Went to the zoo while high.
Sibling wanted to go to the zoo, so we rented an electric cart for my husband and the three of us went out. I decided as weed is legal here to do that as well
Turns out physical activity sucks less when high and there's animals to look at also
Cocaine.
Honestly, I don't see what all the fuss is about. To me it feels like coffee, but it only lasts 15 minutes, tastes like shit, and costs upwards of a testicle and a half where I am. And no, I'm not looking for anyone to try and change my mind on that.
because its too difficult to do coffee off sexy body parts.
You're only saying that because you haven't seen me brew coffee with my buttcheeks.
May I ask out of curiosity what led to the decision that this was a good idea?
Basically, it was in front of me, and I've got an unfortunate amount of experience kicking stimulant habits (I was an Adderall kid), so I figured I wasn't at any particular risk of getting addicted. I tried it a few more times after that and came to the same conclusion, so at this point I don't think I've touched the stuff in over a year.
Also I was drunk every time someone offered it to me.
Why not? Sometimes people like to try new things.
Some drugs are fun
I'm inclined to ask, are you sure you got true concentrated cocaine? I don't encourage cocaine, but it sounds like you got scammed with something the seller could more easily get their hands on.
Yeah I was gonna say… either dude drinks cocaine coffee daily or it was some shitty cocaine
Did a jewelry workshop and crafted myself a silver ring that looked dope af. That was enjoyable.
Bought an ebike. I've wanted one for over 10 years, and finally the circumstances were right for me to justify it.
Tiling a floor
How did it go?
It was only a small hallway (3,5m2) but it went better than I'd hoped. I'm really proud, even though I'll always see the imperfections too.
So great success
You should be proud of yourself! We tiled our kitchen backsplash. Everyone says it looks great, but i only see the one tile that's upside down.
Preserved and framed a 1500-piece puzzle I completed
Bought a book on programming. Have been doing hobby coding for a few decades. Going to dive into a larger project so trying to learn some better practices
Made a wattle and daub wall. It's surprisingly hard to get right.
What was hard about it? Also what was the wall for?
Well apparently a few things that nobody actually bothered to write down is what kind of mud of need, how hard you need to force it into the wood, how much fiber you need to add.
I mean, it's kinda like those old cookbooks that just say "keep in medium oven until done". Everyone just sort of assumes you have the Knack.
Its partly because I do reenactment, and partly because I want a shed that I made myself. This is mostly a test to see how long it will survive in the rainy Netherlands.
Moved out of my parents house to live by myself.
Took Dilaudid.

Had this really weird extreme pain in my side, felt like I had ruptured something. Ended up in the ER Tuesday. :(
Doc says that it's kind of like appendicitis, but because it's on the left side instead of the right they call it "Epiploic Appendagitis".
Nobody seems to know why it happens, just that it hurts like fuck and isn't dangerous.
Treatment is massive painkillers.
I finally hacked my 3ds, using the tools at https://3ds.hacks.guide. It was surprisingly easy, and gives you access to
I waited until Nintendo shut down their servers 'cause I was worried about bans, but now there's no excuse. Go liberate your 3ds, it takes less than an hour.
Called a tax professional.
How did it go? I need to do that but I've been putting it off for a year.
Not the person you asked, but in my experience: in the worst case you end up paying more for something that was rather simple, but in the best case they find some nice savings.
That being said, if you have the money and just don't like doing taxes, it's pretty fantastic to just send someone your papers and wait.

Hey my son’s name is Bort too!
I hit a major setback, thought it was going to ruin me, but instead of just accepting the failure and sliding back years in my efforts, I called some friends for support. They both independently told me that I was catastrophizing and not to give up but try assuming I would just sail past the problem and keep going. So I did, and sure enough I recovered really fast and I’m back on track again.
I had my first microwave burrito about two weeks ago. I'm almost 40 and my wife couldn't seem to believe I'd never had one.
Does three months count as recent? If so, learning how to make braided bread.
Riding my daughter's motorcycle.
Saw Primus. That was pretty dope. I always thought Victor Wooten was the best bass player, but dang, Les Claypool, man.
I've been traveling for the last 22 days. I've been to both countries before, so there might be fewer firsts than one might expect.
I did get to see the Large Magellanic Cloud. That was definitely on the list. I crossed into Chilean Patagonia for a day, if only to soak in some hot springs. I got to see Lago Llanquihue, Volcán Osorno, and visited Bariloche. That was all new.
Beyond that, it's mostly details. Where I stayed and such. It's been a fantastic trip.
I'm in Buenos Aires for a couple more days, and there really isn't much I haven't seen before here. It's just nice to be away, relaxing and enjoying all the little differences.
I suppose the big first is that I did all these things sober. I really, really wasn't in that condition 20 years ago. In that respect, it's an entirely different (and for me, a much better) experience.
Boat ride amongst Niagra Falls. Day before the total eclipse.
First time home buyer, so lots of firsts. First time going on a home search and checking out properties, first time shopping for a mortgage, first time going through contracts and legal documents, first time trying to find an inspector, etc.
Started up a custom PhP forum for a fan base community centered around my favorite board game. Forums are weird
The college club I'm in made mochi today. Never actually made it before.
All we did was use rice flower, water, and sugar as the core ingredients. I believe something like 6 spoons of the flour and water, and 1 spoon of water. Knead until mixed, until it's like Play-Doh according to the club instructor. Then make 6 mini balls, finally cover and heated in a microwave for a minute.
Was pretty messy and at various times felt like I was rolling mashed potatoes in my hand, but was delicious when it was done. Especially with soybean powder.
