@inlovewithnight.bsky.social
probably not worth a follow. would be a locked account if I could.
r/hockey thread about meeting NHLers. "Shea Weber. Met him at a bar in Calgary. He denied that he was Shea Weber. While he was very clearly Shea Weber hanging out with other hockey players and girls were flocking to them."
christ it's like a week later and will st*ncil is still yelling about boots theory? can dude get a hobby or something. take up macrame.
the only way to get the two "in transit" library holds to arrive is to go pick up the one that's arrived and is waiting on the shelf, right? wanting to pick up all three at once is a fool's game?
christ. I asked Dan to involve me on the call to do this client pricing so I could learn how to do it. he didn't, he did it with the salesguy himself. I asked if NEXT time we have one like this, he can PLEASE involve me so I can learn how. "it's not really repeatable, it's more of an art."
can I get 3 more likes on this so I can finish the list, I know it's a weird ask but it's bugging me to have it so close but not yet done
can try though for a lot of them I'll probably end up saying "I don't know" or "it depends"
wow 9:45 AM and a meeting has already made me so angry I snapped at a coworker, which I try really hard not to do. what a day.
based on my count I have now taken the kayak out enough times that it has paid for itself (based on a $35/hour rental rate). yay. all local lakes, tho, haven't been out to a Great Lake this year and doubt I'll manage it before Labor Day (when it stops being advisable). next year.
took the kayak out after work, very nice. good for my brain. I need to do laundry but I'm putting it off.
happy 30-50 feral hogs day the post was 7 years ago today
@stevedangle20.bsky.social @adamwylde.bsky.social I think you should know that while you're on vacation I'm re-listening-to the "We have to talk about it" section of the "Dead Horse" episode every day. I don't even know why. I just keep pulling it back up for my SDPN daily dose.

1 like = 1 book question 📚💙
cool, Dan's supposed to be helping me with something and instead he's just talking directly to the AEs and doing it instead of helping me with it so I can actually learn how. awesome. he's also ignoring my messages again. gr8.
this is lovely and ambivalent and I'm still not gonna see the movie.
RIP Tony Bourdain, You Would Have Hated All This Discourse
How would Tony the man feel about "Tony" the film? As Bourdain's longtime assistant, I learned never to predict his responses.

unfortunately since First Run of Ted Lasso ended I have learned what Brett Goldstein's actual voice sounds like and can no longer hear his Roy Kent voice as anything but a grating affectation. why has god forsaken me.
also I decided to linkhop along to figure out the whole ariana grande thing and lol triggered myself. should've seen that coming. a nap will help.
okay gonna nap after work, try for kayak tomorrow. the men have been quiet this afternoon so I've calmed down mostly. maybe Katie and Eej will nap with me.
another slate advice letter: woman whose husband wouldn't have a baby with her until she paid for having an addition built on their house with a climbing wall (!!!). then he quit his job to make art and ran up secret debts. so they have a baby, a house payment, the addition debt, and the secret debt
letter at one of the slate advice columns that gave a married couple the names Tyler and Jamie. flashback time.
ice cream achieved; kayak still possible but will see if I need a nap after work instead.
having a bad day at work (partly coworkers' fault, partly my own fuckups) and upset about a fannish thing that I shouldn't even have been thinking about but did. will afternoon ice cream fix this. will taking the kayak out after work fix this. or will nothing get better ever.
are we going to have new COVID shots this fall or are those not happening, anybody know? I usually get my flu and COVID shots done at labor day but if they're not happening then... idk.
just had to look into this and wow. WOW. either they are dedicated trolls or possibly there's a gas leak in that bullpen.
Trying to answer my own question of why I am more annoyed at Mariners pitchers for thinking Babe Ruth isn't real than I am for at my MP for proudly announcing before every scheme that his astrologer approved it & I think it's because I just have way higher expectations of intelligence from athletes
lol a poll on tumblr for "how many posted finished fics do you have?" first one only goes up to "ten or more" and then they added one on to go up to "fifty or more". I have 587.
took the dog for a longwalk and saw a little end table with drawer by the dumpster at the Montessori school. came back and got Dad to take the truck out to pick it up with me. got that set up at the foot of my bed and the cat has already claimed it as a perch.
"The Maple Leafs have hired strength and conditioning coach Andy O’Brien to lead a revamped Sport Performance department, according to league sources. O’Brien is best known for his work as Sidney Crosby’s personal strength and conditioning coach of more than 20 years." stole Andy from Sid???
arguing with Dan (screwing me over AGAIN) and the library's website isn't working so I can't even add books about it. rrrrr.
