I always have a good day at work by telling myself I won the day. I simply change the rules at the end of each day to make myself the winner. Today I won a 3 in one fucking baller blitz by taking the first patient, the last patient, and the most patients overall.

Dear mom, please donate this crap I don’t want, because I can’t be bothered. (I did actually miss a couple of the “borrowed” shirts.)

The bf and I had donuts for breakfast. I suggested we eat healthier for lunch, so he picked a spot we love with jerk chicken quesadillas. I don’t think we have the same definition of healthy, but I’m down.

I still have an old Xbox just to play my dvd of Rudy the night before the season opener. Tradition!

Bug broke up with her bf. She was direct and calm. She didn’t cry. She handled that shit like a business manager firing an employee. Like, we put you on a PIP, and you continued to not meet the standards we outlined for your employment, and we have decided this is just not the right job for you.

Spent my free day doing chores. Finally cleaned out Poozer’s closet. (He’s been living on his own for a year, but I was being emotional about doing this.) Found all my spoons, 3 cups, 13 vapes, at least 30 dirty socks, an empty wine cooler bottle, and two empty condom boxes. He’s totally grounded.

Bug just texted me that she’s ready to break up with her bf, a disabled person, with no family who gives a shit, so he’s been living with us. I gotta find him a home quickly, but also gotta talk to her about maybe waiting to break up with him til I find somewhere for him to go?Fuck sakes.

Came home this morning to the messy remnants of a party. Letting Bug and her hungover friends sleep while I clean it up. She’ll find out when she wakes up that she gets to clean the grout for the whole bottom floor this week. I’ve been waiting for an opportunity like this. 👍

I did not pay any attention to the shaded parts, until I completed the puzzle.

The NYT crossword was less Thursday than normal today, and I appreciated that.

I certainly don’t give a rip about this holiday, anymore…but there are ribs and baked beans and watermelon salad on the table today, and I’m not gonna pass that up.

I love Bright Eyes. Conor Oberst had a band mate in Mystic Valley, Taylor Hollingsworth, who has a wonderfully weird voice and lives/plays in my city. Just a tidbit. His 2000’s stuff is good, especially the albums with his wife.

Most traumatic 4 minutes of my life just occurred. Still trying to get the ticker back to a normal rate.

Taking the scenic route home. Been two hours since we passed a coffee shop and I’m starting to become slightly unglued.

We did a “brunch near me” search and found this artery clogging gem. D’shit is legit.

Love it! We try to go off the grid for long weekends every few months. This was a quick trip, but still wanted privacy and nature.

This is why I’d rather Airbnb than hotel. Two landscape artists own this property. 20 acres with a guest house and a couple of friendly dogs, a pool to ourselves, lots of cool sculptures and lovely botanicals around.

Get yerself a Jake. You’ll be right in the middle of a tour you paid good money for, decide the creepy church portion is way too much, and he will absolutely walk right outta that bullshit by your side. He’ll even hold the door for you.

Forcing Bug and her bf to listen to 90’s alt pop on the road trip way to Tupelo and they are adding “classics” to their Spotify playlists. Lol.

I can’t be the only one who still likes Biden for two distinct reasons. A) he’s actually done some good shit while in office and B) Obama still talks to him.

Tomorrow, the bf and I are meeting my dad in Tupelo to drop off Bug and her bf for a week with Grandpa. After the drop, we’re gonna stay at an airbnb in a private botanical garden, go see where Elvis was born, and do some shopping, before returning home Sunday. Mini vacays are nice.

Ok, idk why it took me til today to look for the NYT puzzle reddit. I can rant there with other psychopaths about rebus symmetry.

Today’s NYT crossword can suck my big hairy balls. Go all the way into my soul to find them and then suck them til they’re bald. I hate Thursdays. I put the wrong of the doubles in each spot and had to go back and redo the damn rim and all the magical colorization can’t make me un-angry.

You’re doing great! Stick to the plan. You’re preparing them for real life. Better to learn the earning lesson as kids than adults. Sometimes it takes time for those lessons we think should be easy ones. Parenting is a damn marathon. Hang in there.

We need a more descriptive mattress firmness scale. I wanna know from “no physical support, but plenty of love, as you sink into a womb of fluff” to “as close as you can get to sleeping on concrete, without being on the sidewalk.” My sanity and back muscles don’t have time for mattress trials.

So…a friend of a friend uses it and says that it never fails and is always super fast and he supposedly does government contracting which warrants a ton of devices running on the same system daily. He paid $1k to purchase the home set up and like $50/month. I’m thinking about it for my house.

Would it be some old person shit for me to buy a shower chair? I just want one so I can scald myself longer after work and get some extra time in which nobody bothers me. (Standing while scalding is not very relaxing after about 10 minutes.) I just answered my own fucking question.

Today I chatted with a patient about an arena being built where a defunct hospital sits in B’ham. The surrounding neighborhood is getting bought out for parking. I sang the Big Yellow Taxi chorus, and he had never heard the song. It’s been covered and sampled a million times! He’s my age!

That’s weird. IDK. Not that you asked, but I cover them + abt an inch over in hot water, sides lightly touching for even heat distribution, add a TBSP vinegar, boil 10 min, go straight into ice water til they are cool, then tap til they’re crackled all over, and start peeling at the fat end.

Do you add a TBSP of vinegar to the water, pre-boil? It helps. I also start with hot tap water. No idea why. Just the way my grandma did it.

Yikes! Ice and elevate for the knotty bruise. Have you tried an ankle brace? Also, as a fellow old, I’ve been using voltaren gel (diclofenac) on my sore joints and muscles. It’s OTC now and really helps.
