I just had this call with my dad.
I am a bit behind on chores so I was complaining to him all the things I am doing today, and how great it was when it's done.
And he just casually said; 'don't forget that it's probably going to rain the rest of the week. today is a nice day'.
So now I'm going to sit in the park for a bit before I do my groceries... the dishes sure don't mind if I do them tomorrow instead. Get yourself a parent (or friend, or stranger on the internet) to remind you to enjoy life every now and then! (and remind your own friends when you can
Speaking of going to the gym... I did another dumdum yesterday.
I biked to the gym in my gym clothes as I do when its good weather... but it wasn't, it was raining, one of those that feels like a drizzel but within 5 minutes you are soaked.
So I worked out while soaked, full soak (now sweat) biked back trough the wind and raind, bought breakfast, biked home, waited an hour to shower... and now im sick :D Like I said, I'll probably never learn -.-
Does it have anything to do with not having to deal with change? The amount of coverage/protection/insulation ect. being consistent rather than changing with how you feel like dressing that day?
I catch myself, while shopping clothes, always for the same cut of clothes for the same reason, even going as far as getting cranky if the material/thickness of fabric I am used to is not available for the print I'm liking. Maby an extreme example...
But all the people I know personally who stick to either shorts or long pants come high or hell water tend to have a lot of traits where they either appreciate consistency or... no mainly that now that I think of it.
I remember going for a walk with a friend midwinter, underestimating the distance, overestimating the temperature (i mean, it -was- snowing, but that meant nothing... right) So we went out in our tshirts and shorts.
In the end, my mum spent 2 hrs trying to turn 2 goth smurfs back into human boys. I'd say I learnt a lesson that day, but one must not tell lies.
I havn't yet, might later today. But I'm convinced its a gpu thing at this point. Might have bashed the hdmi cable a little to hard in the port trying to install it or something dumb like that. Its the only thing that I can think off that slightly makes sense, as it was working perfectly 5 minutes before, and nothing else has happened (other than plugging in an HDD, and I already tried unplugging that)
it has power. I can use the buttons to select the channel.
The only place where my pc seems to recognise it is in the monitor selection screen of my gpu drivers.... i cant select it there. Not sure if it recognises the monitor or if its just a ghost from having previously recognised it.
Edit: a different hdmi monitor or cable give the same result. "no Signal"
Honestly, I didn't really bother ordering them.
I tend to only go trough my games when I'm either looking for something new to play (in which case I already kinda know what I want) or when I'm super bored, and then I'm gonna go trough most tabs anyway.
It's mostly just nice to have the junk filtered out ^^
Oh my dad is very much like your mum. He's just getting a day older an more mellow :')
