What Are You Doing?

nice score. Airpods aren’t cheap to buy.

 

No, £129 on Amazon. I don’t think I can risk trying to sell them, though, as these places run Apple products through a database to check they haven’t been reported lost/stolen.

 

I’d just use them, although my ear canal is tiny and they probably wouldn’t fit me.

 

So, uh, my mother died just around Easter, and I've mostly been looking after my father since then. He didn't take it well, and under the circumstances I can't blame him. Probably should have mentioned all of this sooner, just been a lot to deal with.

I'm fine, by the way. If anything, I've started to feel more creative in recent weeks than I've been for some time.

 

And therein lies the irony. I hardly ever listen to music, and pretty much never on the go.

 

I’ve been listening to a lot of podcasts lately

 

blowing off networking at a work related conference to play wow

 

Battling negative/mean thoughts and frustrations.

I blew off some frustrations at the gym last night. Went around 11pm and left around 1am.
Was at peace.

But i feel the frustration creeping in again

 

Just signed up for a 5k in July

 

Sympathies at a difficult time. May she rest in peace.

 

I was watching the Denmark Finland game and it's been hard to focus on the rest of the day after witnessing that. I cannot believe they resumed the game a couple hours later. So glad Eriksen is stable/responsive.

 

Sorry to hear about your mother. May she rest in peace.

 

That's some crazy tequila.

 

Finally spent the weekend building up a pool table for the first time. Quite the difficult task to get the thing perfectly in place, but after a lot of work, it plays quite well. A little cramped in the garage, but I'm happy with my weekend's work.

Spoiler: Progression to Completion

 

very very impressive

 

Have to go give a short talk on prairie dog language to a summer field science camp of ten year old kids this afternoon. Less than enthusiastic only because it's going to be so darned hot and we'll be standing in full sun. I am a shade girl myself.

 

Prairie dog language???
Where can i book you?

 

Careful. I can talk about prairie dogs until your eyes cross. If you're really interested, look for Prairie Dogs: Communication and Community in an Animal Society by Con Slobodchikoff. You can also find a list of articles at https://conslobodchikoff.com/publications

 

@Friedrich Kugelschreiber , what kind of ground rodent is your avatar?
too chonky to be a prairie dog. too red to be a marmot

 

Ain't he a badger or a woodchuck?

 

hyrax's arent fluffy (at least the ones i've seen on nature videos )

badgers have adorable black and white faces and arent rodents.
Lol, im going with woodchuck, too

 

I thought woodchucks and marmots were regional versions of the same thing? And it looks like a marmot to me.

 

"Groundhogs are also referred to as woodchucks or whistle pigs or land beavers. They are a member of the squirrel family. There are six species of woodchucks and marmots that occur in the United States."
