Good and meh. Personal life is great. I’m able to engage in all the hobbies I want to and am particularly chuffed about learning to play piano. Got a new motorcycle last month that I actually enjoy riding.

Marriage is pretty good. Got a bunch of child support earlier this year, which helped pay off most of my son’s medical debt.

Work is…meh. I love my job but I’m over it when it comes to working in general.

Health-wise… it’s okay considering how bad it can get. I don’t sleep well due to my heart pounding half or the whole night (been an ongoing thing for over a decade and no one can tell me why) so I take a blood pressure supplement (the only thing that helps). Always tired. I’ve become more of an introvert, which is completely fine because I really love my alone time. Have a good group of friends that I stay in touch with and occasionally socialize with.

Overall, I have no complaints. Unsure about the government situation but I can’t get stuck in worrying about that because that dumpster fire will just keep burning. Hoping for enough resistance to keep things from exploding…

Seconding AntennaPod. Used Stitcher and Podbean for a minute and it was frustrating that it usually took forever to resume a podcast from the widget. AntennaPod eliminated that for me. FOSS for the win!

Coworker I met when I started at my current job a year and a half ago. She’s the only person who makes me feel unconditionally loved, safe, and more confident in being myself than anyone else. She’s pushed me to be more engaged in the friendships I care about, which is hard because introvert. She has an awesome personality and has introduced me to a group of other squiggly (LGBTQ+) people who are super supportive.

Love at first sight 😊

SAME. Everything prints faster and worked well from day one.

1. Chicken sausage and microgreens with basil pesto.
2. leftover pizza
3. yogurt, sunflower seeds, and pretzels.

YES thank you, fixed it!

Can confirm. Just discovered them about a week ago and I’ll never go back to metal ones.

Edit: will NEVER go back.

Love them. Just the thought of them makes me salivate. Prefer kalamata but green are perfectly fine “daily drivers”. Won’t touch black ones.
