finished 40th book for the year (The Displacements - Bruce Holsinger); we move ever onwards
had a great weekend doing fast CAT with jean grey. she was getting PR after PR, with her best being 8.68 seconds (23.57mph / 37.93 kph). we have another event september 20-22, and i'm pretty sure she's going to earn her second title there! she's been phenomenal around other dogs lately, which is a 180 from how she used to be: barking, lunging, and growling at them.
I'm on staycation this week.
It's glorious.
Going well, had a series of minor fuck ups at work that were super embarassing and made me look a fool infront of my co-workers, but it's all sorted out and there's no problems resulting from it so I am not in any trouble as it was a miscommunication issue between me, marketing, and the founder of the company above all else. So they just fixed the situation with me and we continued on our way.
Still it sucks to fuck up though, especially on a project I love to work on.
1 more day until I get a break and fly over to Ireland for the cannonball run....so I've got that going for me
Is...is that your Porche? :O
No way...I don't even have a drivers license anymore (too many years in LA), these days all I drive is a bicycle. I'm probably the only dude to show up using public transportation, lol.
Damn. Maybe one day I suppose. Well, the key thing is that you have a good time, regardless of how you get there!
I always love the look of older cars, but my brain says "safety safety safety" and my wallet says "empty empty empty". So I get my kicks through Forza Horizon lol.
Going for good friends & good time. The supercars really don't do anything for me. Back when i drove I was all about off roading in my FJ cruiser with friends...those were also really good times.
My dad used to have an FJ! Those are fun. I always thought the windshield was so funky to look out of. It felt really unique compared to other vehicles I have been in. Only thing that wasn't fun was the back seat wasn't super comfy for extra long road trips haha
Yeah well same with the driver & passenger seats. Once you drove one, everything else seems cramped...super spacious on the inside.
Back in the day of forums, the two main FJ groups were hilarious and silly (there were some really serious people, but they soon accepted the fart jokes). We on e did the math and figured out how many bags of milk you could put in the interior.
....it was a hoot, a HOOT!
oh man I sound old...
Yeah, it was incredibly roomy inside! Such a unique vehicle. My dad also had an old sunrunner at one point and that thing was ridiculous. It could zip around like crazy, but it was so light. If you passed a semi on the highway, it felt like you were about to blow over.
Naww you don't sound old, that sounds awesome! That's the best part of the internet. Unique sub sections of hobbies that are just silly fun. Some of my fondest memories are from forum posts and MMO chats and stuff!
I've somehow managed to capture a bit of childhood wonder with videogames of all things again.
Way back when I was a kid, my uncle showed me Super Mario Sunshine on the Gamecube, and I was blown away by how good it looked. Clear water, beautiful scenery, bright colors. I was absolutely astonished. It felt like I was living in the future.
When I was a bit older and got my first gaming PC, I felt that same sense of wonder seeing Ironforge populated with so many people running around in their cool armor and epic mounts.
It's been a hot minute since then, and I haven't been wowed like that again until now, when I've slid my phone into a controller and steamlink's a fully modded skyrim from my PC to it. I just spent a couple hours marvelling at how sick that is that I can do that, lying on the couch and experiencing real ass games.
Now granted, the switch and the psp / vita etc have all been around for a minute, but this is my doomscrolling machine, turned into a handheld console with as high end graphics and mods as I can handle on my PC. It blew my mind since I've been dismissing the phone gaming ecosystem as little more than microtransaction shovelware hell for the longest time. It's just really neat!
Started a Spanish language course! Also trying out a bunch of new games
But today was messed up, someone that is a friend said something messed up about my religion and I don't know what to think now. Part of me is mad that I let it happen and that the other person thought it was okay to do that since I always take things lightly
