Local retired Santa stopped by for a chat, is still doing Santa despite that retirement. I used to keep his suit at the shop.

Looks like it's time to check the humidifier settings. The cat is giving me little static zaps.

If you always have a sale, it's about the same as never having a sale but with more work and increased risk of running afoul of laws regulating what you can call a sale. Maybe just sell good products at fair prices?

Found a chunk of metal (looks like part of a Christmas decoration) in my lunch today. Glad I noticed that before I swallowed it. It looks like it could have done some damage.

Considered buying bagels but the front most pack of a different flavor was growing mold.

Cat rubbing her head all over that hand.

Hit Roli's black Friday sale. I like my seaboard block but keep wishing I had more keys. Opted for a rise 49 to fix that.

Windows machine at the roaster (which I really wish wasn't Windows) needed a restart. It started doubling all the keys presses so to type in measurements I had to type every character twice, select the last 2 characters, and press backspace so the doubled event would remove the extra 3 characters.

With a new Gundemonium remake out, what are the odds of a PS4/Vita release for Hitogata Happa? I'm better at that one.

Wanted to get some of this done yesterday but deliveries would not stop showing up.

Ate turkey and birthday cake. Now I'm at work sorting out the new coffees that arrived yesterday.

Dog shows should have a mutt category.

Fediverse instances have the best domain names.

Whenever I'm about to put on a VR headset the cat runs over and expresses concern. Depending on the game I'll usually let her sit in my lap and get head scratches while I play, which calms her down.

Suggestion for next Tetris Effect patch: pause the game if the controller runs out of power.

Everything hurts and you probably don't really need blockchain.

I'm usually pretty generous on these surveys because I know how messed up some companies are with these, but this situation was egregious and the only thing saving it is that the situation was eventually resolved.

Got the survey for the support ticket for the replacement laptop fan. Given that they sent the same wrong part twice before getting the right one sent out and it took nearly a month of having a mostly unusable system, they got a 2. I used the comment field to let them know how they could have gotten a 10 along with an alternative in case they didn't want to actually empower the more competent employees to do the full job that could have gotten them at least an 8.
