Yeah wife is still passed out. Originally we were going to go to b-dubs today for lunch and finish cleaning out our storage unit before our neighbor's bbq tonight.
Now I just want to die peacefully instead of doing any of that.

this cracks me up because it reminds me of the ritual in my mid/late 20s where we'd all be completely hammered at like 3am and someone would be like GUYS LET'S DO BRUNCH TOMORROW
and we'd all be like YAAAASSSSSSSSS
and then no one would wake up before 2pm

Oh in my mid 20s I was that guy. We'd all power drink four nights a week and go to a take out hibachi place that set up shop in a former Wendy's
Now I am envisioning a day filled with sparkling water and me holding a beer tonight but not drinking it.

Hitting the point of diminishing returns in genealogy research
I have spent three days documenting every single person with a given first name, surname combination in the Glasgow Electoral Registers from 1891-1939
That's 430 entries across 118 distinct addresses
my great grandfather might as well have been named Angus MacScotchface
it's absurd
in the genealogy charts my grandparents put together, basically every Scandinavian ancestor had a name like Bjørn Bjørnson
on the one hand i am lucky that my direct Swedish line has a fairly unusual surname
but on the other hand it stems from one of my ancestors in either the late 1700s or early 1800s just making up a new surname so it complicates things at that point
speaking of Scottish people i just learned apparently Scots Word of the Day lady has been driven off twitter by concerned unionist men and now i'm displeased with men all over again
Specifically by a campaign group called The Majority, run by a guy called Mark Devlin, who is a terminally online psycho

I drank a little bourbon while I watched bake off. Not too much. Drank a lot of water and went to bed by midnight. I woke up at 8:30 and felt pretty great. I was not in it to win it.

It hasn’t happened to me yet but I’m pretty convinced that at some point I’m going to be on a trip only to learn I misbooked my lodging in some way- and I don’t have enough money to just casually grab other last minute arrangements without a plan/budget
On that day I will die, I imagine

we had this happen in london after a plane didn't land properly and damaged the runway
we had a friend living like an hour away so it wasn't too bad but i had to call into work and let them know i wouldn't be in tomorrow and they gave me shit over it and i was like "it's not like i'm faking being sick, you can literally turn on the news to verify my story"
Agreed to do some kind of beer run thinking itd be a fun couple hours at 3pm
First beer is somehow at 9am? Why am I awake? This should be illegal

i haven't misbooked lodging yet but i have had plans change and considered whether it was worth also booking a separate place

I misbooked one of my 3 hotels in Alaska this past september. The booking system sent me around in circles so many times I accidentally picked a booking for a week later than when I needed it.
It was the hotel where we were staying for one night after the flight out, so we were totally exhausted and standing there in the lobby with all our luggage and nowhere to stay. The entire city fully booked. Eventually we found a hotel that was 20 minutes away. They had one free room: one of those weird sex suites with a giant tub in the middle for $400 per night.
I took it instantly but there was definitely a good 15 minutes of pure panic calling places and getting turned down repeatedly.
I was the only one to use the in-room sex tub. It took an hour to fill and my husband refused to get in but wished me luck with my staph infection.

I’ve been on a road trip and I had a Marriott booked. But we weren’t going to make it. So we booked a motel 6 and canceled our Marriott reservations. And the Motel 6 was fine. I would book a motel 6 again if needed. It was clean and reasonably safe.

I once flew to Japan with my parents who had somehow cocked up the hotel booking.
Between Christmas and New year. So everything was booked.
Luckily as we walked through the snow looking for hotels (this was pre mobile internet) an old dude I'd met on a previous trip recognised me, came to chat and then walked us over to a hotel where he knew the manager and sorted us out.
I now inspect all booking details from my parents if we're travelling together. And ideally arrive a day after them and leave a day before. Or I handle the booking.

Yes and no. You're not wrong, but there's some specific designs people have made for 2 horse trailers that I kind of like, plus the construction is generally better on the horse trailers than a used camper.

I once drove from Denver to Kansas City. Hadn’t gotten enough sleep, hadn’t anticipated how exhausting it was to drive through the boring ass flatlands. I stopped at a 19 dollar motel. I napped for maybe a couple hours, found roaches, and got back on the road.
