Grandma went out as fierce and independent as she was in life. She'd made it into her 90s so that's impressive in itself. Not sad, she led a long and full life, just feeling a bit numb and trying to avoid thinking about my parents' mortality. Gotta figure out how to be there and support mom.

Sounds like a solid win for everyone.

Knight gets laid. Dragon gets laid.
No longer sexually-frustrated dragon does much less ravaging of the countryside.

And now realizes she misunderstood what "eating maidens" was supposed to mean.
Lady knights be reporting back to the king like, "Oh. . . SLAY the dragon? I thought you said LAY the dragon. Incidentally, this purple-eyed woman with a giant cloak over her body is my new wife. Don't worry about her. She's fine."

Buh. This Monday feels particularly Monday-y. Or maybe I need to work on getting enough sleep.
...
Nah, it's Monday's fault.

Trying to find the willpower to scrape my car so I don't have to deal with a car-cicle after the snow stops.

I know we still have more than a day to go, but slightly disappointed the weekend's snowtastrophe is down to under a foot according to the last report I saw. 🥲

I have frustrated words for my office's primary software vendor. I should not be working after hours. 😩

Just realized I forgot the bread 😵
Guess it's deli meat or PBJ in tortillas if we lose power. 😅
Well shit. Just checked the updated prediction for this weekend and I am definitely doing my bread and milk run tonight instead of lat minute. Calling for just short of 20 inches of snow now. 😬

And done! Now do I put my refund into savings towards a house or condo I'll never own, put it towards replacing my aging e-bike, or splurge on something fun? 🤔
Weird timing, but looks like I'm getting my 1099 and W2 together in the mail today instead of weeks apart from one another. Time to knock out my taxes tonight~

i'm going to spend the rest of my life figuring out how a small band of elites decided that acting as the global currency and primary military hegemon was gay and feminine coded
BREAKING: Europe may begin selling U.S. assets in response to a new conflict with the US, a move that could trigger a dollar collapse, per Bloomberg.

I’ve posted this a million times, too many people forgot what social media was like before the algorithm spoon fed you

you can have cool stuff on your timeline if you actually follow people posting cool stuff it’s that easy
