@ZombieGenesis Mine came about a week or so ago! Need to play it more than the once I have since I now understand the rules a bit better. We messed up and Red Hood wiped me out with the Minigun in like 3 turns.

In 12 days I move into my shiny new apartment! I have two roommates that I have a pretty active social life with so far. The apartment is nice and the area we're moving to is pretty cool.
(It is RIGHT NEXT to a Rolled Ice Cream and Boba place!! Also tacos.)

ugh now I have an idea for a Lost who gets her Glamour juice by inciting angry fanboys and reaping their distress.

My mom.
She's awesome and we have a great relationship these days. We haven't always, but as the years pass it gets better and better. The more I work at being present with her where she is, and working on understanding her for who she IS, not who I think she SHOULD be (as a mom), the better our relationship gets. I am so, so, so glad I was able to get my headspace in line enough to enjoy her for her. I'm a lucky duck.

Celebrating my 18th Anniversary to the dude I met in the bank on Shadowrun Seattle MUSH 23 years ago (and TSed the shit out of like that afternoon, lol). Not too shabby. I think there are something like at least 10+ teens alive today due to SR Seattle! I still remember trying to explain how we met to mundane people (this was before the advent of online dating!) and I remember my dad stopping me and saying "you know, maybe I do not need to know."
I have friends (including on this board) in the mushing community that have known us both even before we got together and shared that journey with us. So here's to a couple of decades of great friends as well, and hoping for a couple of more.

@mietze Congrats!

ADHD medication.
I'm only on the first day of dosage testing, and my dose is still super-minimal, but I can feel my brain shifting gears. I was able to (mostly) focus in an hour and a half long meeting this morning; I did drift twice when a chance comment set my brain a-wandering into unrelated things for like 5-6 minutes, but I didn't have to dig my fingernails into the palm of my hand to stay focused!
And then I actually cleaned and organized my desk!
(Sadly, I can already feel it fading a bit, and I don't get to take another dose for two and a half hours...)
But just... holy shit! Is this what brains are supposed to be like?? Because even this little taste of partial baseline human functionality is amazing!

Stop encouraging me to finish new Changeling code, dammit.

@Thenomain In my head she looks like Aubrey Plaza.

I don't wanna jinx it, but I might get to literally jump into a bathtub full of orbeez today.
Life is good.

I feel like jumping will have an effect similar to marbles and I predict you will end up bruising something.

@Auspice His marbles, specifically.

@Ghost It gets worse as you get older. Believe me.

I just learned something mind-blowing - although admittedly it has no real relevance to my life, unless I go to a convention and meet the guy.
My 11th great grandfather is a fellow named John Harington, who many people credit with the invention of the flush toilet.
You know who else is a direct descendant of John Harrington?
So I can be all, "Hey, cuz!"
(Does this make me a Stark or a Targaryen or both?)
