Hey Pardner

Pull on up a rocking chair next to this old man and take a seat

Tell me bout your day. It's story time!

Was it nice? Get some stuff accomplished? Finally get that project turned in? Get a good grade? Just wanna brag about something cool that happened to you?

Or maybe it sucked. That's ok too! Tell us about it! Sympathy for your troubles or scorn for those who wronged you!

Or maybe something big happened and you have an announcement about your life, or a crossroads you need help navigating. We can help with that too!

Talk about how things are going for you and we'll chat about it. Your friendly neighborhood chinchilla always likes a good story.

    I'm painting some sort of troll man portrait.

    He's like an old troll dad.

    Sort of grumpy.

    Wearing a blue jumper.

    Very daddish.

    Does he have trollish wisdom to dispense

    Also, what are his opinions on current troll bridge tolls

    Too high?

    Don't get him started on troll bridge tolls.

    He'll just start ranting about those "goldurn kids today with their trip trap music."

    After spending the week in spend mode buying a couple board games (Munchkins Legends and Cthulu Fluxx) and spending money on food and schhlitterbahn tickets so that my SO and our best friend could go for the day, I've balanced my sheets for the rest of the summer that I'm going to be spending in Beijing. And, even though my laptop died on me yesterday (a laptop I really fucking liked) and I'll be returning today via UPS for a full refund, I've found another laptop that I like that has close to what I want and is $100 cheaper than my current one, so at least I get to save some money there.

    What sucks is this nearly second degree sunburn I got at schlitterbahn like oh my god Oghulk why are you stupid and not put on sunscreen you are the stupidest

    Oghulk I have a lot of questions

    How is Munchkin Legends?

    Why wouldn't you use sunscreen?

    The hell is Schhlitterbahn?

    (Glad the laptop situation got resolved)

    legends is super fun and I dig it. it's really similar to regular ol' munchkins, but with more allusions to mythology and such which is kind of cool

    also has some stupid 'fuck over your friend' cards that got played against me and did not enjoy

    i didn't use sunscreen because the last few times we've gone we've only been there about half the time and i only got a very mild sunburn, and we ended up staying like twice as long this time because of our friend

    and schlitterbahn is a water amusement park that is all about swimming and water rides and is way better than any other amusement park unfortunately without rollercoasters

    Managed to track down a dentist I had worked with on a mobile dental unit where I assisted him in removing an infected wisdom tooth in a rainstorm on a bus. He said he was impressed with me and so now I'm shadowing him next week on some crown removal procedure!

    Also my DAT prep book arrives today. A year early, but no such thing as over prepared

    Legends should definitely be mixed with other sets. The cards are OP, nerf plz, so exactly in the spirit of munchkin.

    and I wonder about my neighbors even though I don't have them

    I usually have at least one "oh right sunburn is a thing" moment per summer before I get back into the habit of using sunscreen any time I'll be outside within four hours of noon - this year's was a couple weeks back, and I had to avoid client meetings for a couple days until my face went back to its regular color.

    I think the fawns are a cool addition to the race list, but I also think the monsters are cool like lions tigers and bears.

    Today has been pretty great. I finally got switched to a laptop at work. Since I switched departments (note, not jobs, just who I report to) I've got a wireless headset for my queue calls, a new wireless keyboard and mouse and have been switched to a laptop to be able to work from home a bit. On top of that, I have the ability just arrange PTO days between my teammate and myself and not have to plan out 3 weeks ahead. It's been a great month.

    I am having the same issue there is a short cut I want but I dont know how well it would turn out

    However its also long enough to do fun things with! Which has only happened once but it was sweet. I still need to get it uh trimed and fixed though.

    But imo hair decisions are the best/worst

    Yeah right now I'm caught between 'Id love to get a more feminine 'do?' and 'I really dont want to draw attention to myself', so it's pretty annoying.

    Get that short cut! Hair grows back.

    my day is going p well, y'all!

    i took a PTO day from work to do house/car stuff (get my oil changed, do laundry, clean house), plus i was real frustrated at work because of some nonsense so i needed a mental health day

    thankfully my work is real chill with sick days, so i can do this kinda thing sometimes

    i had a donut and OJ for breakfast, got my oil changed (i finally found a garage that won't try and needle me for extra repairs which is awesome), and now i'm reading tabletop games and chilling with my cat (she's an asshole)

    This is sort of where I'm at

    It doesn't help that I've got a receding hairline so awesome looking bangs are out of the question.

    I'm just gunna let it grow out to a little more than shoulder length and play it with it some then

    I should probably get it cleaned up some but I also don't relish the thought of telling a barber I'm working towards a more feminine hairdo.
