Why wait till december to exchange gifts, its more fun to have them already.
Also, boiler kaput, oefenen voor dikke truien dag en koude douches van 1 minuut voor wanneer gas echt onbetaalbaar is.
Son needs surgery and they just told my wife she can’t attend due to her pregnancy.
Now i have 2 upset children to comfort…
We’re doing a secret santa thingy for work. This time it’s not limited to “our” office but with people all over the company. So I don’t know anything about the person I got.
Now the limit is 15 euro. There is also a website where you can create a wishlist to help your secret santa out. The one I picked only has one thing on his wishlist: a 20 euro coupon for Bol.com.
I don’t know anything else about this guy but I already decided that I’m going to hate him now
Well, I am excessively disappointed.
Normally already, I really hate when this happens. I am *utterly* terrified of people honking, of sound chaos.
I hoped that perhaps this year you’d have something that’s closer to you. Like I know you probably can’t conceptualize that some people, that animals, don’t feel easy at all around such high levels of noise. But this year, with everything else… I guess you can’t conceptualize the existence of LGBTQIA+ people, of women, or of a few thousands dead men. Or perhaps you don’t care, which is even worse.
Or perhaps you’re actually happy about it. Why else would you go out drive and honk for two hours straight with these gas prices? Why else would you kill or hurt other people by driving recklessly without any destination?
I’d rather think you simply have nothing better to do, and the concept of dictatorships, of sport laundering, of killing people for being LGBTQIA+, for being women, or simply because you don’t care about providing safety, are all above your head.
For two hours, at midnight even some were still going around honking continuously. I heard at least five collisions. And there’s even one guy who threw out fireworks.
I am really, really disappointed, to see there is no World Cup 2022 boycott in the end, and that the same idiocy will continue to live on.
The speeddating even from two days ago was interesting. There was some awkwardness involved, but that was shared by almost everyone there, since most people were there on their own. Had 10 minute conversations with 8 women (there were around 100 people total at the event), most were enjoyable albeit obviously not really more than that. Had to send in the people I liked most afterwards. Yesterday got a mail that two people had liked me back, so here’s hoping I get to meet them properly at least.
New Belgian Astronaut, I finished the LEGO Saturn V rocket yesterday, and I saw a meteorite this morning! Very bright streak across the sky for about a second. That’s the first time I ever saw one this “big” in person.
Also wage negotiations today. Wondering what is going to be possible next to the 10% index.
Ugh, it seems waking up early2 days in a row is still not possible for me. And I don’t know why, because I was awake at 6:30, but just couldn’t get out of bed. Tonight I’ve got an appointment again with my psychologist, guess I’ll add this as a conversation. Maybe she can dig deeper and help me find out why I’m unable to leave the bed.
I send a mail a week and a half ago to the immo to ask if I forgot some things to do and when we will meet on the 1st. Still have no mail back. Guess I’ll send another one again, because I’m getting anxious something won’t be ready by the 1st of December.
Kind of forgot to post previous weeks. Shame on me. But I created [a bunch of frangipan ‘koffiekoeken’](https://imgur.com/gallery/mLwaoY3) this week.
I thought I applied to become a volunteer firefighter the day I got my FGA, but something must have gone wrong with the online application. When a guy at work asked me why I didn’t start with the people who started last week I checked my mailbox and couldn’t find the confirmation of my application. I applied again yesterday and this time I did get a confirmation email. Unfortunately because a group of new people started last week they won’t be considering my application for a while.
Pfft, what a morning. I’ve had a panic attack and a half tonight.
First, around 1:00AM I wake up, immediately stressed and unable to breathe due to allergies. I had to get out of the bed and sit in the sofa to be able to do some breathing exercises. It’s my first panic attack in say 4 months. And it was still as bad as then, maybe even worse.
Finally at 1:30 I get back in bed, a little bit less anxious. I fall asleep and immediately start dreaming of having an anxiety attack, waking me up once again.
I’m really tired when I wake up and basically start crying again.
I’m numb. I skipped my alarm about 4 times, left the house at 08:00 and got to work at 09:00. Normally I share my shift with someone, and as long as he’s on time at 08:30, I can arrive a little later, and maybe even leave early.
He’s not here. Yesterday, on my day off, he asked for a last minute reschedule.
Meaning I can’t go home “early” either (read: on time). Same thing happened to me on Tuesday.
I’m numb and tired in life. At least from next week Friday onward, me and Chesire both took a full week off for his birthday. Here’s to hoping it’ll help. Last week I noticed I’m feeling dissociative again. My mental health is really suffering from the long hours I’m doing at work.
On a day to day basis, the Rilatin really helps, once it starts working and even after as well. It makes me calmer, so that’s good. But I don’t know if I can keep going like this any more. I’m already working 4/5th goddamnit, what more do I need to do?
Prepared homemade kimchi yesterday. Now it needs to ferment for 2-3 weeks. Curious how it’ll taste. Might have to rinse the cole a bit more in the future but we’ll see.
Went to see The Cure yesterday. The afterglow is real and I’m really not looking forward to having it ruined at work.
Hey /u/TheRealVahx, any opinion the gin you shown (my GF like Gin, for now been testing BrewDog cactus one, Herbalist and a few other, always looking for ideas)? Or any you’d like/recommend?
Thanks (and enjoy)!
goddamn my neck hurts so much i cant sleep or work or whatever?
How do i get started? GP first then specialist?
It’s the day before black friday /sigh. Like I usually try to avoid getting swept into the whole hype around this day but if you need something anyway… you might as well keep a look out for some deals and save money for other things.
Daughter has come of that age when everything and anything is either, Frozen (lego or dolls), princesses or Barbie and I needed toys like this for Christmas.
So I went to check [amazon.nl](https://amazon.nl) because amazon seemed to have a shit ton of ~~petroleum left over waste products~~ Barbie dolls in sale… I sent a mail to my wife to verify if the particular dolls I was eyeing were not the same as we allready have for Sinterklaas. (Barbie dreamtopia but this was the Dreamtopia princess of dreams edition)
I think it took between 5 minutes from seeing to the dolls to getting an answer…They were all sold out… Like dude wtf.
I am so glad I don’t have to do any physical black friday shopping like in the states, I would go fucking nuts.
Tbh all consumerism related miserie aside I like it that she now has a preference for certain toy types so you can work towards a theme that is compatible instead of giving her a plethora of different toys and see what sticks.
Got an opportunity this week to take a training session at a gun club. Up until now I had never handled a real or even a toy weapon. No kermis shooting either. Suffice to say it was pretty impressive. Aim was terrible at first, but I made progress. Bless the poor instructor haha he was so nice about it.
My American friends had a good laugh about it too. They’re not big on gun but for them it is amusing to hear how “the European” experienced it. If we had the same laws here, I’d agree that knowing your basics is important. But without this I feel I could have spent the rest of my life being blissfully unaware. Still, never know when knowledge comes in useful.
