New banknotes have been printed and the vending machines on campus don't accept them yet. I'd have to walk all the way across campus to get to the nearest cafe that won't rip me off terribly, and it's been raining constantly all day.

Edit: I found a cafe that didn't rip me off. Texture is excellent but brew or blend is mediocre, not sure which. I have mixed feelings.

Arx! How have you been? Apart from the new banknotes and related miseries. Are they really ugly ones with big plastic watermarks that make them stupidly easy to crumple? Our asshole government has been insisting on our monies being transferred to such a form as well. Two denominations so far have fallen prey to this malignant idiocy. Makes me so damn mad.

I just realised earlier this evening that Fry's Family Food Co is based in your part of the world! How cool is that?
Had a dank-ass sausage roll for my dinner, it turned out quite nicely.

You know you're not meant to eat the sausages from dank asses, right?

I've been... staying alive, I guess. I've been worse, been better. Buried in large quantities of university work, for the most part, and/or caught in really bad mental spins, but that's another topic.

Fortunately the notes are the same as the old ones in physical character, they just have different printing.

I have never run across this apparently legendary F'sFFC O_o. I will have to look them up at some point!

If they resemble anything like the ones in Canada, then they shouldn’t get destroyed in washing machines anymore so you get that at least. It’s saved me a few 20s.

Well, most of that doesn't sound too bad. I feel ya on the "mental spins" bit!
The main thing I'm currently procrastinating on is calling my possibly-qualified, low-key therapist-type-person to make a new appointment since I was out of state for a while... I've been back for a couple of weeks now. Oops.
It's probably good that you're staying busy!


In a new mild sad: my screen resolution just derped the hell out as I tabbed out of a fullscreen game, necessitating me to change it manually.
Now all the clutter on my desktop has been rearranged.

EDIT: I have to stop jerking off to my own misery. It's like reverse-narcissism, I just love to hate myself.

I have to stop jerking off

Isn't it someone else's job to fap around here?

[JoshuaFH]

Hey, no need to bring greatorder into this.

@Joshua, I read your post, and it brings up some valid worries. Have you talked to them about how you feel afterwards?

I think it might be better if I spend less time syllogizing about my worries, and instead actively ignore them. Just stop thinking about it. You know, don't worry be happy. That makes my emotional foundation seems very shaky and fragile, but hey, let's not worry about that either.

That feeling when you pull out the high-ish quality syrup that had been sitting in the cabinet for a treat, notice it looks kinda' funny, and then find out you missed the "refrigerate after opening" instructions.

One performs the Sniff of Forlorn Hope, but alas, the warning was there for a reason.

Fare thee well, maple syrup.

You were tasty, now you're not.

[TD1]

Did you taste it to find out?

I think not. Oh ye of little faith, whose mind (and nose) is hardened against musky maple.

[scriver]

Syrup is like 99% sugar though right? No way that went bad. Try it! We demand a try!

I open up Tinder in the first time in like a month, and apparently I had a match from a month ago that I just never acknowledged, and apparently since I've been gone Tinder decided to update the program to give little pointers, such as the one I got:

"Google how to not be boring"

Fucking thanks Tinder. Actually, piss off, I just closed the program immediately after seeing that it was so disheartening.
