    I have pretty much no contact with folks from high school

    I suppose I don't really regret it, since they seemed to just be focused on partying and shit

    which is fine, just not what I'm into really

    This evening I plan to wander the woods finding edible plants and mushrooms which I will add the the 3lbs I found yesterday.

    Tomorrow is my weekly weigh in. I'm down about 10lbs over the past three weeks. Hopefully I'm down a couple more. 20 to go!

    I barely have no contact with >95% of my family I know about. I have not spoken to any one from high school since I was in high school so I did not care for being there nor do I care now. Just people who feel their high school era was the best time of their lives is just sad and weird to me I had a fun time out of high school on until I moved here
    People or things I am in fighting or fought since moving here
    The State Tax office [Still am as I am owed the last 3 years of returns and according to them I am a 82 year old man}
    Not currently fighting the county gov {I did not get my property tax for 5 years nor did I get it this year so nice to keep going to the office to fight the fact they don't send the bill for whatever reason then claim I owe them
    Still fighting with my job about how I was fired and other things
    THe city over my yard and other things. When I tell people I have not had a fun time living here it's not a joke I do not like trying to pay my tax bill and collect my refund in this state it's basically a hero's quest of stupid as I have not lost my stuff over these people is amazing to begin with. it's beyond frustrating

    Today is my birthday, and I am having a second breakfast of mushroom omelette outside a local cafe.

    Like most omelettes I've had, it's good, but needs more cheese.

    Autumn/Fall makes me feel weird in a way... like a sensation of nostalgia mixed with guilt and anxiety. I've always felt this way in fall, ever since I was a child. I think the feeling was initially rooted in my brain from going back to school every September. By the time winter hits I don't feel that way anymore. Winter has this calm peaceful effect on me, especially when it is snowing. But Fall always makes me feel weird.

    Personally I like the fall and winter {not here} I love the snow and seeing the season turn in the trees I hate the endless summer it's here
    Mostly I like Halloween as I like the look of it as I could do to piss off my neighbor more do a Halloween theme then just dress it up for xmas like heads on sticks to heads on holiday themed sticks or a spider web with a large spider that turns into xmas lights and a present themed spider and far more things you can flip

    I just yelled the c-word at a bus that I missed because my app told me it wasn't turning up, to give you an an idea of how my day's going so far. And here was me thinking that the worst this day was going to get was eating lunch alone (which I'm going to have to buy because I left my meal pot at home) because everybody I socialise with is either working from home or on holiday

    i might have saved a guy's life a couple of days ago?

    he was out in the middle of the creek, calling for help. other people were there but i was the only one in the water and i'm not sure anyone could hear him from the shore

    at first i tried to get the lifeguard but it turned out the lifeguard wasn't on duty, so i had to swim out and get him myself. he had a cramp in his leg and was having trouble keeping his head above water. i was able to get a hold of him and help him paddle back to the shallows and deliver him back to his mates

    i'm not sure what would have happened if i hadn't been there. someone else might have seen him before he went under, i don't know

    Nope, Crimson, you definitely saved that man's life

    His cries for help would have only got weaker, so if he hadn't been seen by that point then he wouldn't have been seen later

    Take it from this once-time trained lifeguard: you're a literal life saver and should be fucking proud of the fact

    An addendum to my previous hornet spraying post

    My mom apparently has a nest of European Hornets somewhere in the soffits of her house and these fuckers are massive just straight up mondo units. Like, almost 4cm in length.

    The other day, after spraying them outside apparently around 15 somehow retreated into the house so I was dodging and weaving, diving over the couch all wall running with the handheld vacuum like fucking Neo sucking these bastards up.

    This must be what Pearl Harbor felt like.

    I stopped by this morning to make some breakfast because I have no food and I am a bum and as I was making eggs one fucking landed on my chest holy shit I thought I was done for.

    Hug your loved ones you never know when a giant hornet made of concentrated cosmic spite will fucking sting a hole through your chest and kill you dead.

    my glasses broke, right in the center of the bridge, which is ironic, because they're supposed to be the frames that you can bend all willy-nilly. Not that I did that, just that you can.

    now I'm wearing my old jawns, which are actually my favorite of all the pairs of glasses I've had, because they're the ones Commissioner Gordon wears in Arkham Knight, and also my barber refers to them as "Malcolm X glasses" which is a pretty good association, I think.

    used to hang out in my friend's garage at night, smoking and chatting until all hours

    the last two summers we spent out there, they had these fucking hornets or something, big loud black motherfuckers that would come in hot, and they were mean, sting you as soon as look at you

    so naturally, we each had a tennis racket and if one of them came zoomin' in we'd taunt it so it'd come in close to get you, and thwack 'em good. If you hit them right, they would segment as the tennis racket passed through them, like that laser in the first Resident Evil movie that chopped that guy into bite-size pieces.

    edit: @Crimson King you're a hero! for real!

    A favorite summer past time of mine was going out and thwacking carpenter bees what were eating our house with a tennis racket.

    If I was feeling real goosey I'd get a horse whip (one of the long bendy ones used for lunging and desensitizing not like a bull whip or riding crop or whatever I'm not a monster) and try to Indiana Jones em out of the air. Or use a bb gun.

    Edit I should note that I love bees bees are good excepting for Hornets and carpenter bees and also yellow jackets fuck those guys fuck em

    I had the same procedure about 8 years ago, and it was worse than my heart surgery.

    Carpenter bees are good guys :(

    you just gotta leave some sacrificial wood around so they'll go build in that instead of your house
    or stop building houses out of wood, it's frankly kind of weird america.

    Birthday done!
    • Aside from the morning omelette, ate a good bacon cheeseburger, greasy pizza, and pasta (not all at the same time)
    • Got enough mojo to draw my D&D RPG character!
    • Bought a locally made tabletop RPG based on my native folklore! It's rough around the edges, but it has some interesting mechanics, and I hope it's good.
    • Got Deoxys in a Pokemon GO raid!
    • Just very recently got word of some neat Discworld City Watch casting! https://www.terrypratchettbooks.com/richard-dormer-leads-watch-cast

    A+ day would slack off again.

    probably not tbh, I know most insurance places won't even cover termites.

    though I'd argue that as god's creatures it should all surely fall under 'act of god'...
