    Went to the zoo while high.

    Sibling wanted to go to the zoo, so we rented an electric cart for my husband and the three of us went out. I decided as weed is legal here to do that as well

    Turns out physical activity sucks less when high and there’s animals to look at also

        It was only a small hallway (3,5m2) but it went better than I’d hoped. I’m really proud, even though I’ll always see the imperfections too.

        So great success

          You should be proud of yourself! We tiled our kitchen backsplash. Everyone says it looks great, but i only see the one tile that’s upside down.

            Yeah that’s the thing. I think in the end the pride prevails, as others fall to spot it.

            Anyway good job, it’s great picking up skills!

    I finally hacked my 3ds, using the tools at https://3ds.hacks.guide. It was surprisingly easy, and gives you access to

    • homebrew!
    • emulators!
    • online play for most games! (see: Pretendo Network)
    • custom home screen themes!

    I waited until Nintendo shut down their servers 'cause I was worried about bans, but now there’s no excuse. Go liberate your 3ds, it takes less than an hour.

    Took Dilaudid.

    https://www.webmd.com/drugs/2/drug-9130/dilaudid-oral/details

    Had this really weird extreme pain in my side, felt like I had ruptured something. Ended up in the ER Tuesday. :(

    Doc says that it’s kind of like appendicitis, but because it’s on the left side instead of the right they call it “Epiploic Appendagitis”.

    Nobody seems to know why it happens, just that it hurts like fuck and isn’t dangerous.

    Treatment is massive painkillers.

        Not the person you asked, but in my experience: in the worst case you end up paying more for something that was rather simple, but in the best case they find some nice savings.

        That being said, if you have the money and just don’t like doing taxes, it’s pretty fantastic to just send someone your papers and wait.

          Thanks. Don’t know why in so nervous about it. I’ve always done it myself but i lost my mom last year and i have no idea how to handle her house stuff. I got a recommendation and now I’m just trying to work up the courage to call.

          It is pretty nice. I’d much rather work a day of overtime at my job, and let them handle the paperwork.

    I hit a major setback, thought it was going to ruin me, but instead of just accepting the failure and sliding back years in my efforts, I called some friends for support. They both independently told me that I was catastrophizing and not to give up but try assuming I would just sail past the problem and keep going. So I did, and sure enough I recovered really fast and I’m back on track again.

    I had my first microwave burrito about two weeks ago. I’m almost 40 and my wife couldn’t seem to believe I’d never had one.

    Saw Primus. That was pretty dope. I always thought Victor Wooten was the best bass player, but dang, Les Claypool, man.

    I’ve been traveling for the last 22 days. I’ve been to both countries before, so there might be fewer firsts than one might expect.

    I did get to see the Large Magellanic Cloud. That was definitely on the list. I crossed into Chilean Patagonia for a day, if only to soak in some hot springs. I got to see Lago Llanquihue, Volcán Osorno, and visited Bariloche. That was all new.

    Beyond that, it’s mostly details. Where I stayed and such. It’s been a fantastic trip.

    I’m in Buenos Aires for a couple more days, and there really isn’t much I haven’t seen before here. It’s just nice to be away, relaxing and enjoying all the little differences.

    I suppose the big first is that I did all these things sober. I really, really wasn’t in that condition 20 years ago. In that respect, it’s an entirely different (and for me, a much better) experience.
