you not know how to use one THAT badly Waffle House chat: In honor of the last round of Waffle House chat I made my own version of pecan waffles for breakfast the other week and it was great E: Timby posted:Judging from how I've seen some co-workers come in on Monday mornings, seems accurate.
