Become overwhelmed and do nothing. This was not a problem prior to having children though. In the before time I’d go train in martial arts, video games with friends, etc.

Doing ok: in-laws took the kids yesterday. My wife and I were able to take some pretty sweet naps.

We have been very lucky and fortunate to acquire the American dream. My wife and I wouldn’t have been able to do it without the help of her family though. Every time I look at the housing market it’s only gotten crazier.

I didn’t go, I didn’t see the point in it. People always ask if I regret not going: not even a little bit. I don’t like dancing and thought the entire idea of it dumb to begin with. Also, I’d rather not go broke over one night like that. I did have a few friends go and they said they had fun, good for them. It’s just not my thing.

A microwave/mini oven combo (or at least ours is). Despite the name, it actually takes quite a while to preheat.

I hear thermite is good at destroying things.

My wife and I were lucky enough to be able to purchase a home at a decent rate and then refinance a few years later to an even better rate (around 3.5%). We bought in 2019, when the world was still somewhat sane. The thought of trying to sell and get a new home at the higher rate makes me sick to my stomach and I feel bad for my brother-in-law.

When we redid our kitchen I demanded induction. We had a shitty electric stove before, but I love my induction. It’s be hard for me to go back to anything else.

Looks delicious. How does the skin come out? I’ve heard it’s rubbery, but never smoked one myself.

It’s a shame that Alexi Laiho passed away. He was an amazing guitarist. So glad I got to see him live.

I switched to US Mobile last year. I had a rough month or two with data not working properly, but it’s smooth sailing now for $20/month for 5GB of data.

Weed/drugs. You do you, but shut the fuck up about it. I don’t need to know why you think it needs to be legalized and all of the “health” benefits it offers. Just smoke your weed and be happy about it.

Me, an adult pushing 40, still can’t beat that section.

Pay off my house, do all the little projects in the house we couldn’t afford, save enough for the kids college fund, and buy a few shiny toys. Then go back to work like normal…I’d go insane with nothing to do all day. On the plus side, my family will have the most amazing vacations.

They started to enforce the multi home rule on my account, so I cancelled my subscription. I think I had the account over 10 years. I was barely using my account anymore, so I don’t miss it that much.

Have you checked out The Expanse series? I think it’s 8 primary books, with like 4 optional novellas. Its not exactly what you’re looking for, but it does deal with some of what you’re interested in. It was also turned into a pretty good TV show.

Set up an appointment with an Orthopedic specialist and consider occupational therapy. My wrists started killing me a few years ago and I’m now starting to get things together; took so long because I had kids and was laid off. I just took an MRI and have an appointment next week to figure out the next steps.

With all that being said; I use the Kinesis Freestyle Pro and an external trackpad.
