06/15 - Tasty Thursday!

I usually get up at 7am ET, give or take, during the week. I take the weekends off because I need to maintain some form of sanity, especially since I have ton of different interests (woodworking for example), so it's nice to have some downtime away from the PC a bit. Definitely have to recharge the brain every once in a while

 

Oh man, I have a memory foam with the cooling gel and 11/10, reccomend. Pillows are one of those things that can make or break my quality of sleep and it's either the cool gel memory foam (I have neck problems) or the fluffy AF down pillow or I am awake most of the night.

M-F after my "real" job .. starting around 10:30 to 4PM and usually some after that since I have nothing better to do.
On the weekends I peek in every now and then or set OW to run...

 

Now that Bearnie is finally starting to feel better, I wake up to his annoyed little face demanding things from me. Also Porgy with his face pressed up against mine to the point I can only get a picture of part of him.

 

I think they're really frustrating, especially if you get a short snippet with almost no facts to use to trick the computer. The instructions say to add more text if you want, but that you shouldn't add more text, and that the answers need to come from the original text, or the added text, or both.

The instructions are really vague and poorly explained, and that more than anything makes me upset with these. I wish we'd get more barter batches, those are my favorite to do while watching tv or w/e.

 

I just schedule four to six hours of sleep whenever after the morning rush ends. Normally grab the Evening rush, and hope for late night batches.

 

Come back naughty Pins I'm less than $6 away from goal!

 

Bearnie's funny little face is the reason for his survival. I couldn't resist that pink little nose and emo black mouth when I saw him all sickly and feral in the bushes near my old place.

 

My dog wakes me up at 6 AM on the dot every single morning. It's like having an alarm clock, but one that came without a snooze button. I'll usually start turking around 7 or so.

 

I have a boy cat that does that if he's in the house and wants out when I sleep. But I have pillows and flip flops to chuck at him.

 

We had pizza for dinner so Skeeter was very attentive.

He's a stuffed toy mutilator? I only buy mine toys out the dollar bin now, they usually last under 5 minutes.

-rant about outdoor cats here-

 

I have four indoor cats. Two outdoor. We tried to raise the boy cat to be indoors, but he refused and kept bolting out. The one girl cat that goes out, really just likes to walk around a little and roll around on the lawn.
