This is soooo ridiculous! The lengths that people have to go to to actually get their right name on things, then this nonsense!Two Massachusetts jury duty stories: a guy in Boston received repeated jury duty summonses for his dog who was actually named Rover, apparently even taking the dog to the courthouse did nothing to keep him from receiving a threat to fine him for not showing up
A home owner who was building an annex to his house and had gotten building permits then got a jury summons for “Annex” and his last name

The Dutch have some wonderful words, I worked with someone from Holland and loved learning new words. I just learned this one. My co-worker used to use "uitwaaien" - he actually went outside and did it when things get very stressful. I think I need to move to Holland!
I need a uitwaaien and a koekentroost!

I'm a fraternal twin. According to our mother, when we were babies we had our own language. She said she could not understand it but we understood each other perfectly and would have fairly lengthy conversations. Eventually we grew out of it & learned to speak English.

Went to my friend's farm this morning. Always good to see their boxer, Buck. It took him a couple visits to warm up to me but we're buddies now.
We went out to the barn to let their chickens out to roam. They are big! And the rooster is beautiful

I always thought it would be cool to be a twin.
I love Boxers! We had a couple at different times. Not the smartest dogs!

You own all of my heart, every inch
Ps you left enough wrist space to have a lovely “NEELYDAN” added as wraparound text
The weather out here has been nothing but soggy with a side of severe weather chances. I think we got 4-5 inches in less than 6 hours yesterday. Even the locals were saying they had never seen so many washed out roads. Today is supposed to be calm. I’m hoping to check out the new open hours at the ceramics studio.
I’m in the process of making hexagon tiles to use as functional art. I can use the different glazes I have to paint them and then make a magnetic mosaic so I can change up the design and look at color combinations.

Lacrosse game today in Yarmouth. The flood gates opened.
Broke up a play in front of his own net and took off with the ball down the sideline. Ran into a few defenders on the left wing and then made a perfect cross field pass into the slot running full speed.
Picked up a loose ball in the defensive end, had some room and took it. Cut into the slot, wound up and fired. Scored his first goal.
Then he did it again. Buzzer beater to end the third quarter for his second goal of the game. Similar play. When he is given any space to run, he’s gone. I’m so happy for him to finally have that confidence.
Played the entire game. Never subbed out. He was on defense for it all but he was the field general. It ruled
It made for an extremely easy lunch stop and drive home. Little guy is on cloud 9

Road trip up to Massachusetts tomorrow for an unexpected family funeral.
We are all meeting at Kowloon. Glad I get to go back before they close it.
Great send off for my uncle, a good time will be had.

I’m putting a roof on my pergola using corrugated panels - if anyone has some know-how hit me up I got a question
Ah f*** it I’ll ask it here
I’m doing a faceplate against the brick exterior - to that, I’m gonna install some angled brackets to run 2x4 slats down the length of the 12 foot pergola
What I wanna know is - are there pre-cast brackets that’ll have the angle I need (prob 5 degrees across the length of the roof)?
Right now I bought what appear to be ones you can fold to your angle needed but like - then won’t I have to annoyingly adjust for the same angle on each bracket?
Lastly, am I overthinking this? Because I do happen to be smoking a big ol fatty so

Fiji vibes. Us fans need some R&R too after a year of cheering on this season's Bruins.
When the biggest decision you'll have to make all day is whether to have your afternoon nap inside or outside, it's a good day!

There's someone in a position of power where I work that is just a gigantic trashbag human being, and somebody I have some history with of really just not liking them. Unfortunately, nobody else is aware of the trash bag qualities. Quite the contrary. This person has received awards! So now I get to see their face plastered all over ads and intranet pages with inspirational quotes. Hell, even my desktop display wallpaper gets auto-updated to a nice slideshow including that stupid face every day.
It's difficult. Not gonna lie. Not sure how I'm to move on or continue my work with that sort of thing hanging over my head all day every day.
EDIT: Just now I got an email that triggered another reaction lol. I can't win today.

So I know that I've been told before to be a sponsor to get rid of ads. fine and all, If I want to clear ads and improve the mobile experience? great and good.
But there is zero reason I should be unable to use the site because im not a sponsor. I have random issues where I cannot enter a forum or thread. just clicking the link to that object takes me to an advertiser site. not a pop up, takes the tab to the site. opening in another tab takes the tab to the site.
Frustrating as all hell.

It started off ok enough. Brought all the kids to school. Beautiful day. I had Friday off so I was worried that today would be a not-so-great catch up day back in my office. It wasn't all that bad though!
But yeah, the other stuff, mentally, just...woof.
its so hard for me to not call out from work on these nice days during the week- when the weekends have been shitty weather.
Tomorrow is looking like a sick day.

The fact that YOU can see that person is masking is an incredible quality. Yet, comes with some burden like you said. (you are a truth-teller, and that can be hard)
Honestly, I worked so many toxic jobs in my past that my body, at 57, is really taking a hit. Gut dysbiosis, inflammatory markers, cortisol level, etc.
You can get out (I know, not ideal). If you stay, you might have to learn to turn away from it, and find a way of allowing yourself to let it go daily so it doesn't hurt your heart of body long term.
