I went and got an eye exam last week. The new glasses came in today, and it seems that something messed up somewhere--the prescription is way too strong. Nothing is any clearer than it was before, but my depth perception is out of whack when I wear them (it feels less like actual depth perception and more like a 3D movie,) it takes forever for my eyes to refocus, and turning my head is super disorienting. I've just gone back to my old ones for now.

I want to eat something insanely decadent and unhealthy. Like, "Hamburger with stuffed pizza slices for buns" levels of heart disease. Sadly, no such food is forthcoming at four in the morning.

Wait, what? Where do all the drunks get gigantically packed kebabs early in the morning where you are?

Presumably being wasted confers the ability to summon such foodstuffs at will.

Going to a hearing with a client in about an hour. There's vague hints in the air that my client might have lied to me about some facts regarding what has now become a lawsuit. Nnnnngh.

I mean, thats his problem and its him who'll suffer the consequences if he did lie, but I still have to deal with it since I'm his lawyer, and I'd rather deal with things to which I haven't been lied about.

I tried to fix a fault (that some say is planned obsolescence) in my PS3 controller. I did everything as instructed on the Internet by others who had the same problem, but it didn't work. At least I didn't break the controller any worse.

Cat just got on my lap and farted.

Bleh. Know, know so very very much you don't really have grounds to blame a dog for having shit owners. But it's getting increasingly difficult to remember that when dealing with this neurotic little bastard of a dog. I'd be tempted to strangle said owners, but most of the fault lies with its previous one and I think they're actually dead.

Am getting more tempted to start pushing for getting the thing through actual professional obedience training, though. Dog needs better behavior to keep from killing itself (or injuring its current owners -- it's a fairly small dog, but part of its lack of training involves being very insistent on pulling a leash if it's being walked, and it's enough to provide that extra little bit that can take an older person from standing to falling), and I'm becoming increasingly incapable of managing the will or the base physical effort to work it towards that. Also the only one involved with the capability to even try. Rest of the folks dealing with the damn thing are too old to do anything but make what efforts I'm managing less effective. Which means both not getting help and being actively (albeit unintentionally) undermined.

Getting to be a bit depressing. Other than the psych disorders and the complete lack of training, it doesn't really seem to be that bad of an animal as such things go, but those are enough this is starting to get rather intensely draining and the consequences of failure are good bit unpleasant. If absolutely nothing else, I'm pretty sure burying a dog right now would actually put me in need of a hospital. Limb or two's been giving me some trouble and there's even odds the effort would take it from "some trouble" to "get treatment or suffer permanent injury"

Some hobo smashed a hole in the bus stop shelter (it's mostly safety-glass panes) with a shopping cart. Still hasn't been repaired or even covered in plastic, three weeks later. Only freezing to death a little bit.

It's one of life's great cruelties that a metal thermos which keeps your drink hot is itself ice cold on the outside.

What a fucking stupid hobo.

My beard has a hard time growing on my chin, while it has no problem growing under it. But at least it's very soft and pleasant to touch. It's somewhat ironical that I have troubles with growing the beard/moustache despite being hairy.

Literally received the instruction to just copy-paste another paper and "put it in my own words." Even though that doesn't fucking make sense, isn't the point of the assignment, we almost certainly will be called out and receive a shitty grade for it, and it's two versus me, and I've already annoyed the professor by having to change groups once because my original members dropped off the face of the Earth.

I nearly threw my phone out the window, this class has been unmitigated disaster start to finish.

At least missing and hitting the sill seems to have put a bent corner of the battery cover back in its place. Yay.

Talk to the teacher.

Just finished the first season of Santa Clarita Diet, not realising that that's all there is so far.
No idea when there will be more episodes. I should have paced myself better, to savour it more... although I did watch it pretty slowly. Couple of episodes a day, that doesn't count as 'binge-watching', does it? Man I am keen for another season, that was unexpectedly excellent.

"Adam Jensen Does Safety Dance" video got copyright strike and is no more on Youtube. I also can't find the original VEVO video, the one with a dancing midget.
