watched a bunch of shows. finished black mirror. vacuumed the floor and thinking of how to make an analytics newsletter

Trying to figure out how to stain the maple cabinets I built. It's been harder than anticipated... But progress is progress. One step at a time and all that.

Well, for me the weekend is the start of my (very weird) weekly work schedule so my weekend is pretty much just ending.

However, thanks to a recommendation at the Star Trek community I picked up one of the Star Trek books for my Kindle since they're on sale so I'll definitely be reading that!

Additionally, I updated my Minecraft server to 1.20.1 and nuked the world since I hadn't really progressed at all (the TL;DR of that situation is that I've been "working" on that server since 2021 - it was intended to be a new public server that my ex and I were going to create, but I just haven't had a lot of time or motivation to do so after we split up) so I'll probably be giving that a go!

I finally got a refill for an important medication I'm on, it was three weeks late and has been stressing me out so I'm relieved over that. There are plenty of other stressors going on as of lately, but that was a pretty big one.

Other than that, for better or for worse I'll just be going wherever the days take me!

Two TTRPG sessions (Dungeons & Dragons in person, Call of Cthulhu online), going swimming at the public pool, working some more on my translations of German folk tales.

Planting grapes and irises, then going to the local Italian restaurant for dinner. Tomorrow, picking up hay for the donkeys. Playing Valheim between all that. 😆

What am I doing? Anything but pooping. But seriously, apparently I'm going to be eating a lot of protein and minimal fiber...

It's my birthday on Sunday but due to my previous landlord fucking me over I am very broke this paycheck so no real plans other than stay home and be with my wife.

Nothing is planned because I was almost sure my wife would be in labor by now. So, I guess just more sitting around and waiting.

Halfway through finishing my basement, running electric tomorrow, then if I finish in time got tickets to a show.

Going to a concert tomorrow night, and then reading and spending some time with my newborn. Should be a good rainy weekend.

Gotta finish planning the D&D session I'm running on Sunday

We will be doing stuff around the house. One kids has a birthday party in the afternoon. Start meal planning for next week so we can do our big shop on Sunday.

Our weather has been all over the place, so If it cools off probably a long bike ride with my wife. It it gets hot again then hopefully planting our butts in one of the glacial runoff rivers to stay cool.

There’s an art festival I’m planning to go to tomorrow. It’s horror, occult, and oddities type of stuff, so it should be fun. Then maybe hanging out with a friend visiting from out of town.

might go to the gym tomorrow, but honestly hoping i don't unless i feel significantly better. past 2.5 weeks have been rough on my mind and body; feeling super scarily depressed and drained and exhausted, had a massive breakdown this morning. just hoping i can relax as much as possible and be gentle with myself. i know some may say the gym is good for mental health and all that, but for me it can be draining, especially if i'm already feeling low. and with my current level of dysregulation, i might feel more socially anxious/paranoid. if i do feel well enough, though, it'll be good to get back on track with that.

if any linux users would like to try and make me feel better - whyyyyyyyyyyy won't debian 12 boot, grub keeps whining about like 14 failed sectors????? but my ssd should be okay, it's only a year old and macos (mid-2012 macbook pro) is running fine on the other partition???????? i keep reinstalling linux and it just does not care, i tried update-grub and it does not caaaarrreeeeeeeeee

I'm on annual leave all next week so I have a very long weekend!

I'm planning to stay up late playing Railway Empire 2, lie in when I can, go for walks along the seafront when it isn't too hot, and spend the rest of the time hiding from the sun playing DRG with my wife

Got home kat was looking for this cricket that was chirping in my rose bush...didn't find it so will try again tomorrow...

I’m getting on a plane in a few hours and flying home after a week in Jamaica for my honeymoon.

Then tomorrow my wife and I are plopping our asses on the couch and not moving for the rest of the day.

Sunday now but yesterday I went into town and saw a 4k restored version of The Wicker Man with Edward Woodward & Christopher Lee. It was a lot funnier than I remember especially the scene with Brit Ekland trying to tempt Edward Woodward in the next room!

Today will be fiddling about with my modular and maybe have a go at starting to code a tool for work

I built a desktop for VR, just received my Index in the mail, and have spent the last 3 days desperately trying to install Windows.

Nothing I’ve tried has worked and my computer confidence is shattered lol. I may get high and try again. Maybe my wife helps. She’s great at being calm.

May check out some vinyl bars around me! I'd just read about these recently and am curious to check them out

studying for my final exam on monday! one of my least favourite classes i’ve had, but it is what it is

Three hours of community radio broadcasting from home, then maybe finish cleaning the caravan, put some washing on while the sun is hitting the solar panels, maybe a trip to bunnings to get some root killer for the sewer, and drop a dead dishwasher to the recycling place.
