I have a pretty busy day tomorrow so I want to plan out all my stops so I can do things in sequence without getting tired or wasting gas. I also want to sleep in and be finished early :P . I hope I can get everything done so I can relax on Friday.

Ideas out... But do ideas in and happen?

Oh my... More progress since I found this this cipher. :lol: I just keep moving and moving and moving...


Before, the changes only happens few months at a time. Then barely happens a month at a time.
Then it's every half a month at a time...
Should I... Put the ante up to weekly? :heart:

I seriously need a more organized compilation of... Of these collection of data.

How much I dislike summer and the super warm weather and how excited I am for fall.

Seconded. Fall is my favorite season.

I think Karl's grandson is leaving the stickers.

It's certainly not Karl cos although I saw him at the park today, I'm 40 years his junior and I'm not as hung up as an NT on 'age appropriate behaviour' and I would see it as not age appropriate from me.

I don't disapprove of the kid doing it though. I approve of it, I like the stickers.

I don't disapprove of the practice in general, only when the stickers say things I disagree with or that are likely to cause offence.

That author who was rude to me when I went to her book signing.

Put me off the books.

I started talking about when her book first came out and she realised she was dealing with an adult. So she was uncomfortable so started being rude to me.

Just cos of how I look.

Considered going out, withdraw a few cash...
Just so I could get a personal supply of flavored coffee.

And time went weird on me for the past 3 days.
I can remember how long it felt, but at the same time it's too fast.

Just so... So impatient, somewhat itching to try my contacts. But not yet... I may need it when work comes.


Then... My mom's planning a surprise party for my sister. Just the 3 of us at home.
Sometime before my sister go out the night with her buddies.

Then so do a change of my tracking paces. While I have valuable data right behind me, I also had to draft another new ones. :(

I think the reason why other people don't love their families as much as my family love each other is cos mum nearly died when I was a kid.

So I faced the risk of losing her when I was far too young for it.

I know so many people my age who live with parents. Most of them are non-disabled NTs.

And I know my great cousin who lives with his mother. He's in his 50s, NT, never left home.

In his case I think it was a bad idea cos she is homophobic & there's family rumours that he's closeted gay. And she always wanted a daughter, not a daughter, and she spoke in front of him about it. Even if he's not gay, she wouldn't let him have girls over.

I think as long as the parents are tolerant of the fact the kids are grown ups, the 'kids' pay rent and do chores and everyone takes care of everyone else when they're sick/elderly/in need of help, it's a good system.

My cousin is NT and she lives with my auntie, my uncle and her boyfriend. And she's an adult with a professional job. It's nice. They don't want to move out cos they love the parents. They'll only move out when they need the space (eg want kids) or want to live in a new town.

And quite a few of my mum's friends also live in new extended families ie they moved out then they moved their parents in when they got old. Again, to take care of the elderly in their family. Good system.

From where I live, this is... Normal. :o

Most Fridays, I go to an old time drug store in a nearby town to eat lunch. They have an old time lunch counter that, except for the prices, would make you think it was the 50s or maybe the 60s again. On Fridays they have a chicken fried steak special.

I usually go between about 3 pm and 5 pm for lunch. When I was a kid driving a tractor, we would eat in shifts. My dad would eat then he would trade off with my brothers one at a time. I was always last to eat and by that time it was usually about 3 pm. I liked it because my mother watched some soap opera back then and I hated having that as background noise. Eating at 3 pm, it was nice and peaceful.

Before covid-19, it was usually been nice and peaceful to eat lunch any time between 2 and 5 pm. The lunch crowd would be gone. I'd often have a restaurant to myself. With covid-19, I guess more and more people are trying to avoid crowds by eating a late lunch.

Today I got there about 2 pm and the first thing they said when I ordered was that I was early. I must eat there too often.

By the way, if you go there to eat, wear your cowboy hat. The waitresses there may be too young for me (I think that they are about 19 or 20), but they sure are cute and I do enjoy the added attention I get from them when I'm wearing a cowboy hat.

Yes, it seems to be something that is only a 'problem' online.

I think it's based on the assumption that if you live at home, you don't cook and clean for yourself or pay rent. Now that would be a problem cos the person wouldn't learn the skils required for when their parents die. But that's not the norm.

Only other thing wrong with it would be if someone wanted to travel. My cousin spent her gap year abroad then came back home again, most people I know did that. Personally, I would've moved here regardless but mum fancied moving here too, esp the more I went on about the advantages of it, so we moved together.

Hmmm... Observation tells me it's a growing trend abroad.
Elsewhere, I'm not sure. It's certainly nothing new around the east.


There are observations; the respective caregiving attitudes, and how a house treats their elderly.

The former extends to the disabled, the crippled, and the very young. It's like something about the respective domestic and household cultures.
The latter is more or less about transitioning generations, productive years and ageism.

Each cultures with different circumstances.

In my culture's case, how we treat our elders is usually partially traditional, partially practical and partially sentimental.
It also happens that my culture is infamous for it's domestic attitudes. :oops: It's almost a stereotype elsewhere.

I was on our shared Wii Fit and I'm confused.

I was on the exercise I've seen mum on and never used myself. But she was only on the leader board 3 times? Nobody else on the leader board. Leader board of 10 spaces. 7 of them blank (I filled one so now it's 6 of them blank)

So now I'm confused how she spends her time on it.
