I picked up some extra work so my weekend will be pretty much nonexistent. Let me live vicariously through you. Anything fun or exciting? Anything shitty you want to vent about? Boring normal stuff that needs done? Lay it on me!

  • I’m driving home to the beach to visit my parents. hoping to avoid the onslaught of fireworks this weekend since they’re illegal at the beach, tho I will be driving home on Independence Day. I always thought they should give us the next day off to recover from lack of sleep.

    First barbecue of the summer! First barbecue with friends as an independent adult too, really. I love to cook for people and have two perfect summer recipes picked out to make this weekend- arugula salad with steak and parm, and a spicy cucumber-watermelon salad. And then Sunday will be full of chores :(

    The smoke from the Canadian wildfires has been really bad this week and I don’t expect it to lift by the weekend so I’m not sure what’s gonna happen. I want to get out on the lake and paddle but I find it really difficult to breathe outside and really don’t want to be out there in 250+ AQI. Spent two hours in the garage organizing stuff, sweeping, and hosing it out last evening and my throat and lungs were really inflamed come morning.

    Probably gonna end up playing Tears of the Kingdom or 40K Boltgun in between cleaning my house.

  • Ugh, I’ll be on the venting side. I drew the short straw and had to do two weeks of night shifts (and I’m a early bird, NOT a night owl). I slept nearly 40 out of the 48 hours last weekend, and I expect I’ll do the same this weekend.

    Live in Canada and going on a road trip down south to the States this weekend to visit family. Would love to enjoy the lake if the weather permits

  • My company has Tuesday off for July 4th so I’m taking Monday off as well. I’ve been extremely mentally exhausted every day after work lately, so I’m planning on doing a whole bunch of nothing tomorrow, and then going from there. Been playing Rimworld lately which has been fun, so I might do that. I also want to finish This Is How You Lose The Time War, and I might get back into TOTK.

  • BBQ with some friends and family Sunday. Probably take the kids fireworks shopping. Installing an AMD MI25 in my server. Some woodworking as I need to make a new top for the hamster habitat (he chewed through the mesh). And if I have time I might do some drywall work.
