This weekend is my 30th birthday (yay I guess) and is also the last proper free Friday I can get until the new years break. So I decided to get together what little of a social circle I have left and have a nice round of drinks, been a while since I've had a nice round of drinks with some of them. But hey, Croatia just had to go and win that game today, and while I'm super happy for them I am also not at all looking forward to every single god-damn pub and bar being besieged by hordes of people who've been drinking for several hours now. Again, nothing against folks being drunk and merry, I just don't feel like I have the energy to deal with that shit at the moment.

And calling it off this late would be super shitty to the few folks who actually can come and would mean I get to skip having a birthday party of a sort for my 30th.

Mildly upsetting :I

Are there no quiet kind of pubs where you live? Some jazzy places, maybe? They're less likely to have that kind of crowd in the first place.

Even if there were they were all caught up in the frenzy.

Anyways, turned out my worries were mostly unfounded, or rather, after a few drinks you kinda catch the energy of the place and just have a pretty good time. Saw some folks I haven't seen in years, just randomly picking the same bar as we did. Also got a number from a girl, or rather, my friend aggressively sold me to her and then just took my phone and told her to type in my number. I wasn't even trying to get anywhere with her, she just approached us because apparently she's related to one of our highschool classmates or something. Still, was cute enough and a mutual friend claims she's a sweetheart, so I have that potential date to worry about too :V

Still, damn good night at the end of it, even if I am bloody hungover and have to work today

I mean you did beat Brazil so I understand the frenzy even if I wouldn't have liked it either. That's not a normal win that's a super victory

Croatia were finalists at the last World Cup though, so it’s not that out of the ordinary, and they did win the previous round via shootout also, so had the experience.

The goalie did rather well though, I think over the two shootouts he’s saved four or five penalties, which is quite ridiculous.

Currently cramped under a mobility walker and groceries because the car isn’t big enough for all this crap, and we aren’t even halfway to a fish and chips place two hours away. My nan will not accept any other chip shop than this specific one several towns away.

She didn’t even use her walker, because she brought her cane too. At least the food was good.

She just made my mom stop and do a u-turn because she saw a chocolate store she wanted to look at, but now that we’re parked she doesn’t want to go in anymore.

Ran out of propane. Dinner didnt cook as a result, ate crackers and cheese. No propane means can't run the generator, so no power. No generator means no water. We're snowed in so we can't just go fill up the little tanks, and the gas company won't deliver until the 16th, if they come at all with the road conditions as they are. They also won't deliver more than 100 gallons if we aren't present on the day they show up, which is how we ended up in this situation.

Basically down to hanging out in the cold being miserable for the rest of the week and praying somebody is home when they show up. But I have orientation for the job I'm starting on Wednesday > friday too. So if I'm gone, and mom goes to town for some reason, then we don't get a full tank of propane, and they refuse to come finish filling it until the next scheduled month, so well run out of propane early again.

I've come to learn that my mother is just not responsible about these things. I don't trust her to make sure someone's there on the day, but I can't risk losing this job.

Forgot to take my dogs to a walk today, it isn't a big problem because they have garden to use but I still feel like I am losing focus.

I saw the kids show I used to watch a decade ago.

And I am now confronted by my own mortality.

MAKE IT STOP-

MAKE IT STOP-

Know the feeling, today I realized what people my age usually do, time pass so fast.

Have you tried not watching the show to see if the feeling passes?

I spent a fucking grueling two hours shoveling four inches or so of heavy wet snow, and my body is letting me know in no uncertain terms it is unhappy with my behaviour.

It’s also snowing again.
