Today I'm home. Came home yesterday from a 2 week vacation at our cabin. It was nice.

Nice! Did you get a chance to talk with ol' Nessie? She won't return my calls about the $3.50 she owes me.

It's hot now.

Not nice! (except for going to the beach or a swimming pool, I guess)

I'm vaccinated (1st shot).

How are you feeling about windows 10?

Tomorrow we're celebrating my daugthers 8th birthday. Time flies. And walks. And crawls.

And soon, she will be all grown up and trying to be a YouTuber instead of getting a real career! Hurray!

Does it also swim?

No, but it drinks our tears.

Didn't get to talk to Nessie.
Hot is nice when I'm having vacation and can go to the beach, not when I have to sit inside and work.
Windows 10 is great, but have you heard about Windows 11? It's going to be the greatest OS there ever was! Check it out now by googling Windows 11!
Yes. Or an author as she says she wants to be.
My precious tears...

Tomorrow we're celebrating my daugthers 8th birthday. Time flies. And walks. And crawls.

Your daughter is 8?!?!?! Shit, I remember when you announced she was born. That post is around here some where. Hang on, brb.

I know, time goes by so freaking quick.

2013 was how long ago?!

Yes.

today I was supposed to do some work, but I ended up wasting a ton of time watching youtube.
thanks for reading this interesting post.

The amount of time I have watched youtube when it could be better in some ways for me to perform other activities is at least six seconds

it isn't wasted if it provided feel good chemicals to your brain

Reviving the daily thread with this post.

As of writing this, i am sitting in an airport lobby, waiting for my first ever flight on an airplane.
I suppose it's about time, given that i work in aviation.

Can't help but feel a bit anxious about it all, but I'd say that's the beauty of new experiences, right?
Makes you feel alive, sort of.

I'll see you around ASDF!

[atomtengeralattjaro]

Oh wow. I'm guessing you've flown on helicopters before, then?
Anyhow, have a safe flight and have fun. I hope you don't have allergies or anything that clogs up the nose because that can be terrible when descending.

[Froggychum]

Pray that there isn't any infants on your flight. That is a terrible experience for everyone involved.

Edit: Oh also good luck! Don't become a castaway; but if you do, make sure you look really good without a shirt on and then bring your story to Hollywood when you get back o7

Well I sat in a few, but sadly no flying with a helicopter. The ones I work with aren't really designed to carry additional personnel, so the chances of that happening at work are rather slim.

No allergies tho, so that's nice!

There were infants, but I was too busy staying calm to be bothered by that.

I'd say i look alright without a shirt. Not like e.g. Ryan Gosling or anything, but pretty alright for your average human being.
A bit of a gut but still athletic, y'know.

Then again, no flying over open waters, so the chances of becoming a castaway were pretty slim to begin with.

[atomtengeralattjaro]

fun fact: all open waters are really closed waters because there is stuff around them

The sailor in me just died a little.

FALSE. The stuff isn't around the water. The water is around the stuff.

[atomtengeralattjaro]

they are around each other

[Greyson]

they are around each other

From what I know the Arctic is just a sheet of ice, unlike the Antarctic (or Antarctica) is a solid landmass.
So technically you, as a submarine, would be able to dive through the arctic belt, which in turn means that if the water isn't fully enclosed by landmass, then the landmasses are enclosed by water. +1 for open waters.

Lately I've experienced a ton of emotions and grown a shit ton. My partner and I decided to take a break. It's been a rough week since then, but the goal is that we're going to be happy, the both of us. For her it's figuring out if she still has those feelings for me, how it's going to be living alone, and dealing with her issues. For me it's going to be working on myself.

This week has allowed me to discover who I can talk to properly, which I'm so happy about. I have been leaning way to much on my girlfriend to be the one I talk to about everything. It's been really nice to be open with my feelings with other people as well.

There's a lot to be done, cause almost 11 years of being and living together means there's much to separate. And we of course have a kid together, so we're figuring out that as well. But we really care for each other even if we're not "together", and we work really well together, so it shouldn't be an issue.

I'm of course hoping that she still has those feelings, only that they're burried deep down (and these things go up and down), but either way I think we'll both be happier. And should she still have them, we of course have to take things slow, figuring it out as we go.

It'll be hard to deal with all the emotions, all the anxiety and stuff, but I'm better today. I know that I have people I can lean on, talk to, that have my back no matter what. And I know that I'm a good person and a good boyfriend, which is something I was having issues with earlier.

So that's new.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
