Tiny Complaints

My hair doesn’t “take” certain colors because the undertone when I bleach it is quite orange. So purple just turns brown. My friend has the same color hair as me but her hair when bleached is more yellow-white. Purple looks amazing on her hair :slight_smile:

Hair chemistry is fun and so different from person to person! My hair also used to take dye without bleaching and it doesn’t anymore!

My cats hate the canned food. Boy Cat finally ate some after starving and begging me for some “real food” all day.

Well that’s your backup food, you little ingrates!

They really are such little ingrates! Kid-3’s cat only eats canned food because he will not drink water. BUT he will ignore a can of food that’s been opened for him for hours, even days, until a second can is opened. Then he eats the first one.

This cat is a perfect match for Kid-3, come to think of it.

I am almost done my taxes. I need one document. From a farish pharmacy, estimated value to me is $144. But covid19. Pharmacy isn’t picking up the phone, and their online refill service doesn’t have past receipts

I shut down Jupyter instead of halting just the one notebook I wanted to stop… I mean, it’s not a real loss, just irritating.

My library’s digital catalog reduced max checkouts from 21 to 10 and max loan duration from 21 days to 14. :frowning:

I guess this will keep me from digitally “hoarding” so many books…?

Apparently I have a whole bunch of single gloves. Including the two I put on to drive to work today, thinking they were a pair. (At least they were a right and a left!)

My contractor is going into quarantine and so won’t be working on the house for 2 weeks.

Silver linings:

  • he left behind a lot of tools and materials so I can keep working
  • 90% of the job is done
  • he and his employee are old-ish and smoke. They should not be taking health risks. Yesterday’s announcement of federal assistance for self employed people means they don’t have to. Good job, government.

I feel sick and I can’t tell if I’m actually sick or if all the bad feelings are nothing more than me being underslept/menstruating/allergic to things.

Some asshole mocked us for crossing the street on our walk/hike so we had enough space. Some grown ass adults on skateboards were purposely cutting close to people as they raced downhill and laughing and yelling things like “it’s my job to be an asshole”. Normally I love living in the city. Right now, I want to find a cabin in the deepest part of the woods and never come out again.

My child will not clean his room (a mess he made earlier) and claims he “needs help” but really he just wants an audience while he makes silly faces. At this point he has been yelled at by both parents, he was crying but has now stopped. This isn’t over. He won’t just go to sleep quietly.

I’m supposed to work more tonight but fuck I’m not in the right mindset right now. And oh hey it’s late enough now that I can’t make up enough time in one evening anyway. Fuck this bullshit.

It’s raining and cold outside. I started my garden boxes and finished one, but there are two more to go and I haven’t even cut the boards (which is a process with the equipment I have). I can’t work outside right now because my hands get too cold. I can’t dig anything because the soil is wet now. Showers were forecast, but I didn’t think it was going to rain quite so much.

My paint rollers came today (FINALLY) but it is too late to start anything because it will be dark soon.

Aaaaaarrrrgggggg.

It was raining all day (sometimes lightly, sometimes raining hard and once with hail) and I didn’t get a walk in. That means no house leaving today. :< Will try to do better tomorrow but I feel a bit like a sad dog looking out the window about it.

You probably feel much like a sad New Pup forced to be outside in it :rofl:

My husband said that he’s doing pretty well with being cooped up because if he gets the urge to go out he can just play Breath of the Wild. He’s only 5% joking :rofl: Maybe give that a try?

HAHA.
I’m generally doing okay. :heart: Better than Partner, who is already starting to twitch a little. She’s not as much an indoor cat as I am. :rofl:
