Work unfortunately as my investment in my powerball retirement fund did not pay off much. $4 to reinvest for tonight.

I am starting a new job today. I was at my previous gig for more than 8 years.
I was gonna write that I feel "excited" or "nervous" but really I kind of feel... Nothing about it.

Not much. Gotta do real person stuff today, like putting my foot up the ass of my college financial aid office

The dogs are gonna pee somewhere, and I'd rather that be out of doors. Gets you up like nothing else

Hey, we just did that, too! Congratulations!

I would pit the sound of my dog about to vomit against my fire alarm for my reaction time any day.

Out of bed for work but groggier and angrier than usual because the apartment building’s fire alarm went off twice yesterday - one at 2pm and one at 3am, and we had to pack up the animals to evacuate both times. Management never tells us what happened and it’s absurd
BlueXTC t1_j6htqc6 wrote
That alarm starts going off at 4 am at this house. It gets louder the closer it gets to the clock alarm at 5am.

My wife brought me coffee in bed. Getting up to drop the kids off at the pool.

Gotta work, otherwise I’d be taking it easy today. Got a lunch meeting, but at least that means lunch is paid for.

I can't imagine doing that. I would change my mind every 10 minutes and then even after it was built would say "should we have.....?" Kudos to you taking it on!

Gotta ping my coworkers and see who all watched The Last of Us. Nick Offerman better get an Emmy for that performance.

Work until 4:59 PM. I don’t think my new job understands how white collar gigs work. How are you going to prove your value if you’re not putting in extra hours reading Reddit?

I did not expect that as I haven’t played the game but fuck man, heart wrenching.

What’s funny is that this episode actually deviates from the game and fleshes out these two characters.

I slept in the recliner last night, and not well. Something kept me up most of the night but I don't know what. I'm getting back to my normal weekly schedule: get kiddo up, drive him to school, take Boaty to preschool.

My cat has been on a hunger strike since I switched his kibble. Now that I switched back, he has a sparkly litter box, and a cat nip toy, he’s dejected. He really likes to pout and now he’s out of reasons to scream into the void.

Not really sure. Money I guess. Pissed off that my team got screwed last night. Hate Mahomes and the annoying Chiefs fans. Hate that the refs blew it. Going to be in a bad mood for about a week.

Definitely the puppy barking. The cats are trained to wait until one of us gets up before they start asking for wet food.

Half a shift at work today. Only 4 hours, and after working Sunday. Fingers crossed it's a slow day.

We have two cats and have gotten automatic feeders that go off at exactly the same time in different rooms, so they just bolt to their assigned spot and I don’t have to do a dang thing, it’s amazing.

Dog sitting a 3rd dog along with my 2. They all went out, then guest dog came back in and peed in the hallway.

Slept from ~4pm until 10:30pm last night, then had a small snack and went back to sleep. I’ve been painfully tired lately but maybe that’s the difference between working a job where I’m not just twiddling my thumbs all day.
Anyway, told myself last night that today could be a Starbucks day since I technically didn’t buy any this weekend (my mom did, for me). There is no temperature in which I will not drink my coffee iced.

If you have a ps4/5, You really should, both 1 and 2. Great games. I played 1 when it launched just about a decade ago.

Same here. I went from getting clawed in the face every morning by a large, hungry cat to now watching him sit patiently by his feeder about an hour before it's supposed to go off. Life changing. Now both cats have the same feeder and they just go to their spots.

My toddler managed to keep me out of bed most of the night by constantly waking up and making a ruckus through the house. Finally got him to settle down by cuddling next to him until he asked me to go sleep on the recliner next to his bed.
His sleep regressions in the past year have been more difficult for me personally than anytime when he was a newborn.

Automatic feeders saved my sleep schedule. Like clockwork, everyday at 5 am my cats would riot until they got their scoop of food. I swear they can read my clock.

Nothing. I woke up at 3 am with chills and leg pain so it’s a day of bed rest for me. Thought I might have to order food since I’m probably not gonna be cooking today.
