OH ITS THIS WEEK!! It’s run by the WSU extension group that’s done some of my library classes. I hope my parts get here in time. I’ve heard wonderful things.

Latest odd growing up in the PNW realization:
The neighborhood dads when I was a kid read mostly Weird Al, cool theater hippie sometimes with a touch of Boeing engineer.
Which I am realizing in this moment may not be ubiquitous.

When I take my coffee outside in the summer I get buzzed every morning by the same hummingbird. He’s so fast I sometimes I hear his sound before I see him. Soooo cute.

I would die for my local library but they do not. I could def find one in the Seattle area but I’m at the “print and test and adjust” phase of the process (let’s be real that’s my whole process) and it’s hard to do that running back and forth.

I broke my Cricut which means I cannot work on my custom wallpapers I’ve been designing and WHY.
I can fix it but why do I have to take apart this damn machine to paper craft.

This is a thing I think I will be amazing at but I know that every time it’s absolutely terrible

Went over to dads to help him dig out some retaining wall things and set a post or two and he greeted me at the door with “oh wow have you lost weight!?”
Well done papa, 10/10 greeting, please repeat.

I know I’m susceptible to bias because I simply cannot be mean to any orange cat.

This is by far, my new favorite book.
The writing is stunningly incredible, clearly written by a voracious reader and talented writer.
I cried or laughed actually out loud almost the whole book.

Please, do yourself a favor and read this.

Turns out my phone has been just…not accepting calls?
No filtering turned on
No call screening apps
It’s not giving me the voicemails people leave
Not showing missed calls

Im guessing we aren’t alone.

I think there is a large amount of humans our age that entered into a market that wasn’t rewarding. For me, working in tech adds this extra layer of “wtf am I contributing”

we need a word for a type of person who spends all their time working to live in a city so they can be near cool things, but they don't actually like going out

Hahahahah same same. My family keeps asking what I WANT to do. Idk man, pay my bills, not work too much, have free time.

But there’s this nagging feeling that I want so much more.

I am also trying to figure this out and I’ve landed on:
Continue to do the thing I have experience in to pay bills
Find passion elsewhere

I’m not satisfied with this answer

Have I always wanted to be thin and slender?

Yes.

Will I ever be that?

I love when people argue with me over a fact about myself.

Yes, that’s what I weigh. Sure, you can try and pick me up to prove it to yourself.

And yes, those are my real ring sizes. No, it’s not my thumb.

No, idk why these things come up. Especially the second one.
