Why do I not have a pumpkin muffin?

What is even happening?

Hi Kat. How are you? How are Grace and Noah doing?

I've gone all the way through BURN IT ALL DOWN to plzgivemeayurtnowthx and am terrified of settling into apathy due to an excessive case of the can't evens.

I've been tweeting Dark Willow gifs, because they speak to me, and they speak for me (which I need because my words are broken), while hopefully providing me with some measure of plausible deniability, every time one of my friends suggests burning it all down.

Which of course we would never do.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I do have a piece of good news from the weekend: I don't know how many of you play HQ, but it's this live online trivia thing, where the winners get a share of (usually) $5,000. I've won a couple of times and never got more than $.25. On Saturday, I won $11!! So that was exciting. I don't know how you get the money out of the app, but it was still pretty exciting. (PS: If you want to get the app and try it, using my referral code jh1226 will get me a free life.)

I defeated apathy this morning! I made it to work on time, and I even made my bed and cleaned up the dishes after breakfast!

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

That is super-adulting, Tom, especially for a Monday morning.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Punishingly Intricate

Woohoo, Jesse!! I still have only won 59 cents. I think after you have $20 in your account they will paypal it to you?

So that day may never come, but in the meantime, I'm patting myself on the back!

Coding and Sleeping

Everyone has been so productive. I didn't get much down around the house this weekend. I went to the grocery store, cooked a couple of dinners, did a couple loads of dishes, and washed the sheets (well, my wife started the load, I just dried and put them back on). I also did some work for my wife's business. The rest of the weekend I spent working on work. I think I've worked 40 hours since touching down at the airport Wednesday night at midnight.

I would like to get the new site finished, but I've been crazy busy. I did start watching Black Panther while I exercised and so far it's pretty great. Also indulged in an hour of woodworking and make a really nice joint. Nice for me anyhow.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

And, my mother continues to demonstrate why I don't tell her stuff. I posted a thread of someone saying, "I was in this situation where I might have been raped, but I wasn't, because the guy that I was with wasn't a rapist," and she responded by saying that the person should have shown better judgment. Which is exactly how I'd expected she'd respond. (So I said that plenty of people would say that it was showing poor judgment to set up a tent next to two guys that you just met, at a campground in the middle of nowhere -- that's how she and my dad met.)
