Sounds like a painless process.

Shoot. I need a shed. That’s a really good goal for the year!

When my father was in a motorcycle accident in a different state, I was fully prepared to quit on the spot if they tried to tell me my absence “couldn’t be excused.” I had no savings, no prospects, and no plan, but I had a burning belief that family comes first.

Luckily my boss was an actual human, and wanted to help.

I had my tonsils removed when I was in my late 20's and it was not the best experience, however I did have a strong support system in-place. I ended up needing to spend an extra day in the hospital, and my recovery was long. It needed to be done, however, my ENT said, "we had to stop surgery several times because of how bad your tonsils were. They were the worst I've ever seen."

On the good side of things: It literally changed my life. I had no idea how poorly I had been sleeping, and once I did have some healing, and started getting good, consistent sleep, many of the things I struggled with just suddenly disappeared. I didn't have the rapid mood swings. I didn't struggle with anger. I could think more clearly, and focus on tasks. Life was truly a fundamentally different experience for me.

I still have abnormally large adenoids, and have a handful of sinus problems (a different ENT said, "you look like a 12-year old in there" because of how packed the tissue is). I do not regret or lament the problems I had healing because of how different everything was post-surgery.

I'm really curious about watching the rest of the series, because I'm sure there's going to be other stuff there that shows up in other films. The first thing I recognize that shows up in Spaceballs is going to blow my tiny mind.

Starting off my week with a crown on a molar that decided that chewing wasn’t really an activity it wanted to participate in. Heartened by how my team performed on last Friday when I took a day off, and there were some escalations/failures.

This is a great point that it's more of a era or genera than a designator to be applied as the work ages. You have Rockabilly, Classic Rock, Grunge Rock, etc.

One of the things that makes music slightly different than durable goods, although I would have a hard time calling anything from the 90's "vintage," but it's getting close to that age.

Epic pockets, I hope.

Growing up, the family joke was that it's not a project until there's blood!

I used to do this with Gentoo, and it was always a blast! Glad that you’re having fun “rolling your own!”

That looks fantastic!

Thanks for sharing! I appreciate it!

Thanks for your ideas! I appreciate it!

Why shouldn’t work be fun? Why is there an expectation of misery in exchange for living?

I kind of feel like a weirdo for not chatting a lot, I guess?
