I dunno, I've met enough people to whom having no kids is a serious offence / failure, so maybe my true reason to be mad is my frigid Canadian heart. It's been a long week, despite all my free time.
Laying in bed wide awake at 2:40 am and need to be up in 5 hours for work. Daylight savings and everyone involved in making it a federal policy can get thoroughly fucked. A bit of jetlag may also have something to do with it but still.
If Canada doesn't follow suit and get rid of DST like the US will then I'ma riot.

There were plans to remove DST over here too, but apparently some countries couldn't decide on which time to keep permanently
... And then Covid came and everyone just kinda forgot.

I dropped my stupid bowl of oatmeal and it exploded fucking everywhere like a cereal meteor impact. I got little chunks of apple and raisins IN MY AMP. at least my cat is helping with the cleanup, and I was still able to eat the ~1/3 that stayed in the bowl. happy monday!

Ain't it funny how stuff can explode when it falls on the floor? I have a bag of special baker's dried milk I use for making bread and bread-like products (muffins, cakes, etc). Dropped it with it opened once and it hit the floor flat, but that powder was like a cloud of noxious milk gas flying through the kitchen for about ten minutes. It's like the whole equal and opposite reaction thing escalates to infinity times the force when the kitchen floor is the reactionary surface.

USPS says they delivered a package. Nowhere to be found… had my new gym headphones in it and a few other things. Reported it on their website and at a post office. #thoughtsandprayers

So they didn’t deliver it because my name wasn’t on the apartment mailbox… which begs the question why I have been receiving all my other mail, still. Anyway. Got the package. Gym headphones; not only did one of them not even work, the package looked used and I swear there was someone else’s fucking ear wax in them. I even took photos. Returned them today basically immediately. Christ. How is that even allowed…

Stuck playing whack-a-mole with car problems again. Water pump died, had it towed, got it fixed, bring it back home - next time I need to go any real distance from home it lasts all of one trip and suddenly it's running really rough again and I don't know enough what to look for to know what's wrong with it. So back to the garage again, and probably another week of having to cancel just about everything because I can't get anywhere.

Almost sold my mesa. But the eq button on the footswitch chose the moment the guy was trying it out to not work (who even uses that feature anyway. Eq never shuts off!) so he panicked and bailed.
I bought a replacement cable and had it all working perfectly the next morning but by that time he was already driving hours away to get a different one.
Blerg!

I've just about had it with this goddamned winter bullshit. Wife wakes me up at 8:45 and says she needs to be somewhere at 9:00 and there's so much snow, she can't get the car out of the driveway. Super quick plowing, 8:55 she's in the car, so in the end she was probably just a few minutes late. I'm seriously considering buying some heating cable and digging that in the driveway so I can just press a button to melt it all next winter...

Yeah, might be a bit problematic as I don't want to burn down the house or the trees on the other side of the driveway
But heating cables that are intended to keep pipes from freezing are relatively cheap, so digging such things into the driveway wouldn't be completely impossible. I guess the big deal is to lead the water into a drain when the snow melts so it doesn't go into the house...Anyway, I'm getting more and more serious about this plan, as we got another 20cm (~8") of snow last night and more's coming as I'm writing this ...

I think capitalism is trying to send me a message. My new guitar got delivered to the parcel locker today but they never sent me a code so I’m stuck without it and I don’t even know if management can get me the number… just. Eugh. I give up.

I can't imagine how using greed as your primary religious belief would lead to one being an asshole, but here we are.
i pulled my calf muscle while working out last week. thought it was better, stretched it a lot, stuck to ground based workouts. stretched really good before starting this morning. pulled it again, way worse this time.
getting old sucks ass. my mind wants to go hard working out but my body keeps failing me.

You are preaching to the choir brother. I got up one morning about a month ago and my back felt funny. I was walking by the sink brushing my teeth and spit out toothpaste on an angle with kind of like this head shake and it dropped me to my knees. I could barely move and had to get ready to go coach my son's football game so I tried to put a sweater on and when I launched my right arm up in the air through the sleeve they basically had to wheel me out on the field in a wheelchair.
