Continued the perpetual cycle of brush cutting, around the water tanks this time because little snakes, both dangerous and not, love it there. Cleaning out the filters of leaves can get one close to areas said snakes like when using the ladder to ascend the sides. I don't like long grass near the house regardless. I like a clear de-wildernized zone between wilderness and habitation. The rain will make cleaning them necessary. Cleaned gutters (leaves are always falling around here, which is fitting). Went over many a painful memory because sometimes you have to consciously. Day to day stuff (no, I don't think it's odd when there's just a row of the same shirts on a clothesline). Thought of good things to counteract the painful things later on.

Operation Autistic Loser: quiet, as expected. I still see you, whomever you are. Jeans are smartish. Shirt colour, not so much. You were fairly quiet after the first stick snap though.

I learned that on a diet of yogurt and pistachios, you poop quite prodigiously.

All FF contacts for the month done. Tossed one grenade back to where it came from and put out a fire. All metaphorical, of course.

Prepared breakfast for 27 hungry relatives at a campground in the Philippines. Mabuhay!

stripped a fitting, removed some skin from hand, and didn't complete task
ate some chili

Dropped off a gift at a friend's house, packed up an item I sold on eBay, started on the LONG process of migrating my usage from one PC to another, dug a bunch of stuff out of my storage "boxes", made a LITTLE progress on organizing the small camper I now call "home", texted with some old friends, made some foam insulation inserts for the roof vents in my camper to keep out the single-digit cold that I expect over the next three nights, dreamt of the better future that awaits me a few months hence, thought about how I'm going to rig up the 1970s-era Sony two-way car speakers in this camper to a modern Bluetooth amplifier, cooked some eggs, cooked some sausages, told "Alexa" to heat up my bed electrically, dranks some Kratom tea, peed in the plastic cat-litter bucket that serves as my bathroom here in this $60-per-month rented camper, stored some packing materials in the "back room" of the camper in anticipation of more eBay sales, looked at some cool electic motors that I received from an eBay seller and that are now blocking part of my meager floor space before I get them packed away in storage until I can "flip" them back on eBay, watched Rick Glassman interviewing his fellow cast members from "As We See It" on his YouTube channel, and typed this message...

Got a new charging cable so my iPad works again.

Chemist. Everyone talking about people they know with SARS-CoV-2 (no masks, lol), and I'm standing there with my P2 and surgical on. 'Hey, Dill!' Sigh. Vacuumed. Fed some Magpies, which I do now and again, but I've been trying to make sure they don't rely on me. Crows eventually catch on when I do it a little more, albeit they're far, far more shy, and will only go for it when I'm gone. I also feel guilty that the young female Magpie that was bitten and died might have been hanging around certain areas because of the food/water (I tend to blame myself for everything, yeah). Day to day stuff.

Pulled out ye olde hunting recurve bow and did a little shooting on water bottles against the backstop. Did good enough. Generally, if you can hit the center of a small water bottle at whatever range (closer is better regardless), you're good for hunting.

swept snow off bridges
sorted gas fittings
cleaned backhoe's air filters and helped grease zerts
ate some chili
showered

got outta bed, wondered "what now?"

Buying a birthday present for my NT sister's high school frenemy whose birthday is this Sunday.

It was a gift card from a popular cafe near our home for $10.

Charged my way through end of the month contacts. Finally finished the POR. What a waste of time, but required.

I got my fireplace repaired by a very handsome handyman.

I did the math, and I'm quite certain my bad luck is contagious based on proximity and also how close I am to the individual. Stomped my feet up and down the driveway multiple times as the water covered my sandals fully. Splish splosh. Received some photos from the nice neighbors showing that the mitigation methods against flooding in the local area aren't working all that well since last time. Day to day stuff. Activated my new [pink] debit card. The woman laughed at me when I asked for pink like a decade ago (not a bad laugh), as it was probably odd that I'd choose such back then (I guess things are a little more socially acceptable nowadays). I had my own reason for that one.

Worried about the waifu because I'm silly like that (not Svetlana or Yulia ).
