My day was awesome. Went for a walk this morning before a light drizzle rain. Went to the movies with my gf. Then we fixed dinner and watched another movie. Took her home and now studying some programming stuff.

After 6 years with the same company and multiple firings and delayed payments, my salary got axed in half, but the owner got a new Cadillac, so yeah I started to reach out to every hubspot agency out there and thank god I got 2 interviews with double the salary.
Iβm scared, happy and sad, I am sure there is a German word for it.
Thank you for this post op this is what the internet was like so many years ago.
Oh I'm so happy to hear this man π, fuck that old job and the owner.
Nice
Weekend flashed all too fast. Still haven't swiped the dust of my shelves, but it was productive. Wish I could find the time to get few other things done.
Amazing. The sun is shining, itβs weekend, and Iβve just been indoor bouldering and hit 15/16 blacks routes rated V2-V4.
Shouldnβt have tried such an overhang as the last climb striving for that even number.
How about you OP?
I drove across the state and back to visit my extended family. I learned I truly donβt belong anywhere. The drive was long, through trump country, with billboards for confederate history month, and my family are maga.
I wish this was satire.
Also traveling as a single parent is exhausting
Good :) I went to a protest!
What were you protesting?
I was protesting the recent illegal deportations. It was the #handsoff protest so there were plenty of different causes.
Nice, keep up!
I finished classes from my master's, and presented the last test. Still have a final homework to do and prepare my graduation paper. But at last my Sundays are free again.
That's great! What's your masters in?
Thanks, in actuarial sciences. I already have a degree in it but the last year and half of college were during the pandemic and I felt there were some things I didn't properly learned.
I had to Google what that is. You sound very clever.
That sounds like a great day!
Pretty shitty. I've just been in a really bad mood lately, and kinda felt like shit all day. And I had to close at work. I really hate closing.
That's quite a username you have there
Honestly great I got to bike till my legs were sore & saw an amazing sunset
Cubs won, had a baked potato bar for dinner. Pretty good day.
Would've been better without all the rain.
Good enough π
Lovely day of volunteering. Not sure how to tackle the mountain of work waiting for me on Monday though.
I went to my first Cars and Coffee today, and then got into a very minor accident with my Miata this evening. Barely a scratch, thankfully. Someone slowly crept into the back of me with their jeep Renegade at a stop.
Great! My cousin and his daughter came over to watch my team win a spot in the national championship.
Participated in civics in a very uplifting way. Hopefully it will make the papers tomorrow :)
So-so. Trying to get some electronics working but they're being stubborn. Had to take a lot of frustration breaks.
Just rolling out of bed now :3
I was super tired and sleepy most of the day, and I don't know why. I did afterwards manage to bake a loaf of bread, and go grocery shopping, and I have a second loaf that will be ready to bake tomorrow.
The good - Helped my son move, which sucks because i have a bad shoulder from a bike accident recently, but there were 5 of us (family) so i was able to stick to lighter items. Was nice to spend time together and support him. He's been with us for the last 3 months and i know he's ready to get back into his own space. Exhausted and sore, but feeling good for him. Also, have some restaurant gift cards, so I'm hoping for a cheap date tomorrow.
The bad - i have a cat that will not use a litter box and cleaning the floor beside/under the box every fucking day is making me crazy! Also, have a bunch of work to get done before Monday because I've been slacking.
Very good, played Terraria the whole day with my main partner, had good sex, and ate well.
Why are you asking? Like what does it give you? You don't know me or mostly anyone here personally, right? Why are you invested/interested in the minutiae of our day-to-day lives? (I'm not saying it's bad, just very unusual, which is why I'm asking)
Wow, that is alot of information, glad your day was this good, and I'm asking because it feels a bit nice yknow.
Some people could have had a good day but nobody to share it with, or a bad day and nobody to talk to, I'm not gaining anything though π
I definitely don't believe that last statement. People don't just randomly do things without getting something out of it.
But you actually answered me, what you're getting out of it is the possibility of making other people feel good/better, the thought of which makes you feel good. That is what you're getting out of it. You said "it feels a bit nice yknow".
Why do you say you're getting something out of it ("feels a bit nice") and then at the same time say "I'm not gaining anything"? This is a direct contradiction.
Why are you grilling them? It's better than making others feel bad to make yourself feel better...
Don't answer if you don't like the question. Why be a dck about it?
Where am I "grilling them"? I'm just asking about their motivation. Is that wrong?
Oh my bad then, yeah I do gain that, the feeling of making somebody feel better inturn making me feel good is what I gain.
I said I don't gain anything because in the literal since, I'm not gaining information or anything physical really, but yeah ig I do gain something.
I see, makes sense :) interesting and lovely to hear.
How was your day?
