I’m stuck out here in Vancouver with covid. Just want to go home but I guess I have an excuse to sit around and do nothing. I am pretty damn tired.
Today is National Chocolate Chip Day. You know what to do. You're welcome 
What the everlasting f***???? Is that one of those hybrid/electric busses? Hamden CT found out the hard way these things are more trouble than they're worth.
At least no one was hurt and they got it into the bus lot away from the very packed streets around the station.
It was only a matter of time before one of these death traps caught fire.
Nope that appears to be one of the regular busses.

Sitting here in my kitchen which overlooks where my deck SHOULD be. I signed a contract at the end of February stating my new deck would be completed by the end of May, and I’ll be lucky if it’s completed by September. What an absolute lost summer, the deck was our way into the pool, and our old one has been demolished for over a month now. Im so disappointed and angry, and there seems like no legal recourse that can be taken against Lowe’s or the contractor….

Yeah, I think every doctor on St. Elsewhere got shot at some point, and ER had several mass shooters.

Grey's Anatomy, Chicago Med, Chicago Hope. Hell, I think Emergency had one episode like that, so make it 50 years.
My aunt passed away unexpectedly this morning. We just had made plans about a week ago about her coming over finally after being separated for 3 years due to the pandemic. Her daughter kept her away from all of us really. So I'm at the stage of anger right now. I know that anger will go away but that's the state I'm at.
She was 89 years old. She was my godmother. She was a tough cookie. And I will miss her very much. I feel angry. And sad. And mostly numb.
I'm so sick of being scared and nervous all the time. Having anxiety and depression doesn't help the way I feel right now. Just sucks. This f***ing sucks.
If anyone can send some good vibes or prayers my way I'd be grateful.

Swimming in the Gulf of Mexico today and the water is around 80/82 degrees.
Struck up a conversation with some locals and tried to explain to them what it’s like swimming in 62 degree water up north.
Me: First you go in up to your ankles until your legs cramp and then uncramp.
Then you go in up to your waist but usually only because you need to pee.
Then, if you’re brave, you go all the way in and over the next 2/3 minutes your body gets to the point where it’s numb enough that you can swim for another 10 minutes.
Texas guy: Why would you do that?
Me: I have no idea.

Well, When you get out you stay cooled down for a while.

So sorry for your loss.
A HS friend took her own life last week. We weren’t close, but we did chat online from time to time. She had her demons and would come and go on and off Facebook for weeks or months at a time.
Our last conversation was 2 days before she passed and she alluded to it.
The sad part is that it wasn’t the first time she made a comment like she did. I did what I always did in the past and reminded her of the good things in her life….and how much I valued her and our friendship but she didn’t reply.
2 days later it happened and I feel awful.
another scare:
