I'm sorry y'all. I know I've been far less than anywhere near consistent here of late. Or for a while, really. It's partly habit, or lack thereof, but it's mainly just life. My life. And not knowing where to start. Or what to say.
This month, so far, has been kicking my butt. Significantly so.
Which is almost funny to say after the last couple of years.
Rumour has it I'm coping and pretty well at that, but it does not feel anywhere or anything like that. Not at all.
I could use a break. Most especially a positive financial one, but relying on a lottery win is not really a solid game plan. You know?
I'm trying to get myself back to the writing routine I used to have but even on the days when I try I often am stumped as to what I might say. Or what I feel I can say. And then some days I'm just too upset/stressed/out of it to write. And yeah, some days I just need to give myself a break.
But hey, they're going to mess with the daylight thing again soon eh? That should give me at least the usual complaining to do.
So... yay?
Except... no. Can we already vote that thing away?
Whoops. Double Whoops!
I have an (older) Apple laptop, and some of you who do as well, may know the frustration of the charger cords. They are absolutely the weak point of these devices and constantly fray and break. Especially, it seems, for me, probably due to the angle of my cord compared to where it has to plug in and where I spend most of my time. So because this part breaks so much, I get tired of paying the $100 for the replacement I know isn't going to live all that long. Last time I got a replacement I tried to fortify the break point, but it still went. And then I ordered a slightly cheaper one off of Amazon. It didn't come from apple, but arrived with all apple branding, so... I figured it was real enough. *shrug* It frayed as well, and this time the protective coating was only slightly split so I left it for a while, intending to get some electrical tape to seal it up for a while. Which is why I was not so happy to hear and see it spark when I went to plug it in...
