    I made two offers a few months ago on Reverb for the same flanger pedal, forgetting that I might be stuck with them both. Luckily one of the guys agreed to reject my offer.

    Cooking a duel portion of frozen fish, because that's apparently how it's packed. I don't even know if I'll like it yet. I guess if I don't, the stray cats will get a good free dinner.

    I've done the same thing; popped in an offer on one listing, then found the same item with an even cheaper starting bid and made an offer on that too, totally forgetting that if they both accepted I was lumbered. Luckily neither accepted.

    I did that often with bundles of baby clothes for Hope. Though you can never have too many bodysuits or onesies.

    finally getting around to eating....

    Havent eaten since maybe 10 or 11 this morning. watched some tv....played with my ferret.... started writing. havent stopped writing since. I finished Part 1 of my WIP, and only just now realized that I'm hungry and that my butt hurts from sitting for so long on a barstool.
    good grief...

    All of that sounded so normal until you casually mentioned your ferret :-D

    indeed i do own a ferret. he is my 2nd ferret in fact.
    I was the weird kid with unconventional pets...saved up my money when I was in middle school and bought fire bellied toads. when they died (3 kept getting out of their tanks...i was down to 2, and the bigger one drowned the smaller one, then the bigger one got out of the tank somehow and committed suicide by cat...), i saved up enough and my mom made me promise that if she took me to the pet store, i'd get something "normal" that had fur...... so i bought a ferret.
    She was not amused.

    now I have another one :bigtongue:

    I just assumed it was a euphemism.

    I'm going to hell.

    Alright, so it's right 6 AM and I just got up. No, I'm not a proactive person, I just didn't sleep. I went to bed at 2 AM right, but stayed on my phone until ... well 15 minutes ago. It didn't feel like 4 hours. Total blur. I can go 80 hours on zero food and I'm fine, but sleep just takes me deep and hard from day one.

    Drinking so I can go to sleep. Gotta' be up in 7 hours if I have any hope of making it to work on time.

    God give me strength.

    I'm such a lightweight that a single IPA will send me right to sleep.

    Wish I could say the same. Can't tell if tolerance or not. But this is the "What are you doing" thread, not the AA Meeting thread, so I guess I'll save that discussion for elsewhere.

    What IPA do you like? If I drink beer, it's usually Bell's Two Hearted or Coors.

    It's tolerance for sure. I used to drink vodka straight for an hour before I got truly drunk. At that time I was drinking every weekend, though.

    I like Brooklyn East IPA and fruity IPAs. People will call them chick beer, but if it's good, it's good.

    Doesn't drinking before bed mess with your REM sleep? You might fall asleep quicker but it won't be a good sleep.

    Right, but psychologically I "feel" so much better knowing I at least fell asleep and went through part of the cycle, compared to what I would normally do right now is lay in bed until 7:30 AM and then get up.

    At which point I'd feel tired the moment my shift started, and I'd hate myself.

    My sleep schedule is always effed up, and I'm a bit of an insomniac.

    What I SHOULD do is drop the big money, get me some CBD like I used to. Can't smoke weed because it doesn't sit right with me, tl;dr.

    So did I.

    Yeah, apparently ranine is the scientific adjective for frog-like. I had to look it up.

    Alright, last last post for the night.

    Hoping I "wear-off" most of this alcohol I'm ingesting before my shift this morning in 5 hours.
