My two year old son is just learning a few words right now. I’m looking forward to the day I can have an honest conversation with him, explain things using words, and get to know what’s going on in his tiny little adorable head.

Well then, these two go together surprisingly well

Moving out of Texas. Waiting for the school year to end, and we are getting out of this backwards state.

[–] vivadanang@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

Best decision I ever made. I knew I wanted to live away from DFW, but fam..... finally too many good job opportunities for us both were just not available in the south so we made it happen. Cost of living is higher but QOL is much better. Good luck!

Retirement… omg, retirement

[–] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 1 year ago

I've been wondering that for a while. I'll let you know when I think of something.

I think I’m the only person in the universe who is actually looking forward to the PlayStation Portal handheld being released in a couple of weeks. I loved the Backbone One but it was annoying having to take the case off every time I wanted to play on my phone. The PlayStation Portal will fit my use case very well.

I've been feeling a bit down lately but I'll be buying a new car soon so that's cheering me up a bit.

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not sure yet, but I've got some money saved up! It will be a used car but I'm ok with that

The end of all the Halloween stuff.

[–] Phen 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

like the season, or for people to stop caring about it ever?

There's no halloween in my country so I don't know how the experience is. Some folks tried to make it a thing here recently but then they had a bunch of kids going door-to-door and not getting anything from most of them and also some folks who prepared for it and never had anyone knock on their doors. Everybody ended up disappointed.

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

The season.

It never really caught up here, but marketing people are still trying to shove it down our throats. And the US people inundate the online spaces with it for a whole month.

Although it wouldn't make any difference to me if it vanished altogether.

I've got about 50 books "saved for later" on amazon. I expect to have the spare cash to buy them all sometime soon.

[–] radix@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Hey, that's great! I hope you can have a nice cozy winter and read through a few of them.

Finishing off my pc build I'm excited to get it all done and dusted

[–] steeznson@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Looking forward to this weekend when I'm finished giving the best man speech at my friend's wedding. I'm sure it will be fine but the knowledge it is coming up has been intruding on my relaxation time this week.

[–] NorthWestWind@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Exam paper checking so I can take a photo of the inkling I drew on the paper

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 1 points 1 year ago

Going to see Godzilla Minus One at the end of the month. That's pretty much the only thing I've been excited about in the last year or so.

People using the correct English words.

[–] Phen 1 points 1 year ago

oof, I'm usually careful with to/too but this time it went over my head (I'll ask for forgiveness based on the fact that I was still half asleep).

Not a native speaker either, but I'm well aware of the difference so I can't pull that card here.
