My legs/knees are covered in bruises from twice now falling down different staircases, and my asshole cat keeps jumping on me. :mad:

just electrocuted myself plugging a desk lamp into the surge side of my new UPS. finger was just barely in contact with the spade side of the plug, i guess. don't know if my reaction made the connection break or if the UPS sensed something and stepped in first.

dunno if i should go buy a lottery ticket because random number generators are streaky, or if i've used up all my luck for the day and it'd be a waste of money.

Today while installing a two port charger (2 USB in one port, the other is the round 12v) in my motorcycle, I noticed that my lower fairing was broken from a rock I hit the other day.
Possible fix: new motorcycle.

12 years? Pretty good. I'd be happy if it lasted 5. Hopefully mines lasts as long, but replacement cost is probably $250, so meh.

Was 20 minutes late for work today and no one was even in yet to notice... Oh, and it's snowing at the end of March.

Got pissed off and yelled at a lawyer for small talking while I was on the clock. If I am paying you and I am in the room dont spend an extra five minutes talking about basketball to the fucking other lawyer.

Or stop using antiquated 'time based' billing processes.
