I'm waiting for my wife to give birth! We're going to have a little girl this weekend and I'm so excited. It's our first, so there's lots of nervousness about it.

house sitting two big goofy german shepherds. they’re way more chill than my last clients.

I don't know why the one on the bottom makes me laugh. Looks like he's got a wicked hang over and you're talking too loudly lmao

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I was trying to figure out what that look was saying. This is exactly it.

Sweet doggies :)

A friend who I've only known through the Internet is flying up to a neighboring city. So, my husband and I are driving down to meet him in person for the first time.

It's crazy that I've interacted with him for close to a decade without ever meeting him physically. Wish me luck!

Visiting my 6w/o nephew at the hospital. He was born early with a heart failure and immediately taken to a special cardiological clinic and I hadn't had time to visit him and his parents yet. I'm quite excited to meet the little guy.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hope he’s doing okay, sending some good thoughts!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Thank you. He's doing fine, just waiting for corrective surgery now. That will fix the defect permanently (TGA, in case anyone is interested)

I'm camping on the side of a lake at a state park with some family friends, which is very fun.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Thanks for asking.

Friday was my 40^th birthday.
Saturday will be spent playing with my new lenses, reading my new TTRPG books and finally playing in the Pathfinder 2e campaign I'm in.
Sunday will be yardwork and relaxing.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Currently drinking a beer in bed. Tomorrow I'm going hiking in the morning and to a country dance bar at night. (The latter is definitely not my thing, but I'm being supportive of a friend.) Sunday, another hike and lunch with a friend, and then I'm thinking backyard fire pit time with my partner. Monday ideally will be games all day, but we'll see if life gets in the way.

Eating ass and 69ing Nintendos

Other than that, I have no idea. Survive?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So eating ass while 69ing and playing Nintendo? Did I get that right?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

All stocked up on healthy snacks and homemade sun tea. Gonna play Baldur's Gate all weekend.

Tea brewed over a couple to few hours in the sun. Drop some teabags into a large glass container, seal it up, and place it into sunlight. Works best on especially hot days, as you can run the risk of bacteria if it doesn't get to a hot enough temperature to kill it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Interesting. Why not use a water boiler? Does it taste differently when warmed up slowly by sun?

Been taking to a guy and hoping to go on a date or something. Pokemon GO and cuddles is a date, right?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Good luck my hommie.

Definitely sounds like a date to me

I'm gonna install arch linux for the first time :3

Today I did a bit of handywork around the house.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (3 children)

It will be difficult to understand how to set up the boot partition, at least it was for me the first time. But I learned a lot during my first failed attempts... :)

Arch has an installer these days though which often works but not always.

Seeing family and playing D&D.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Planning to drug myself into sleep, then live vicariously through Lemmy when insomnia kicks in, maybe write something of use to someone, while trying to balance painkillers, nightmares, and existential anguish long enough to get to physical therapy next week, without thinking too much about what I want/should do but can't.

Hitting the beach before it gets too cold for the season.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Same here! Although my partner has no concept of “too cold” so we’ll end up on the beach in the middle of winter too.

Talking to our little boy our plans for the beach are:

Make a smiley face, Find Seaweed, SAUSAGES!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

That sounds nice. We spent a pile of time at beaches this summer

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

That sounds fun

Homework homework homework, then managing some flea market economics. Fun stuff (but unironically)

I ended up starting Deathloop. I feel like I just started but I am apparently several hours in.

There's also some other games I've been putting off finishing that I might go back and play but I feel like then I'm just going to put off progressing in Deathloop.

It’s my wife’s 30th birthday. We had dinner at our favorite German bar last night then we came home and buzzed all my hair off. Today we’re going to the coast for a day out then tomorrows the big day. Still waiting on some gifts to get here but I figure they’ll be held up in the mail.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Visited my long-distance partner for a chill few days. Headed back soon and getting good hikes, and tike with friends.
