We closed a 15 year deal with a fortune 500 that means I can retire at 50 as planned. Spent 2 years on this damn bid.

A Fire Emblem game taught me what a myrmidon is. Well, it's what made me look it up back when.

Maybe this belongs in the struggle thread instead.

I actually started that channel and have videos for the next few days :rejoice

Took some learning and I had to switch recording software a few "episodes" in but I'm having a lot of fun with it.

Met with my accountant about a brief, unpaid tax window I’d failed to address: zero tax given.

This year will be different though, since I actually made some money.

More train station shenanigans today:

This morning, I go down to the platform and find an unusually large cluster of people standing in my usual spot, including my "rival" jean jacket lady.  She sees me coming and immediately moves forward.  In what I can only describe as "walking like a boss," I stride right past her and go stand further down because for whatever reason, the rest of the platform is fucking empty.   :lol  The train comes and I look over to see her with this dumbfounded look as a bunch of people struggle to cram into the door, while I step onto a nearly empty car. 

Going home at the same station, I get on the elevator and it fills to capacity.  The doors don't close because a woman is standing too close to them.  I'm all the way in the back, waiting for her to realize this, except she doesn't.  Everyone just stands there for a minute or two before these two Indian guys go "IT MUST BE BROKEN!" and everyone starts getting off.  As they get off, people start getting on and the two guys again exclaim that it's broken.  When they step off, it's just me and another woman left.  I push the close button and the door closes right in front of the two Indian dudes, who have a look of astonishment on their faces.  The woman next to me flashes a big grin and starts waving at all the people as the door closes.   :lol

I was going to post this in the struggle thread then figured it sounded like I was stealth bragging

My old boss contacted me. He wants me to go with him to a new company. Company has serious street cred but I hate the stress of switching jobs or being in that limbo. I'll listen to what he has to say but I seriously doubt it'll be anything of interest and  I'd rather not make the situation awkward.

Wife had to work on Saturday, all day, leaving at 6AM.

Made lunch. Did two loads of laundry, folded three. Made dinner, did dishes. Figure out how to get my son, neighbor kid, and myself to karate practice.

A few days ago we got a couple inches. Enough to be somewhat annoying but not enough to clog drive ways. I said fuck it and didn't shovel. Looked out the window today and most of that snow has melted. Feels good man.

I went to a new dry cleaner who spent the entirety of our voluntary commercial activity yacking on the phone in Arabic so when our business concluded I said, "Thanks, have a nice day¹," to them in Arabic as I left.

The look of :ohhh on their face. :noah

¹Paraphrasing, literally translating what I said sounds stupid in English.

Monday, I woke up at 6am, got a mcmuffin, hash brown and coffee. Went home, went to bed. Woke up an hour ago, at 4am. I woke up a few rimes during the day but I just went back to sleep because I have nothing to do. In an hour I'm getting a mcmuffin and some coffee and a hash brown and then going to some appointments. Then I'm going home and going to sleep until tomorrow's appointments. If Dying Light is looking good I may consider touching it.

Looks like my medication is somehow calibrated right. Think about 25mg is doing it for me. This is pretty ideal :leon I really do need to get a scale though if im going to be consistent about getting the right dose

Also, I got a lifeproof case. I can text in the shower :rejoice

Haven't been able to fit it into one of my extended fantasy scenarios (Himu and I, with other Boreans in jail together with lots of gender swaps is the current arc I am working on), but about 3 days ago I had this brief little thought about wiping a breakfast sandwich (McDonalds sausage egg and cheese biscuit, the crumbly one) on Himu's asshole before eating her out. It was pretty hot. I'm pretty sure the sandwich was cold, though, and sitting out for a day or two.

The place downtown I go to for Sunday brunch lets you smoke on the patio (I swear I go there for the delicious orange juice and the Portlandesque quaintness of being asked whether I want bacon or vegetarian bacon when I order) and today when I lit up while doing CPE a yuppie wife shot me (in my informed opinion as an oft-recipient of them) a top shelf look that could kill. She was sitting three tables away. Upwind. The self-importance. :lawd

While I don't agree with the counter-culture credentials this establishment flaunts, they do go out of their way to flaunt it, so for the life of me I'll never understand why the day I go to this place is the day foodie couples and Diet nu-Oaklander families hit the ol' corner place with locally sourced coffee and open mic night.

I'm going home guys! I never thought I'd be happy to say that, but it is honestly a relief to get to go home. This past week has been a challenge. I made it out the other side though.

This week has me face 4 operations!

I made it home just in time doctors said I had a time bomb in me.
