And the parade of packages begins!

Online shopping.

One of the great boons of the interwebs.

 

[Apisto42]

Hm, maybe I’m doing this online shopping thing wrong. None of my purchases are exciting.

Most of my excitement is that I didn't have to go out and deal with the crowds.

 

[Endless_Night]

Oh, and new integrative leach field thingy today.

Wheeee!!!!!

 

[investor2020]

Does that mean the "thingy" collects and isolates all the leeches into one place ?? If so, hope it is outside !

Definitely outside.

In dome shaped little cages.

 

[Endless_Night]

There is no current crisis at hand.

I'm not quite sure what to do with myself.

 

[Endless_Night]

Aaaand, it's looking like ye olde 400 pound stove is soon to be functional.

Today.

 

[Endless_Night]

Aaaaaaand, as the integrative leach-y thing is complete, I'm going to take a long hot soaking bath tonight.

Because I can.

It's shaping up to be a quotidian kind of day.

Perhaps a little shakeup is in order.

Perhaps a little shakeup is in order.

1. Everyday; commonplace.
2. Recurring daily. Used especially of attacks of malaria.
3. Occurring or returning daily.
   "a quotidian fever"

You think you have Malaria?

You could go Christmas shopping. In public.

That should cure your desire for something different real quick.

Enny, I love it when you send me to the dictionary with your posts ! A little research was necessary . . .

• The earliest known use of the word quotidian is in the Middle English period (1150—1500). OED's earliest evidence for quotidian is from before 1393, in the writing of John Gower, poet. quotidian is of multiple origins. Partly a borrowing from French. Partly a borrowing from Latin. Etymons: French cotidian; Latin cottīdiānus.

Been there. Survived that.

Instead, I drove into, and through Houston. During the shopping season.

I considered alcohol, but collapsing in front of my laptop seemed easier.

Been there. Survived that.

How?

How? How? How?

I'm glad someone appreciates me for something.

(Also, I had no idea of the etymology.)

I feel like I need to take up something I have no talent for, like a language, or puzzle solving, or higher level math.

My neuroplasticity needs a workout.

Develop psychohistory for real and predict the next great disaster of human society and how to stave it off.

Or cut to the chase and cancel the next Taylor Swift concert.

That might cause a disturbance in the space time continuum.

Worth it.

Love it!!!

But I kinda think we might already be there.

Then, have you thought about professional chess?

I can play. But, darn, it's so hard for my ADD brain to stay focused on strategy. I'm such a "what you see is what you get" kind of person.
