  • I've been having brain zaps for about a week now and just generally not feeling right. Sometimes my heart feels a bit heavy and worn out. Tinnitus acting up. So despite really wanting to get things done today, I'm having to pump the brakes. I've been lying in bed a couple extra hours after a light workout this morning. I can feel brain zaps waiting in the wings and I'm trying to stave then off. This is not the day I had planned but I guess it's the day I'm going to have.

  • I just ran the washing machine with dishes in for the first time. It feels like a Christmas miracle. 🥲

  • Phase three of the Christmas tradition: Eat cereal and milk and watch something nice. This year it was the rest of the second season of Don't Hug Me I'm Scared. The ending was less climactic then the first but it was fun hanging out with Red Guy, Yellow Guy and Duck again!

    Now on to phase four: New video games. 😄

    @bluetea I did some of my first searches last night and I can see what you mean. It is very nice. I'll going to keep testing it out, but I'll probably try to find friends who want to band together and bring the price down through the power of friendship.

    @DippyGeek I used StartPage for a while and I can't remember what turned me off. I know the interface was part of it but I'll give it a second chance!

    @Allyn I remember I saw this Christmas Lampoons movie VHS cover when I was younger and thought it was a horror movie 😅

  • I think, for many months now, I've been on the cusp of becoming the next person I'm meant to be, and that scares me. It's like taking off training wheels or going to a new school. I'm nervous. I'm scared. But what if, maybe... I just set fear aside and.. took.. that... leap...

  • I was sitting here being like I'm forgetting something in my Xmas tradition line up and then it hit me... I need to make the eggnog for tomorrow! (Don't worry. I have the stuff. I just totally spaced that I have tasks to accomplish because what I'm really waiting for is 20:00 so I can eat some of that sweet, sweet raclette. GET THE CHEESE AND POTATOES AND CHARCUTERIE IN MY MOUTH!!!!!)

    And yes, I'll probably be tooting a lot tonight. 🐘

  • Everything is in place for a nice little solo Christmas. Third year in a row! I have decided the customary film (Arrival), and the game for tomorrow is a tie between Expedition 33 and a combo of The Vanishing of Ethan Carter and The Beginner's Guide. It's mostly down to if I feel like I should spend that money. After the major purchases last week, I should slow my roll

    Doing this holiday alone is one of the best decisions I even made!

    @CryptoPorter Okay! I think there are some other search engines that proxy through Bing? I thought I read that somewhere, but I don't remember which ones

    @bluetea Yeah I'm going to sign up for a trial and see how it goes. If I'm convinced, I'm going to see if I can get together 5 more people because that brings it down to 35 euros a year, which is doable. The other plans are a bit too expensive for me, but maybe I'll love it so much and not care?

    Wind rushing by my ears

    Woosh, whack, whiz
    As I wake up
    To a once hidden nightmare.
