I had a mini break alone last week.  I had dinner at a fancy Italian restaurant.  Everyone around me was eating fancy meals with glasses of wine and champagne that they were clinking together.  I had pizza, mousse for dessert and a mug of hot chocolate.  I’m a takeaway and fast food joint kind of guy.  These are not my people.

The procrastination station has returned.  We have a chatbox zone again in the forums.

I had a gastroscopy done yesterday, without any sedation, since I needed to drive myself home afterwards and carry on looking after mum.  That was… unpleasant.

The happiest of birthdays to the amazing @Melrick!     

I’m still trying to find a way to ship you some of that Key Lime pie…

Waiting for my new eyes to arrive.  Have both site and forum updates / bug fixes to do but need to see clearly first. 

My (remaining) cat turns 18 today, he’s old enough to vote!

Is it a sign that I’m getting old, or that the parental units are getting old, when the pair of them go down on their hands and knees to peer under the kitchen cabinets, and my first thought is, “Are they both going to be able to get up ok?”….?

well this is the first time ever that my job and life has made me want to drink all 3 days off! i think i really need to change my life! 

Using AI to edit your smut can be so wild. ProWritingAid decided that this sentence…
…needs this correction: 
I mean, sure, I’m as passionate about fucking as anyone, but that isn’t quite what I was going for there. I can only assume the algorithm assumed Kai’e’ie is a name rather than an emotion and that I was trying to make small talk instead of comparing two different emotional states—Kai’e’ie versus mi’lee’veez—related to intimacy. (Kai’e’ie’: combined from syllables from words meaning love, say, life, and bond; combined, the meaning is, literally love said, life-bound, or figuratively, without you, I die. The fictional people who created this word are apparently as dramatic as I can write them. Mi’lee’veez: the root words in their entirety and proper order mean my dream heart. Sappity-sap-sop, someone get a mop.)
 
This is what I get for creating a fictional language for my novel. 🙄 J.R.R., you’re a horrible influence.

Not a single day this week has been quiet. Something is in the water or something
Cause everyday people are acting out of character more than usual, the numerous storms?
Something else? Holy Cannoli I’m not getting paid enough to babysit grown adults
Second time where I had to separate people.

Nice to have an honest scale.  Though, it’ll likely lie and inflate the numbers once I let it out of its box.

*Peeks*
 

I got plot bunnied.
Had one vague plot bouncing around Posted it just to help clear the brain now I got like three more.
This isn’t how math is supposed to work.

Everyone is still quite welcome to partake in Halloween 2022!

My heart just aches for everyone in Turkey and Syria, or who has loved ones there. I will be making a donation to Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders, although it will be just a drop in the bucket in the face of such disaster.
