Watch cool cars. I'm looking forward to Roadkill's newest episode.

No politics chat. Bread chat is allowed (though not encouraged). Video games, cars, relationships, work, sadness, happiness. It all happens here in AI.


I just started playing Splatoon 2. It is a Good Game. Splitting my time between Overwatch and Splatoon and online classes seems impossible, but I just put in like 60 hours into Zelda: BotW in like two or three weeks so maybe gaming as an adult is possible. At least, as a single adult :buddy:

Brother's marriage is falling apart quickly even if he's in denial about it. Since they're renting my Wife's house we're getting dragged into their bullshit way more than we'd like. Eviction notice (30 day) for her was sent the other day, brother is welcome to stay or he can gtfo. Either way as soon as my house sells he/they/whatever are getting a three month notice so we can sell her house. Never rent to family, what an absolute pain in the rear end.

Place a strip of tp over the end of the bowl extending to the water so that one end hangs in front of you. It'll also reduce backsplash when you drop deuces.

RIP sloth. You'll be missed but it makes sense that November claimed on last victim :(

In other news, I've been sleeping like poo poo lately this week so I took a zopiclone last night before bed to try and have a decent sleep. Well, good news is I did sleep better, but now I feel exhausted after waking up and yet again, it tastes like I mouthwashed with a bunch of pennies. Since I started doing the Taekwondo thing, I my joints are so tight first thing in the AM I literally walk down the stairs one at a time like a crippled octogenarian until I start to loosen up.

Haven't you been against that relationship since the beginning? Sounds like a mess. So many people think that being some real estate mogul is the dream but being a landlord seems like a gigantic ball ache. I doubt I will ever do it.

Yup, most of our family has been against it and is surprised it lasted this long. Landlord thing wasn't planned, just happened that they needed a place and the wife's house was sitting empty but we didn't have time to prep it for sale.

We dropped the price on my house a bit and have been getting a lot of zillow/redfin/etc views and saves as well as a couple tours each week, hoping to have an offer by the end of the year but this is a lovely time of year to be selling a house. Day we close on mine they get three months to vacate hers then we're both taking a week off to prep her house for sale.

New mario is dark souls of marios, sorry to be the one to tell you. Really it's not long or hard, but there are definitely some difficult ones if you want to 100% it.

We're about 5 weeks adjusted (6 weeks early but that time doesn't really count vs. a normal newborn) and it's been a bit rough. Still no real schedule and it's a coin flip if she'll sleep 2-3 hours at a time or only when held. However, she slept really well last night at least. Doc says 6 weeks is peak crying/fussiness, so we're almost over the hump. I think it's just a growth spurt since she's feeding constantly and freaks the gently caress out if there isn't a boob in her mouth.

Wife meeting me for lunch, trying to figure out where to go. Found a great Indian place but she is not sold on it. We will see!!

Also we had a vendor split into two companies and one of their network guys quit, so we think we figured out why some of our contract unloads were not working in our as/400. Sweet.

I don't know how people do it, even with a property manager it's a loving pain, having rental properties sounds like it would be lucrative but it's not worth the headache.

A buddy of mine just sold a bunch of his rentals and he said it was the best thing he ever did, had a giant party when the last one sold :v:

In a charity book bin on the other side of town there were yet more old Haynes manuals for older fords. This time 1968-73 escorts and 90s Mondeos.

Clearly some force out there wants me to know about Fords so I picked up the escort manual.

Now to hunt for a MK1 escort to go with it...

But I also went and did a Polar Express train ride with the GF and her kid last night (which was fun, if somewhat boring), so I guess I don't have room to complain.
