Today's work mood is resisting the urge to buy a bag of Easter candy and call it lunch.

.. though a bag of Cadbury mini eggs is 16 grams of protein.

Restarting Balder's Gate 3, again, because it's been so long I have literally forgotten how to play.

The amount of requests I get at work that boil down to "Just throw some AI at it! That will fix it!!" Are increasing and I feel more and more like the image below...

Yes, they do in fact taste as good as they look. They're filled with blood orange caramel.

You can't always get what you want
But if you try, sometimes
Well, you might find
You get what you need

Me: can you send the file from the exact dataset where you're seeing an issue?

Them: sure! (Sends comparison file)

Me: ...

Me: no, not the comparison file the literal single data point I asked for the first time

Mission accomplished. Both ears re-pierced. Moonstone set in titanium.

...now do I wait for these to completely heal before redoing the second hole on my left ear .. or just until next week 🤣

Yes, I wear foundation. Yes, I live with a man. Yes, I'm a middle- aged fag. But I know who I am, Val.

Thinking today's the day I get my ears re-pierced. Stopped wearing earrings 20ish years ago when I was desperate for a job and in a much more conservative area.

Feeling very, "Yes, I'm a middle-aged fag" (without the sponge painted walls)

For one last name they were made to leave France (Huguenot).

Another part, hated kings (presumably) because they came over from Belfast, became a general, and died in the Rev War in PA.

And for a very, very small section an ice bridge.

The rest? No clue.

Is the vibe also crashing at 35 when you realize you aren't your job but without it you have no personality or anything at all interesting to say?
