I live next to a sports stadium and I'm pretty sure I heard a loud roar last Saturday. At the time I thought it sounded more like relief than a goal being scored. I also live next to a primary school and during the week heard a big happy cheer from there.
Good to hear. |

Feel like I actually got some reasonable amount of sleep last night for a change.
Otherwise, no real difference. Bit tired of living at work though.

Well don't move to a large [democrat] city in America before the election. Another columnist [liberal] has promised more violence if Joe loses.

Don't move to a large republican city either...crime is no respecter of political affiliation.
Damn I just cannot believe how busy I've been...seems like all I do these days is put out fires (metaphorical ones) and everything is burning.

I hope that's a good thing.
There's been so much turnover at work that it's getting kind of absurd. Everyone is scared they're going to be next. One guy was fired because a crazy person threw him through a plate glass window. Technically he was fired for failing to de-escalate the situation. Crazy guy was on PCP or something. Good luck de-escalating that.
Everyone is stressed to the point where they're ready to snap. I've seen people who can usually keep their cool in almost any situation break down and cry over nothing.
This year sucks. _________________

Well spent the day tidying up my study. Its been used as a sick-room for my cat for the last 4 months and looked it.
It's still being used for that, although she is almost better now (I mean, she is better, she just not walking well enough for me to be willing to let her out yet), but at least there's a semblance of order again.

I try. Tropical storm hit the gulf. Flooded Galveston and Surfside that I know of so far. We are getting rain here. _________________ life's not a paragraph

Damn I'm feeling tired. Work is just not quitting and I can barely drag myself up these days.
On the plus side, I had my new RAM, SSd and AIO liquid cooler arrive, but I will put off trying to install it until the weekend when I can do it during the day and not risk leaving my machine in pieces overnight (for work), or making a mistake because I'm tired and frying everything.

I won't be back for at least another 5 weeks at the minimum. So I wasn't eligible. And I don't want it. Way too.much work. I want to be the power behind the throne. _________________ life's not a paragraph

Ooh, nice. I had planned to do some upgrades before the next WoW expac (next month), but I'd also expected for the pandemic to be over and to have more job security by then. Yeah.
I really want to transition to a SSD at least. I know my graphics card is below the recommended, but it has been for the last two expansions and I've managed. (Probably a situation where I'm just used to it and if I saw what it should be I wouldn't be able to go back.) _________________
