Need to find a series or a movie to watch.
The boyfriend was recently getting short with me because, unbeknownst to me, he had quit smoking. Didn't last long; he's smoking again.
We've been through that before but this is cyclical with him and his work.
First he is bitchy and hates the world because overtime has been cut out. Then everything breaks and overtime is back in place and he's a happy guy. Then he forgets how pissed he was about not having overtime for while and gets all pissy because he has to work overtime.
I have learned, finally, not to let his moods hurt my feelings. Mostly I don't outwardly react. He's a misery loves company kinda guy.

I have a propensity for being verbal when I'm stressed and upset. But it's common for others in the field, as well, to find comfort in complaining. Truth be told, we're all just gluttons for punishment in an underappreciative workplace.

Yelling at me won't make his life easier...I assure you.

I feel like I'm running a temperature. I'm not, but sometimes the perception of my body temperature gets out of whack. I'll see if some Tylenol helps.

I've either got covid or a cold. I developed a ragged cough towards bedtime. I'll have to test myself later.

Every day since I got my newest laptop, I’ve completed the Microsoft Solitaire Daily Challenge. And then this happened:
There are several YouTube channels that explain how to solve every day’s given daily challenges. NONE of them have been able to solve it. And, incredibly, this one claims to be an easy problem.
Microsoft’s response was apparently along the lines of “they call them challenges for a reason.”
