Got a new router yesterday, and forgot to order SFP+ port for it. Now I might have to wait until Monday to get it.

My 10yr cd @ 3.5% interest rate is about to expire this year.
:eek: 3.5% :eek:

cant find anything that matches that riskfree rate nowadays. :(
should have put in more than $20k.

was about to order a laptop, but I just happened to check and my credit card and I'm .69 cents short. And if I make a payment right now it won't post until late Tuesday evening or Wednesday. Was hoping to order it tonight and have it ship maybe Tuesday. Now I probably wouldn't get it until maybe the middle 1st week of July :( But with my luck, the laptop will be OOS by the time I'm able to order it anywho lol. I wish I was rich like a lot of you OT fellows.

Waited in a long outside line in the city for this ice cream shop with a very good reputation. They have 88 flavors with many unique twists. I ordered a scoop of mango chili and raspberry lychee - after I ordered I realized I missed a yuzu flavored option. Didn't want to wait in the now longer line again.

Also need a neck brace from the amount of ridiculously gorgeous women walking around the village.

What's up with UPS and Fedex tracking? I had a Fedex package shipped to me on Thur. and the delivery date is still pending despite the fact the package is now in my state.

UPS tracking is completely hit or miss the last two weeks. Half the time I get a perpetual page loading icon when I check a tracking number. I had a package delivered the other day and had no idea it was showing up.

Fathers day BBQ. I have 20 people at my house ( not all family) . So there are like people in and out using the bathroom and stuff.

I'm on the grill foods almost done and I have to run in for another platter. On the way out of the house I notice my dog is covered in blood. I called my wife in and ran out and plated up food and went back to see what happened.

My dogs jaw is broken and his front teeth are broken out. I cant find a vet to see him and no one knows what happened. No local vet can see him. Even the emergency vets. The ones that can see me tomorrow are telling me that is gonna cost me more than my rent to fix it is it is a broken jaw.

Tomorrow I have to choose between paying my rent or paying 65 bucks to kill my little best friend.

Someone knows what happened.

Dogs don't break their jaws on their own. But regardless of that aspect, that really sucks and I would be beyond pissed if it happened to my dog.

An 8 piece meal at KFC cost almost THIRTY BUCKS.

Fuck that. Wasn't it like $18 not too long ago?

Yeah it's crazy how even low quality fast food is expensive now days. And KFC specificly has gone downhill so much. I mean sure it was always seen as being garbage food but it's just so much worse now. Once in a while I'll decide to have some because it's been a while, and I don't even end up enjoying it and then I remember why I don't have it often. I'm no foodie, and I tend to enjoy fast food and processed crap, but KFC just sets the bar so low.
