I'm taking some awfully boring legally required training about chemical hazards and learned that my state has actual regulations about how to compute time. Yes, that's right, my state government measures time differently than the rest of the world.
edit: also, an attendee just had a profanity filled open mike moment and I now love her to pieces.

Cold and hard.Originally Posted by Aimless
Experiencing my ER from the patient's perspective for the first time and I just love these peoplebut God damn these rooms are ridiculously cold.
And the light is not dimmable (pretty basic stuff) I spent many hours in the waiting to get a bed.
S is a plague. Especially in your circles because the alternatives are so few. Kamrat.
You live in a region with more gravity, probably. LOL!

Finally got a hot date with Moderna tomorrow evening!

So, didn't get Moderna but BioNTech. Not complaining - let's see if and what side effects show up.
The only really bad thing: The celebratory plant based beer I was planning on drinking was forbidden for the next two days.

TMobile just upgraded my government rate 6 cell lines for $112 a month with 2gb of data to unlimited 5G, at no additional charge.

We're stuck in a bloody snowglobe.
Thank you all of y'all!
I did propose. Well, it was far from unexpected, we had plans for some time. Still, I did get a couple of hints over time, one that I remember the most: we both might be considered something of hobbyist birdwatchers (my fault, really, and I managed to infect her with this hobby), so among other things, we do follow the few live cameras placed at bird nests in Latvia. We were discussing a particular bird of prey at the time over Whatsapp, and the fact that one of them had just been ringed, and her comment on that was "lucky bird"Oh dang, congrats!
Took a while finding the ring; we had discussed that quite a while ago, too, as she has a particular taste in things, and I really wanted to do this right. Not sure if I should perceive the whole Covid deal as blessing or a curse - most jeweler's shops were closed due to the restrictions, so I had little to choose from - but too little to get confused, either. I found something that felt just right, and the rest was essentially just a visit to a flower shop - apparently, I'm pretty good at eyeballing how many roses make a full bucket, provided I've seen the bucket.
She was happy - despite knowing what was coming, a bucketful of roses and me dropping to my knee was enough to render her speechless. She did manage to say "yes", though
So yeah, that's pretty much how it went.

Woohoo 'graduations!

Walpurgisnacht—and our 11th anniversary. We took the day off and just had a damn' good time while our daughter was at daycare, and then had a fantastic evening together as a family. The little one has entered what's typically referred to as "the terrible twos" nearly half a year early, and it's been incredible—not to mention a little hilarious—seeing her trying to test the boundaries.

My youngest son's blooming romance with a lovely young woman who's made him very happy. I got to meet her on Mother's Day, and it was one of the best Mother's Day ever....to see my son so happy, and share the day with his new love, and like her so much!
This morning I weighed in at 99,8kg. Which is about 220lbs. That is the lowest weight I have had this century. And 40kgs (88 lbs) down from when I decided my weight needed to go down around this time last year and 30kgs (66 lbs) since I was diagnosed with diabetes in January.
Congratulations America
My daughter just spontaneously counted to ten all by herself
Oh man, that is incrediblevery well done

Sony sent me an invite to buy a PS5 at MSRP and I actually remembered to log in at the right time and order it. Now to figure out if I want to keep it or flip it.

IIHF World Championship.
Team Latvia won against Canada, 2:0. That has never happened before. Not only that, but it's been a while since Canada didn't score a single goal, too.

Here's to hoping the show doesn't disappoint.

Oh, that's a bit of a surprise. It's been a while since I've as much as thought of that series. I'll wait and see, with little hope of my expectations being fulfilled.
Congratulations America
It's gonna suck and we're gonna love itglad we might get two seasons at least.
"One day, we shall die. All the other days, we shall live."
The books had lots of issues in terms of pacing. I wouldn't mind if the show made some changes (as long as those changes were consistent with the personalities of the characters). Just look at the Shadow and Bone show.
The fact this was renewed preemptively means it did really well with test audiences.
