Tell us all about it!

Well, I stayed up way too late last night following the news, so now I'm mainlining coffee to try to make up for it.

Im home from a week-long road trip. Had a great time, got to swim on Santa Monica Beach with a curious sea lion (that was kinda scary, they're huge up close lol and he just came right up to us like HELLO THERE!!!) It seemed like he wanted to vibe to the guy on the pier nearby who was busking with his bass and a drum machine, playing chill, mellow music and everyone on the beach there was just kind of vibing to it, including this sea lion. I gave him some space, and I'd say we all had a nice afternoon.

The ocean water was this beautiful shade of green-blue.

Oh and I recommend Coppertone sport waterproof spf 50 sunscreen, I didn't get burned all day at the beach and I reapplied every half-hour. It worked.

I was given a choice of attending a gig somewhere far away where I would have to drive and not be able to have a drink, or a smaller one in town where I could have a drink. I chose the latter, and I regret it. It was pretty shit. I would probably have been better off going to the larger gig and staying sober, even with the long drive.

Trying to make friends in a new town as an adult in your forties is fucking hard.

Crocheted. Got a couple rows on each of my projects. Ate some Mexican food and took a two hour nap. Just woke so feeling a bit groggy. @.@

Found someone on tumblr who’s mildly obsessed with an actor I’m also mildly obsessed with. Recommended them a movie of his that they hadn’t seen and they seem to be enjoying it!

Spent most of my day getting my hair done. Just got a smoothie with my friend and mom. Gonna clean soon!

Building a large park for the center of my lego city. I’m working on the central building today to enter into a contest tomorrow. I believe the results get posted on Wednesday and then I can finish placing it all next to the market square. It’s the last big thing I’m adding to my city, it’s gotten so large that I don’t have room to grow it anymore, which is just as well because I don’t like the last few years’ modulars much. I have about half and half of official modulars and MOCs for the big buildings and it’s probably 25:75 official vs MOCs for the small features.

My sister is getting married halfway across the country in just one week and suddenly everything seems too complicated to organize and get there and stay there and deal with the family and I'm wondering what are the chances Russia sets off Nuclear Armaggedon before that and put me out of my misery.

Just woke up from a nice, 3 hour nap.

Well I was doing my daily stuff in FFXIV and about to stop to start FFXVI since it arrived in the mail this afternoon, then my new buns who were running loose did a thing and in my rush to prevent stuff from falling on them (nothing that would have done serious harm but it would have wigged them out), I was still holding onto the PS5 controller, and when I let go to catch the stuff? My hand was above my cat's water dish and it fell in and was submerged.

So I was like "AAAARGGGGH" on social media because looked like I wouldn't be playing FFXVI today, and I couldn't even manage to advance the text through the rest of the cut scene that was happening in FFXIV when I suddenly jumped up. And one of my FFXIV friends saw this and paypalled me some money to help with buying a new controller. :O

The first store I visited was out of controllers entirely.

The second? Had a single PURPLE controller.

So yeah. Some annoying stuff in the interim, but there are happy bunnies dancing around my living room and I have a purple PS5 controller charging so I can start FFXVI in a couple hours.

Been progressing in Tales of Vesperia, did a little bit of cleaning and cooking. I cancelled my day off for the second time this month so I'm a little bitter about that but hopefully the four day weekend starting next week will make up for that.

I'm making Halloween decorations, including some witch and wizard portraits for the walls. Four of the kids potentially invited will be Muslim. I want them to feel included, but at tge same time a portrait of a magic user with a hijab also seems disrespectful?

Any insight on this from Muslims would be greatly appreciated. TIA

SA For context, I've said potentially invited because I know one family is possibly moving to a different town.

I’m NOT Muslim so don’t take this as the final say. But Halloween is a big NO for most Muslims and doing the portraits would be especially bad in the eyes of the American Muslims I know. Many do let their kids dress up and trick or treat so they’re not left out but not all of them do. I highly recommend talking to the parents of the kids beforehand and let them know that you want their kids to feel represented in a way that is respectful of their beliefs and ties to Halloween.

I had an instant pot. My sister took it months ago and at this point I've given up on it. So, I am thinking of getting a new one. Saw walmart has a 3-in-1 that just does pressure cooking, slow cooking, and sauteing for $69 (nice). So, I might save $30 and get that one since it is the only functions I ever actually used.

I've never had an instant pot, but a slow cooker is amazing. It can make such amazing food.

I have to buy a new watch, my old one just busted.

It's not really buying a physical thing, but our house has been college chic since we bought it. Both of us are gamer/nerds and our decorating sense runs to "does it function?" But my wife has started wondering when we become real adults, with art on the walls and shit. So I looked into interior designers. I was happily surprised that we don't have to be fuck-off rich to hire one. I think we'll do just the kitchen and dining room to start off with. See how we like it.
