I sold off or trashed all that worthless garbage and moved on to reading books non-stop. But that flame is also burning out and I'm running out of interests to hyper focus on.

Not_Enough_Gravitas Link ParentGood thing they're dime a dozen at Walmart! I take one with me camping/fishing all the time. One is stainless steel and the other clear glass with an obnoxiously blue LED illuminating the base of it.Good thing they're dime a dozen at Walmart!

Edit: wondering I'd I did something wrong, or more accurately I did something right since not being nagged all the time is great.

Comment on Japanese workers in their twenties turn to resignation agencies in ~life
Not_Enough_Gravitas Link ParentAmazing how different the culture and cultural expectations are between east and west!Amazing how different the culture and cultural expectations are between east and west!
I used to dislike the holidays greatly. The whole family drama, being forced to attend religious services, the sloppy levels of drinking and arguing etc.
These days I ignore it all, don't attend any religious nonsense, and don't drink. I show up, eat the food, and enjoy the moment for what it is - another holiday spent with my family, a family who is aging and who one day will be gone.
