Anything fun or interesting going on? Relaxing, doing chores, listening to music, playing games, reading? I wanna hear about it!
Hanging out with my goblin cat and trying to enjoy my time off without letting the anxiety of being unemployed set in.

Im working on a music video for some pop star I’ve never heard of and can’t remember the name of. But they have a pretty massive actress involved so its big as far as music videos go. Long ass day though and it’s hotter’n’hell out
Well, this morning, I’m nursing a hangover, and learning an important lesson about making bulk cocktails: water them down, because there’s no need for ice if you keep bulk cocktails refrigerated. Also, the pumpkin spice espresso martini recipe I’d made several months ago came out annoyingly viscous.
But it was delicious otherwise, and I’d ended up drinking an entire bottle on my own last night. Luckily it was only ~50 proof.
Have to do a release of Summit. And a lot of cleaning around the house.
Chores chores chores. Changed and washed the bedsheets, all the kitty litter, garden, saw a small ground mammal that was not a squirrel, worried about a friend, ate lunch, planned dinner, did husband put the blanket in the dryer? I suspect not. I should ask.
Watched Attack of the Clones today
Not much this morning. Just on my laptop with a coffee next to me downtown. For this afternoon though, probably just getting back into language learning to keep my brain active.
This evening though, gonna do a run by the lake shore. I’m also gonna message a bunch of friends I haven’t talked to in a long time, because I have been pretty bad at reaching out and hanging out with people this year.
Made baked potatoes and antipasto salad while family did a few chores. Played Wingspan. Now playing Sushi Go. Will do an art later. Only thing that would make the day better is if it was cool enough to go for a walk.
I’ve been looking for more 5 player board games for my weekly board game club, and I was looking at Wingspan! How is it, is it worth picking up?
It’s our all time favorite game, highly recommend.
Waiting patiently for new Vans to arrive.
Edit: Also playing Ground Zero. It’s an indie survival horror game.
I washed my dishes! Life has been grim lately. They had stacked up. Kitchen is clean now. And maybe I feel a bit better.

LOL. Thanks! :]
It wasn’t that tall. Only about a month. But it was a lot.
It’s been a month since my bro and his gal came over for BBQ. I think that’s what the mold was eating.
Making music. I’ve started working on a new EP, probably around 5 songs, that I plan to release within 3 months.
Oh that’s rad as hell! I just started learning music production somewhat recently, it’s so hard but so much fun. I hope your EP comes together smoothly, I’m sure it’ll turn out badass. What genre?
Thanks! Yeah, even I am still continuously learning new things. In fact, I recently reset my mixing/mastering workflow and started fresh, because of new stuff I learned. I do different genres, but this time it’s gonna be a prog industrial metal instrumental album.
I’d love to hear it when it’s ready!
Made the mistake of trying Deadlock. It’s invite only right now but there are communities that will let you friend someone for an invite. Anyway I figured it was good since it’s Valve. And uh unfortunately I was right. I haven’t slept properly in a week
Well, it’s bed time here, but in the morning I’m going on a road trip to get another preventative rabies shot. I didn’t build up enough antibodies from the 3 shots last fall to work with raccoons and foxes and such, so I’m giving it another try.
It’s a 5-6 hour round trip, but another wildlife center is running a discount program, so it saves me $500 or so, even with gas taken into account.
That’s a fantastic discount, my goodness. I hope this time is the one that lets you work with them!
It is! The shots are normally around 600 to 800 each, and you need 3, typically.
The clinic out there does a spring and fall event so new volunteers and anyone needing a booster can come all on the same days. One vial of vaccine holds enough to do 10 people, so instead of giving one shot and tossing the rest as would happen if we all got shots randomly, they schedule us to all come on the same days, and pass the savings on to us, as most of us aren’t paid to do this work.
I tested positive for antibodies, but not high enough to safely work with rabies vector animals, so I’m due for a booster. I believe we need to get a titer every 2 years to show we still have proper antibody levels to keep working with them.
So it’s a bit of a hassle, but we have so many cute critters that I can’t work with without doing it!

Meatball the groundhog

A tiny baby fox they brought back to life after it passed. It’s big now, and still just as adorable!
They’re too adorable! That’s so cool.
I’m no hypocrite, I’ll chime in. I woke up at 1 am this morning and couldn’t get back to sleep because my body hates me apparently. The day was pretty good other than that though, I made a run to the dump that I’d been meaning to do for months, got my hair dyed, and had lunch at a local cafe (sandwich with a yuba patty, sesame slaw, and peanut sauce. It was so good). Now I’m just chilling, I got cider and I’m listening to records (Yesterwynde by Nightwish right now). I’m gonna sleep well tonight I think!

I do have some Nightwish, but hadn’t been aware that this was out.
Norway’s constitutional day today, so started the off at 8 with canon shots from the castle where the royal families resided in the 11-1200’s followed by a speech from the mayor, then a parade through the city for the annual retelling of some of the towns heroes and legends from throughout history, and then hotdogs and ice cream and coffee in the sun before going home for breakfast and cake, and then the children’s parade through the streets from home just before 13. Now it’s gaming time while I listen to the party of the celebrating russ next door in the background.
Same. Gratulerer med dagen.
Gratulerer med dagen 🇧🇻
