TFW it's good morning at 8 PM. Time zones are a cruel mistress. I'm now at my local mosque listening to sermons and waiting for the group prayer and free food, then I'll go home and study for my exam (read: watch anime and sleep).

Oh man, today is a FULL day for me! My son has an archery tournament out of town, and then we are going to celebrate Tết at my best friends house.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Good luck to your kid in the tourney!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Drinking too much coffee and doomscrolling from my bed until I get my hands on another bag of weed later and can function (somewhat) properly again.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

This is kind of sad buddy :/ sounds like too much weed

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Lol I guess it is. And I'm absolutely addicted to weed. Anyone who says that isn't addictive hasn't experienced the lack of appetite, insomnia and general lack of will to live when you're a heavy smoker and you go without.

It's still probably cheaper therapy than actual therapists and pharmaceuticals though.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (3 children)

I hope you can feel better. I used to drink too much, I still drink but significantly less after my child was born. Makes me feel 100% better.

I've been there homie. Depending on my tolerance cbd can really help me slow down. It makes being less high way more manageable for me and therefore much easier to wean my usage down.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I should look into where I can get hold of CBD products. We don't really have dispensaries and stuff around here. It's legal to have but not to actually buy anywhere (or sell) lol. I think it is approved for medicinal use though.

Although you can get a grade of weed here that's basically a step away from being a hemp plant. As far as I know, that can of stuff is heavier on the CBD ratio of things. Doesn't taste great though.

[–] pebbles 2 points 4 months ago

There some solid online US companies if you can buy from them. I've really enjoyed outdoor from beleafer.com.

Going to home depot to help my kid do the free activity there.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Riding my bike. I am on tour (look up my older post) and I have only nature without much civilization right now so not much else to do.

But it is slow today, had a cold night and campsite is in valley so I didn't get sunshine till 9:30 and my gear is still wet.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

wishing you the best of luck, friend! stay safe.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

I hunt perky 'morning people'.

Just downloaded cyberpunk 2077 for the first time now that it's finally kinda finished. Have no idea what to expect. Hoping it's a good day.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

Taking my car into the dealership, but I have to drive an hour. And then going to have Korean BBQ with my wife.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I'm MOVING. I hate moving typically, but this is a fresh start for me and it feels so good. It's like taking the first step into the sun after a long cold winter. Proud of me and my journey to self respect.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Nice work! Remember, if you feel like you're running out of steam while doing the hard work of moving, it's okay to pause and take rest! Moments of rest are productive, contrary to much popular belief.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Lunch, plan child party, study/work, dinner, drink.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Annual town meeting today. It starts at 8:30 am and ends when the warrant articles have all been discussed and voted on. Hopefully it will go smoothly - last year it didn’t end until 6:00 pm, and a resident yelled at the school board chair so much that she quit on the spot!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Pop a low dose gummy, get into the creative spirit, and experiment a shit ton with electronic music and textured synths/processed samples.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Going for a walk in the country and a few drinks to relax

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Just landed in New Zealand. Today will be checking out Auckland

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Tomorrow I am going to organize the trash, prepare to take it out, and plan my meal schedule to account for some late-afternoon obligations in the following day. I will probably ride my bike along the lake and possibly lift weights for exercise. There are emails and letters to catch up on too.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Work on the chicken coop, work on the truck, and then see about hanging a solar Meshtastic node that I recently finished building.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Going to hopefully buy a new suit, and maybe a sports coat.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

I ended up buying a charcoal suit, a navy suit, and a sports coat I can dress up or down.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Try and go back to bed

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Gonna spend some time in the kitchen today. Tomorrow I'm making a homemade version of Flying Saucer's Bratzels for dinner, so today I'll be making the pretzel dough and freezing it so I can bake them tomorrow. I also have 4 bananas going brown so those need to become banana bread. Lastly, I've been saying I'll make tiramisu for two weeks, so I think it's probably time I get it made.

Other than that, I will probably play with my dog and take a nap. It's a cold and cloudy Saturday here so we're gonna enjoy the cozy time.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Survive until tomorrow.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

I'm planning to read my library books 😁

[–] CrustyCrinkles 2 points 4 months ago

I'm sick, called off work, I'll blow my nose, try reading, have a cup of tea, take a nap, blow my nose some more, eat a can of chicken noodle soup, and yeah thats probably it really.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I’ll be hopefully having a relaxing day drinking some variations of black tea with some creamy oat milk and looking for screen protectors made of glass for my little computer

[–] pebbles 1 points 4 months ago

That's sound great. You had me at tea, you sealed me in with computer.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

I'm hopefully gonna pick up my new bag and perfume from the post office in a few hours, and later tonight going to get together with some friends for board game club (although I think we're playing Heroes of might and magic 3 tonight)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

paperwork and cleaning up email with video streams in the background this moring. going to call a friend late afternoon or towards evening and will be relaxing at that point on.

[–] pebbles 1 points 4 months ago

I've written some music to go with one of my microscope videos. I'll be looking over it to make sure it feels good enough, then posting it.

Then I'm going to do some online training for work. I wasted a lot of time on Friday just goofing off and I need to have my training done on time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

I just had lunch, it's 13:18 here. I'm planning to bake some empanadas for the night.
