Humanity is backwards. We spend the prime of our lives chained to jobs that kill us inside, with maybe 2 days a week to live, only to get the chance to enjoy life once we’re old, broken and unable to do the things that once brought us joy.

Somedays instead of putting on pants and being an adult, I’d rather just watch Tremors.

I’ve always “joked” that my retirement plan is a massive coronary. But after giving it further thought, I need to get a better retirement plan. Not because I think I’ll ever retire, but if I did die at work, I sure as fuck don’t want to spend the afterlife haunting this place…

Well dear website, I’m a fucking fat guy, of course I will gladly accept all cookies…

Sorry to anyone who follows me here and expects me to actually post things. Lately social media has just been exhausting (I mean, life in general is, but you get what I mean) Eventually I’ll return to my witty and humorous pearls of wisdom. Until then, heres a picture of an ice fishing hut at sunset

Today we went live with our new inventory and order system at work. Hardly anything works, and I’m rethinking every life decision that brought me to this point. Happy Monday everyone!

I had an awesome dream last night that I was driving to work, and just drove past the exit and kept going, listening to music and driving. When work called I just answered by saying “I quit”
Then I woke up, drove towards work…and ended up at my desk 😢

So as if I have so much free time as it is, I’ve recently decided that I want to teach myself to draw. Now, I have NOT drawn anything since I was in middle school? Right now just getting a feel for it by copying some drawings. Here are my first 2 attempts..

Whoever decided that the days should be spend working rather than taking pictures, reading books, drawing or exploring new places should really be punched in the clavicle..

Why do people insist on coming to work when they’re sick?
We have PTO for this very reason. Stay home and DON’T get me sick.

Life hack - learn to read. I decided to have some rice pudding for desert and decided that it needed some cinnamon. So I reached into the spice rack, and added some…..cumin. Definitely not what I wanted to put in the rice pudding.

The toughest part of a Friday is looking like I’m being productive at work while mentally I’m making plans to go take photos or read a book or build a Lego set…pretty much anything other than work..
