I used to have like 2-3 hot chocolates per day when I worked at the hospital. There was a Tim's in the basement. I'm almost scared to check how much grams of sugar that would have been.

Oh man, that 47% alcohol rum messed me up. Did not sleep well and felt like I drank a liter of coffee before bed. Time to get some Pepsi and mix it down.

Ran out of kitty litter liners. Those things are always hard to find because there are different sizes and my litter box must be an oddball size since it's always hard to find them that fit.

Maybe try Amazon? That's where I got the ones I'm using, since they didn't have the ones that fit my litter box at the store.

Never thought of ordering stuff like that but yeah that could be an option. I did check and found some at a reasonable price, so I know next time. I did find some at Walmart though, so I got all the boxes they had. HOPEFULLY it's the right size. :p They had large and extra large, so I imagine large is the right one, I'll have to check in a bit.

Some book I've been looking at flipping is now out of stock everywhere and 20% more expensive than when I was stocking it... I didn't jump at it because of the risk of it not selling. Pussy.

Since I ordered Battlefield from Amazon for the 20% discount, i won't be able to pre-download it. To make matters worse the box only comes with the key, no disc. I'll have to download the whole game.

oh schnapp I forgot that was out. First World Problem: forgot BF1 was released and now have to buy it some days after

Yeah I historically never ordered stuff like that from Amazon (or household stuff), but I recently have especially since I got a cat. I have Prime so man it's just really handy and the selection is second to none. Surprisingly, Amazon isn't always cheaper than say Walmart but yeah it's got the selection for sure.

Got a titan warforged piece of loot out of my emissary bag today. Its item level stomps the gloves I have on currently, but has my class' weakest stats compared to the lower item level, perfectly itemized stats my current gloves have. What to wear? Fuck my life.

Potential date for tomorrow has 3 kids and is having trouble wrangling a babysitter up over the last few days. That's at least 1 too many kids.

My LDL dropped from 134 to 120. I have not changed a thing in my diet and I certainly don't exercise. I feel like I owe someone for it.

It's not my FWP, but I went to IHOP this afternoon and the lady in front of me kept complaining about her eggs. "I want them to be not runny but not firm". Over and over it went. New eggs being brought out. Then she didn't want them, so the waitress took them away. Then she called the waitress back because she did want them. Then she had to tell the waitress how she made them at home.

The waitress had a lot of patience, I'll give her that.
At pretty much any Waffle House, I just say "scrambled with cheese" and the eggs are amazing every time. I might add a dash of salt and pepper.

I had a medium container of chocolate milk today. My ears started ringing shortly after. I checked the nutritional information & saw that it was 31 grams of sugar...high, but not as bad as most sodas...until I also noticed that it was 31 grams of sugar per serving...4 servings per bottle. Yup, I just ingested 124 grams of sugar at 7am in the morning. If you need me, I will be in a sugar coma for the rest of the day.
A 20oz soda is 2.5 servings.

Morning.

i actually got up before 12 today! Well it's a bit past that now. Don't know why I've been so tired all this week did not do much even though I was off. I feel like a slacker.

Edit: Just realized I posted in wrong nef thread. I suppose having the lack of self discipline to get up earlier would be a 1st world problem?

It did get cool quite a bit last night and this weekend should be great weather per the weatherman. But it will be a lot warmer next week, in the 80s or so. Goodness, almost November here and in the 80s?

That's awful. I'm done with this bullshit for the year. It's supposed to be reasonable next week(50s-60s), but for the rest of the year, if I even think it's gonna hit 70, I'm not working.

I got fucked yesterday. I was raped by sun the whole day on a job I don't particularly like, and going home, people driving like fucktards held me up enough to get stormed on. Everything in the truck got wet, and I was soaked getting my shit into the office :^S

It's almost November and I'm still paying to get my grass cut. Screw global warming. Now I have to pay from at least April through October. That's a minimum of 7 months.

A bunch of my fantasy football players are listed as questionable. That means I'm going to have to check their status tomorrow to see if they're active, rather than being able to set my lineup right now. What a Pita.

I just bricked my motherboard BIOS. Need to shop for a new motherboard now. That requires having to open up the machine so I can check what the CPU and Ram is as I don't know the exact model, so that I can make sure it will be compatible with the new board.

That motherboard was giving me trouble from the get go anyway, it always took great effort to get it to boot properly.

Ah, summarizes most of what I loved and hated about working construction.

And Americans should be FWP-ing about AT&T buying up Time Warner. Didn't they just buy up Direct TV? Isn't that like... a monopoly.
