loopdokter yeah that’s fair, i’m actually the complete opposite. i can just get up and exercise whenever and sinking money into something doesn’t motivate me to keep doing it (see unused gym memberships).

loopdokter oh it’s way better than edmonton. knowing people that have lived in both places, i don’t think it’s that comparable. and our winters are getting longer and colder every year.

anything is better than alberta. add in the brain-drain that’s already started and this province is going to be detroit in 15 years. i like the interior of BC, beautiful place, weather is very tolerable, and i can run my business in a place like kelowna with no problems. because of the demographics there, i might even be able to charge more than i do here.

Matt the wife has been experimenting with that over the last 6 months and it really seems to keep her anxiety to a manageable level.

Thanks for all the replies guys. Appreciated. As the old adage goes ’what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger’.

Onwards and upwards as Ed abides by.

I just spent half an hour looking for my bar gig headphones (light headphones for not too loud environments). I keep them in my laptop backbag along with all my cables when I play a bar gig with my K2 and Traktor set up. The whole backbag was empty. Finally checked my laptop-bag (the shoulder-kind). Everything was there.

I must have emptied the backbag at some point after my last gig (which was in August) for some reason, and I have no recollection about it. I never do any backing for a trip or another occasion while drunk, so can’t even blame a blackout on it. My wife said she had nothing to do with it.

My father recently got diagnosed for alzheimer’s, and I’m not happy with this.

I can understand you worrying or being more sensitive to this given your father’s news (sorry to hear about him 🙁 ) - If it’s any consolation, I literally do this once or twice a month but it’s quite a common ADHD thing. If I don’t leave something where it always goes, it’s where I least expect it / where I definitely wouldn’t have put it unless I was in a (real or self imposed) rush.

Things like this also creep in on neurotypical people where they have been solid for decades but are dealing with something personal and/or tired and go more on autopilot - even with the most reliable of people - and is much worse during grief/trauma aftermaths, so give yourself some slack mate.

When you start dressing formally for a bath you’ll have something to worry about.

bosstrabs This is actually a great point. Bumbling buffoons with a sunny disposition in the workplace, like Smallman no doubt is. Breezes into a Zoom meeting, stir-frying ideas in his mind-wok, the fact that he’s the only one with any enthusiasm at 8am grabs the CEO’s attention, who then lets him skip breezily off, the ‘ideas man’ has just delivered an extra 200 non-billable hours of work to someone else’s desk. The competent person who actually has to implement it thinks about strangling his already distended neck and leaving his prostrate torso jiggling and popping in a grotesquely comic death dance, but having had a loving upbringing thinks better of it and just tops himself.

Pleased with the upvote for this 2 years later. One of my favourite posts.

whatever

bosstrabs

Ha ha yeah. Partly due to to being a post that I properly lol’d at but also because I had a reg and didn’t realise I was looking at stuff from 2 yrs ago. 🫣

bosstrabs have an upvote from me too Dave-o. Recognize game.
