I'm going to a nearby convention for work for most of this week. The convention itself isn't terribly interesting, but it has been nice to catch up with old friends and meet some new people.
Looking ahead, this is my first proper weekend off in over a year, so I'm looking around for a good destination for a weekend trip (something I'm told normal people do!). Any recommendations within a 4-5 hour drive from downtown Chicago?
I’m existing been stressing cause work project is wrapping up. I need a vacation.
Sounds like you do! What can you do to make it happen?
pretty alright! finished my last exam yesterday, and will be needing to find a job for the summer between semesters, so i’ve been a bit stressed and nervous for needing to do that and just the future generally. i have one atm, but i don’t think i’ll be able to get as many hours as i’d like, and tuition isn’t going to pay itself 🙃
Congrats on making it through the exams and good luck for finding the summer job!
I gave my boots to the local cobbler (one of two in a 30 km radius) because the sole is coming off and getting hole-y. This guy, whom I assumed would have maybe a couple repair jobs every few months, is completely overbooked and thus I'll see my boots in maybe five weeks or so again. But, honestly, I'm glad for him that his little shop is booming (relatively speaking)
incredibly sleepy as well. I was up until 3 AM last night, but I installed my first pi-hole on a raspberry pi and fixed the router when it threw a fit, so I'm very proud of myself!
currently discussing with my much more technologically wise cousin on getting a Jellyfin server set up for my music and shows to share with my queer platonic partner. and I just got back from grocery shopping, which I desperately needed to do but just Could Not get myself to do. but I did! in addition to a 2 and a half mile walk.
I'm very tired but things are okay right now. probably going to play some video games before bed.
I hope everyone else is doing well!
My week is going well.
I was planning to attend the local pride parade and festival yesterday, but didn't go due to sheer laziness lol. So I got stoned and watched YouTube with my boyfriend instead.
Speaking of my boyfriend, three of his Horror Bishoujo figurines came in the mail from Japan today (Chucky, Freddy Krueger, and Edward Scissorhands). He's excited to put them up and I'm happy for him.
Nice!
