Judging by my profile pic, clearly bananas.
So this run went almost entirely flawlessly, but the very beginning actually was the first time I've ever had to alert the phlebos for immediate attention (by way of loudly saying "ow. ow! OW!") for what ultimately was a minor overpressure issue.
Donating platelets is ultimately worth it, though

So is it pithy when I autogenerate a 128-character password and -- when told it's not complex enough -- just create the minimalist possible, least secure password that technically fits the requirements?
The answer is yes, even if it's not for a site I particularly care about. But it feels good.

Blorp! My melon mead, cleverly named "M5" after the number of melon variants involved, is well on its way to becoming a beverage that can make you fall down.

Starting up a new brew. This one will have lots of melon. I also did my first ever zigzag stitching on my pants, but no pictures until it starts actually resembling pants.

Well, after being dismissed and told Monday afternoon that I've earned a six year reprieve, the system has summoned me for jury duty after a much briefer than expected pause of... fifty-five hours.
I *like* serving on a jury, but it's pretty annoying being tossed around like this.

Platelets left my body really smoothly this time around. The poking guy really knew what he was doing!

Well, to make some Medieval garb I spent weeks doing research, cutting patterns in fabric and carefully sewing it all together. Then a friend randomly told me to just trace a shirt shape twice and connect them. Dang, it took me half an hour and arguably looks better than the more complex design.
