So yesterday didn't turn out how we expected it to at all. We started out needing cat litter and ended running errands all day. It was alright though, for the most part. Here are some highlights:
This guy puts poetry out in front of his house for everyone to take.
Trader Joe's sells premade bibimbap now. Just don't read the ingredients.
And... we got a new tv! We weren't necessarily expecting to do it (and it's completely against the challenge for this month). But, we've decided to spend the money on our apartment while we still have a pretty decent disposable income. Come the middle of next month, I'll be working at the shop more and more while I look for writing work.
This is the only picture I found of the old tv:
Here is how everything looks now:
All the consoles and the router fit behind the tv, so now it looks much cleaner. I'm going to look into FreeGeek to get rid of our old laptop(s) and tv.
And lastly, here is what's going on at the 'flix. I don't intend to be harsh, but this is incredibly stressful. I'm not here to tell you whether I agree with the change or not. I am not Captain Netflix. Obviously, this is going to be a rough few weeks. I have to put in overtime there, too. So, don't comment about the change here. Or on my Facebook. I don't want to hear it and I'm not supposed to play a customer service role outside of work. Netflix doesn't like it's employees out in the world playing protector (or, alternatively, questioning their practices or insulting their customers). Also, hearing friends and family say the exact same things that the ...folks who call me say fills me with rage and contempt. I hardly got any sleep last night. This job, on an average day, packs the 'umph' to give me a panic attack. I'm sure you can imagine that going in on Friday feels a little like staring down the barrel of a gun.
Just a little honesty before my breakfast. Please understand. 40+ hours a week is plenty.
On that note, I really need to head out for a run to relax. Zoom!
