Worked at an organization where the IT department had an asshole for a director. Everyone quit one day in the middle of the week. It was just the day after payday (payday was every other Tuesday) and on Wednesday - no IT, no help desk, no nothing. The staff never responded to phone calls or emails. Even the phone…

I think that’s what the governor of NJ said. The drawback is liquor stores in NJ are packed. When you pull into the parking lot you get a chit and wait until texted to go inside - the wait is usually an hour. 

I started to go on Fridays between 6am and 7am for groceries. The store isn’t that crowded, maybe 5 customers and 3-4 staff. It’s a local, independent grocery store, not a chain. Apparently the Shop Rite, Acme, Pathmark and Whole Foods stores are packed and having difficulty stocking the shelves, so I’m avoiding them…

I have weird anxiety dreams usually just before I get up in the morning. They’re vivid, in color and filled with allegory that I can’t really figure out. The dreams usually involve people I know or knew in my youth, teens and early adulthood and involve incidents (actual, modified based on a actual incidents or…

Our two cats haven’t changed their routine too much. They still wake up at 5:30am for breakfast and then I go back to bed. During the first week they freaked out and jumped on the bed, poked their nose in my ear and tapped me on the shoulder hoping that I’d get up when I didn’t get up at my usual 7am.

Don’t we have enough stress going on right now? Adding a remote possibility of the head of the Executive branch of the federal government maintaining in office by some cockamamie scenario only makes for more stress and drives us all into a rage and heavy drinking before noon. Let’s all just focus on staying healthy…

Based on data. As opposed to what exactly?

The gym I attend started hosting IG Live events 2-3 times a week with modified body weight workouts for a running time of 45 minutes. Lots of lunges, squats, pushups and crunches. The emphasis is on core stability and strength with some cardio (jumping jacks, star jacks, duck walks, etc) to get a good sweat. The…

Just went to the grocery store this morning at 6:30am and one shopper was loading up on TP. Some people just don’t get it, or in the case I saw, maybe a control issue. I dunno.

you forgot about the part of documenting it and sharing it across the interwebs for everyone else to witness their dumb shit behavior.

One became sick and the other died. But, hey, one less vote for the GOP in the general election. 

A fool and his money are soon parted. 

The gym I attend (or attended) allows members to freeze their memberships for a period of time. So I put a halt on membership for a month, but I have a feeling the freeze will go on for 8-10 weeks. 

My gym is trying remote (modified) HIIT classes at noon and 5:30 daily via IG and streaming the playlist. Seems like a good idea, no weights needed unless you have them handy. The only thing is, I’m an old fossil (OK Boomer) so I’m not sure how to rig up my phone to view the IG stream and hear the music stream. But I…

Good cheese smells bad. 

OK. You get it and you’re not happy about it. But for crying out loud, don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good.

Dude, your contact info is on some list somewhere and a candidate bought it and now you get mail. Even if you have an opt-out option and you select that option, it just means that you are DNS (do not solicit) for that candidate or your donation to the non-profit. You may of purchased something and your contact info…

The cats have already adjusted. They’re up at 5:30am and ready to breakfast. And if I don’t get out of bed “right now, damnit!” I get cold wet noses in the ear with lots of purring. 

Of course it’s ethical. They bought a list or multiple lists. You were on it and now you get mail. Your buying habits, zip code, donations to other non-profits, donations to other campaigns and your income all play a part. Plus your interests depending on what you look at, click on and comment on are tracked and…

It’s true. Sub in white wine for broth for a cup or less. What’s the worse that could happen?
