Y'all are making me miss living alone.
I mean, I've missed it for a long time, but yeah.. man, I miss coming home to an (almost) empty apartment. An apartment that was clean at least.

Well ive been doing that for about 19 years....i think i got the hang of that side of it pretty good.
And I'm on the opposite of this. I guess is never truly greener on the other side huh
Its not about the grass being greener, i never fell into that mind trap. Put it this way, the pandemic has not effected me in the least. It changed nothing about how i interact with people. It changed my work around, it caused me to wear a mask while out......but the loneliness thing, the not interacting thing, all the stuff that is causing angst and depression to so many, i dont even notice it. And yes i largely like my solitude. But the one thing i lack, is not that i dont have a relationship, its i just mentally cant do it....and thats what bothers me.6 -

Where do we go to vote for deleting all the "Drop A Word, Add A Word", "Same Name Game", "Drop a letter, add a letter, remove a letter and change a letter" discussions?4

Yesterday I asked my teenager if he’d like to, at some point, have a little party of friends over and he said, “No, I don’t trust you. You’re embarrassing.” I am partly hurt and partly proud of both of us for reaching this milestone. Also I worry about him giving too many *kitten*.6

😵😱 But why though? While I don't play the ones you named as often, Acronym Game is my marmalade, jelly and jam. Look, "jam:"
Just accept many....

Completely random thought hit me this a.m. I started the water for doing dishes, then ran down the stairs to get a couple things in the basement. My mind went to 'what'll happen if I fall and break my leg on the stairs/have a stroke/ pass out' while the water keeps running and running.
Why does my mind not automatically go to happy places? Like Happy Gilmore?4 -
That today is Dec 7th.
Dec 7th 1941, the bombing of Pearl Harbor.

I have those all the time. What if I drop this knife and it cuts me. What if I fall down the stairs when noone is home? What if something wacky and dangerous happens while I'm lifting. It's like these little warning bells that say... Hey! Be careful here.
They can be pretty freaky!1 -

Uhm... I have random terrifying thoughts about car crash scenarios as I'm driving... sometimes by myself, sometimes while my son is with me.
I want to blame the fact that I've been in multiple accidents (only one in which I was driving). It may have contributed to the weird thoughts/fears I have around driving.0 -

Thank you for the reminder.
It was a pretty dark day in American history when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor.

Breaking is going to be a part of the 2024 Paris Olympics (along with sport climbing, skateboarding, and surfing). Other than wondering where exactly Parisiens surf, I picture...

I would have expected something like that out of Imperial Japan not the Germans. Go figure 🤷♂️4 -

Back to logging again. Day two and my mind is POSITIVE I am starving it. (I'm not, I promise.)
So far I have turned down mindless snacking on sunflower seeds, fruit snacks, chocolate and chips. (who shops for this family?!?). Now I remember why I used to work out for more food. Lol5 -

Good job on refraining from mindless snacking! 👏

I just read that Chuck Yeager died at the age of 97.
If there has been a greater American of our lifetime, I'm not sure who it would be.

Pretty much the embodiment of the modern American legend. Sad day.
We were stationed for a time on the base where he ran the sound tests using the Bell X-1. There's an entire museum there open to the public (should they want to visit it) despite it being on a military base (was Muroc Army Air Field, but is now Edwards AFB). If you visit, they have the Bell X-1E on display as well as numerous artifacts of when Yeager was present and a few interesting paraphernalia you can read about. Glamorous Glennis is, of course, in the Smithsonian as part of the Air and Space museum.
The museum is really interesting, because it really gives some clarity and insight into the film "The Right Stuff", which is a favorite of mine. And now I wonder how all the guys at the museum are taking this news. They're a bunch of really cool (retired) aviation specialists or former military in some regard, so I imagine the news will hit them hard. 2 -
$1200 for a car service. What the hell did they do? Replace parts with gold? 🙄4

We've apparently come full circle in the realm of Colonel Sanders now. There was the weird reverent "documentary" Japanese television networks broadcast around Christmastime in Japan. Then... the weird dating sim "I Love You, Colonel Sanders!" (that I happen to have on my PC) and now... this. WTF Lifetime??

My heart aches for my ex. He has managed to do such a number on his kids' hearts that they want nothing to do with him. They've been living with me full time for over a month now, and as Christmas approaches, neither of them want to see him for Christmas (in fact, the thought of even seeing or talking to him makes them anxious).
And my heart hurts. As a parent, I can imagine how much he is hurting. I know how hard this will be for him, and I KNOW he feels that this is all my doing. He doesn't see how much I have tried to soften the negative feelings, how often I have tried to help them see other viewpoints (including his). I don't want to see him suffer, I don't want him to lose contact with them. But at this point, it is no longer in my hands.

Sadly they never see that they did it to themselves.
My ex years ago told the kids when his gf got pregnant that they'd never amount to anything because they've too much of their mother in them and that he was going to start again and make a better family ( true story) that was just one of many examples. Yet today years later he blames me that 3 of the 4 have not spoken to him in years.9
