One of my regular customers is a factory that’s been around 100+ years. My contact there was a maintenance man who retired and was difficult to replace. The young guy that replaced him gets caught jacking off on security cameras. They give him a stern warning and he gets caught jacking off again. Fired.
“Come and knock on our door…”
I was going to say black licorice
Keep a musical instrument nearby. I have an acoustic guitar an arms length away. That might not work for you due to your lap dog. A harmonica or jaw harp would work better
Doing things you don’t want to do is part of being an adult. It may sound silly but my method is to write a list of what needs to be done. I feel a little pleasure every time I cross something off
No regrets
Embrace it. Buy yourself a pair of skis and suddenly it’ll never snow enough
It changes daily. Lately I’ve been listening to a lot of Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. Thanks for asking
Their taste in music. Sorry but if Pink Floyd is your favorite band i have to assume you’re boring
Of course not i don’t talk with my mouth full. I was raised right
If there is still a camera shop near you, It might be worth seeing what used gear they have. The one near me has cheap kit lenses, look for a used telephoto lens and a DSLR camera body. You can take fine pictures with old gear, you’re not looking to be on Sports Illustrated. YouTube has plenty of instructional videos for every make and model of camera. More knowledge will get you better results than top of the line gear.
Edit: I just looked at the used gear at B&H website, you can find a body and lens there for $200
Started a savings account
I’ll never forget my dad bought a used Renault Alliance because he saw an old Consumer Reports magazine that had it as “car of the year”. What he didn’t see was the article where they retracted the title. It was a money pit
The trick is to not think out loud
I hate buying something online then I begin seeing ads for it
When my little terrier/chihuahua mix was a puppy she would give me a “hug” first thing In the morning. I’d sit up in bed and say “time to go to work” and she would put her front paws around my neck and press her face against mine. She eventually would do it on command. Then she had surgery to correct a luxating patella (knee cap pops out of place) and never did it again.
She also used to drag herself across the carpet with her front legs, back legs dragging behind her. We would call it “swimming”.
Being part terrier she is very smart but also stubborn. When our senior dog passed, I taught her lots of tricks. One trick was to ring a bell when she wanted to go outside. I rigged up a donut shapped toy she could paw that was attached to a spring with a bell on it. She refused to ring it. I know she knew what to do, she just refused. When she wanted a treat she would paw the cabinet just like I taught her to paw the bell/toy. Eventually I gave up. Fast forward to a year later. We get another puppy and as soon as I try to teach new dog how to ring the bell she runs over and slams it. From that point on she slams the bell ten times a day.
I quit playing video games in my mid 30’s. Pretty much went cold turkey. Why would you want to start now? Plenty of healthier things to do with your time
