Surely something good happened to you today

My favorite son and I went to a movie (the latest Godzilla x King Kong) and then lunch and shopping.

 

put some music and candles on and built a lego orchid set

 

I had breakfast with my dad. I got caught up on DSC. And spoke to Randi on the phone.

So it was a good day.

 

I started my day at 4 AM, having only slept a few hours. I staayed awake until noon, but then went back to sleep, and got up shortly after 4 PM. So all around, its been a decent day.

 

Got to talk to Mom today; that always makes me feel better

Long, boring day at work, but kept my stats up .

 

Not me, but my niece is going to be doing her first DJ gig at a rave this weekend. She's not the headliner, she's third on the bill, but it's a start.

 

My taxes are done before the deadline and electronically sent.

 

I found out I’m still paying insurance for my boiler on my old address, in which I haven’t lived in since August 2021. I immediately called to cancel it and asked I could have the money back, they said yes. I’m grateful, it’s almost 150€ I can certainly use the money

 

I was able to use my webcam yesterday, to create some new content for Youtube, which I hadn't done in several years. The two biggest reasons for this, were simply that I thought my webcam was broken, and also I couldn't really think of anything I specifically wanted to address. But if anyone is curious about my content in general, they can find it right here...

Good luck to her and hope she has a blast. Do you know any of the tracks she will be spinning? I've never done a live DJ set but used to make them at home and oldskool rave was my favourite genre.

 

Ate Chicken Cordon Bleu.

 

Got perfect validity scores at work today.

 

That's good news, hopefully it makes you feel a bit more secure

 

Had a really nice bus ride home!!! <3
It was the first day back for summer term, and the library is now open till 1900 so i stayed doing some maths and physics. Got to get the bus home just before the sun set, the bus was quiet, and the bus driver was a really sweet woman in her 70s <33 she was the best. Got to see the animal/crop fields and stuff because of where i live idk just a really good first day back, helped with exam stress tbh

 

Was mowing the lawn, saw a snake, and did NOT panic!

(srsly, I think it was dead, 'cos it didn't move when I got near it)

Edit: I'm drinking a Smores-flavored beer right now. It's actually really good. Not as weird as I thought it would be.

 

I used to enjoy the 45 minute bus ride to work known as the scenic route because it passed through lots of Cotswold hamlets between Stroud and Dursley. The highlight of the journey was passing a dairy farm in Eastington and seeing all the cows patiently queuing for the morning milking.

 

I accidentally discovered something that will make my parts update process a little faster going forward. (Which actually helped balance out today, as a few things actually slowed my progress.) The real test will be seeing if it works next time, but given how much it helped catch me up today, I think I can actually shave off even more time than before, making it even more efficient.

I believe even Seven of Nine would be proud.

 

My second daughter and her family drove a long way to visit me. We went out for lunch, shopped for a few plants, my granddaughter made me a funny birthday card, (it's tomorrow), and they gave me a gift card. Hey! Why am I still here? I could be buying books!

 

Happy Early Birthday!
