holy shit October
Happy Halloween the 5th!

I don't know what to put here. Say hi to Kevin.

First of all: having DW be permanently blocked on my work laptop has really done some heavy lifting in terms of discouraging me from making entries. There are things I want to write about, yes, but keep pushing them further and further back. Office time used to be entry time, because home time was video game time or TV time or exercise time or friend time or book time or— you get the idea. Hence the prolonged drop-off. I’m determined to get back into things, though!

This is something I’ve had in the back of my mind for the past year or so, which roughly coincides with my seventh year as a Redditor.

Why I might be done with Reddit!

( justice for cbat )

tl;dr — Seriously, read The Left-Right Game if you haven't.

I had my housewarming get together this past weekend. My friends made me a very pretty card and gave me a $175 gift card to Ikea, which was incredibly sweet of them. (We also went on an adventure to steal a garbage table.) I am definitely using the gift card to buy a big bookshelf.

Work has been very boring these past two weeks. I haven’t had a lot to do. Some days, I’ve finished all my work for the day around 9:30 / 10 am and then had to get through the rest of the day. Sadly, this boredom has only been exacerbated by our new security software/VPN blocking a ton of websites I use to entertain myself throughout the day, such as Pinterest and Dreamwidth. I think that’s part of the reason I’ve been a bit quiet—not having DW in the palm of my hand when I would usually use the office downtime to post means I’m staring at Reddit instead. And home time is video game time! (No, I did not play any of my poll options, nor did I finally play Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 for the definite totally real first time since I’ve never played it before actually. Instead, I am on my third consecutive Dishonored 2 replay of the month.)

Signed up for three classes for the fall semester. Hopefully I don’t die; I hope my new thyroid medication and my new ability to not fall asleep all the time forever means I can hack it. One of those classes is online and self-paced, fortunately. I am increasingly eager to finish this program so I can leave my job and the construction industry behind forever. Hopefully only another year and a half!

Chemistry kicked my ass, but I’m not worried about it. I got an A in the lab portion and passed all my tests. My grade won’t be amazing, but I can live with it.

Two months after leaving my umbrella on the Skytrain, I finally bought a new one. It is black and covered in fake math equations.

Pretty exhausted right now, and it’s made me largely not want to talk. Between social things and moving and home buying and finishing the summer semester, I need to be a defensive pillbug and curl up into a little ball and roll away. Maybe I will hermit completely until September.


Also, I saw Weapons!

Turns out buying a home and moving in is a lot of work
Also, fucking chemistry is kicking my ass.

Here's a thing. I love you. ♥

I have a galaxy of my very own!
