Hello! Playing Tears of the Kingdom more this week, just hit 150hrs. Also bee-n playing BattleBit on Steam so that's been fun.
BattleBit? What's that? Don't think I've heard of it.
It's a battlefield style indie game that does it better than actual battlefield, very fun.
It's like Battlefield 4 mixed with CoD, with a couple sprinkles of milsim and presented with blocky soldiers..
That being said, it's a hell of a lot of fun, if you don't mind dying often.
I’m existing been stressing cause work project is wrapping up. I need a vacation.
Can you take that vacation once the project is over? Or are you trying not to think about it so you avoid getting distracted?

I've been incredibly bored! I'm 5 or 6 episodes from finishing The Sopranos but can't bring myself to watch it 😎 I will later today though
Away on holiday and have immediately come down with a stinking cold. Boo! (Still happy for a holiday anyway)
I'm currently on holidays in Lanzarote. Will be returning home on Thursday.
It's going well. I just got my degree. I've moved, cat and partner is settling in OK as well (cat currently resting underneath the bush outside the door, partner in the sofa). Starting my new job next week, so now I'm just enjoying the summer, gaming and relaxing.
How was moving with a cat? Did you let them wander outdoors straight away or did you keep them in for a bit?
I know moving is something I'll have to do with mine at some stage and I'm so worried about how it'll go!
We've moved with our cat twice now and are preparing for our third. We're very lucky in that my partner's parents live in the same city, so we always take the cat to their house, leave her there while we get everything moved, and then take her to the new place once it's ready. That seems to stress her out less than moving everything while she's around, and she gets a nice vacation out of the deal!
She's maybe a little nervous for the first day or two, but always seems to settle in quickly. She also does this adorable thing whenever she goes somewhere new. She'll slowly walk along the perimeter of each room, mapping it out and sniffing everything, and when she's ready, she'll go on to the next room and repeat. It's really quite something to watch!
You know... Strikes and gutters
pretty well so far i had some great news i heard so yay
It is already too much. I am not looking forward to the rest. I am happy alyaza is here to share all the links to keep me from thinking about work too much. Thank you alyaza!
Not bad! Had my first shift in a new job last night and I LOVED it! It's just a part time thing a few hours a week but I really feel like I'm playing to my strengths in my job at last.
Had a bit of a wild weekend (happy pride!) so I've been doing my best to eat clean, exercise and take lots of supplements. Did my first spin class in years yesterday and it wasn't complete torture! Still not feeling 100% but I've definitely been through worse.

Got a job offer for basically my same job +25% pay. Hoping my current place is willing to negotiate a match though because going to a bigger company would also give me less freedom to work on what I want.
Waiting to call my boss this afternoon.
It's stressful, to say the least.
Pretty good. I passed my licensure exam on the first try and I'm the only person I know who did that AND took the test that others avoid. I honestly just wanted my life back whether I passed or not. I studied (or thought about studying) basically every damn day for the past month or so. FREEDOM!!!

Spent a couple days with my partner which was awesome but I'm coming down with a stomach bug so that's lame. Just learning Rust in bed.
cargo new stomach_bug
Take a nap!
My sleeping schedule is bananas. I decided to just give up, and I've been slowly going to sleep at later and later times. Currently my bed time is ~5pm. A month ago it was ~4am. :s
I'm new here and I'm new to Lemmy too. I'm excited to learn and be here in beehaw, yeehaw
It's going okay so far, but my area is forecast to have highs in the 100s later this week and I'm not sure how that's gonna affect me, since I only really know how to dress in layers for work (I'm a trans woman working an office IT job where I do occasionally step outside or carry computers from one bldg to another)
Like, I'm gonna be wearing a thin cardigan over a tank top and I know I'm gonna sweat. Oh, and my hair instantly goes frizzy when I sweat. I'm dreading it.
I gave my boots to the local cobbler (one of two in a 30 km radius) because the sole is coming off and getting hole-y. This guy, whom I assumed would have maybe a couple repair jobs every few months, is completely overbooked and thus I'll see my boots in maybe five weeks or so again. But, honestly, I'm glad for him that his little shop is booming (relatively speaking)
A lot of the older style trades are making a big comeback, so this isn't that surprising. Hopefully, others will see how booked up they are and open more in the area for you
i’m on my third day of a sore throat. doc confirmed it’s not strep, and i do seem to be slowly recovering, but ugh being sick sucks.
