@Bonnie: You saying that reminded me of a podcast I'm into. By the Book, and the ladies did a nature book a while back, where one of things was to get outside for 5 minutes daily or summin'. So, they had to find ways to do that with their desk jobs, haha.

Motivation is important, but my motivation sucks. So, I have to rely on my "life or death" play up of things. Having exercise connected to my work/pay helps a lot in that sense.

@Bonnie: If I didn't commute bike, I'd skip out on the exercise fosho. Partially why I'm planning to enter a physical labor industry. Congrats on making baby steps to your health. :) Every little bit counts.

@Eruca: Finally got that chance! I really like how chill it was then it hyped up, haha. I'm not big on instrumental music, so that was a nice change of pace!

@Totalanimefan: I wish. I don't live near central downtown, and the public transit only goes to and from downtown rn. On top of that, my tires are too big to load my bike in the bus, so I'd have to leave my bike chained nearby at the bus stop. Maybe one day that'll change, or I'll learn somethin' new.


@Bonnie: Fosho :) I always look at how healthy I am now, since I eat well and exercise!


@athabm: Holy snowballs, I had no idea it was better to ride on lower psi when it's snowy out. I'll def remember that, thank you! Luckily I can handle with just a couple of thermal layers for 30f +. Once we hit 20s, tho, I just wear my snowboarding coat. It works out prettay well.

I'm sure once I move, I'll build up a pretty collection of gloves. It'll be colder and worth having more there! Maybe even just knit some. I'd have to find decent yarn tho.


@Jolly: My hubby walks 3.7mi or so rn. So, he understands your pain. He's always telling me about how, on the road he has to walk, assholes come from the center lane, to the one next to him trying to scare him, or splash him. If he biked, he could at least get them back by using the full lane, but alas, he's not into biking, and I'm petty.

@milkdaddy: Major congrats! Job hunting is hard af, so I'm glad it finally fermented enough to pop off the cap! I hope you enjoy your coworkers, and get a good work enviornment going there. :) Will you be giving tours or something of the like?
Posted in Do You Like Bread, Too? Posted 4 years ago
If so, surprise!


I finally got myself a loaf pan, so this is my first time making sandwich shaped bread! Turned out pretty well. I am still trying to successfully make an open crumb bread tho, so wish me luck on future attempts.

Thankfully there was no rain on the trip home! Just cold and that's ok with me.

@Kitalpha Hart: Fair enough. I got lucky in those regards. Apparently bikes can. I read of some Colorado lady who biked 20mi twice a day in snow and stuff. Depends on the tires, and rider's balance I guess.


@vengeance: Ayyye, fellow biker. Oof. Mum saved the trip. Strong winds = the bane of my existence. I now almost refuse to bike in 10mi+ winds.


@PurpdaBurpPurp: Yep! Altho it's max 5mi from my house. I usually work 2 jobs and wind up with 18mi in a day. I can't do more than that rn xD It is really nice tho. I hope I can start going to & from the store.


@Bonnie: Aw, I got in an accident while riding my bike, too. Actually happened 3 months into my start of commute biking. I'm glad there's at least 1 positive! I'm about to heat up some hot chocolate.


@inatlaka: Here, lemme offer you some e-hot choco.

@Eruca: Apparently it's currently disabled: Checked here.

I'll have to give that a listen once I get the chance next!

And I bike to & from work. It's also 40f/5c. T^T If it was dry: I'd love this weather, but naw, it's rainy. Luckily, it's only sprinkled thus far, and my home's only 3mi away, but still. I'm a bit worried about how bad it's gonna be when I head home tonight. Anyone else do commute biking?

@Totalanimefan: Same. I'm so bad at finishing games because of my hop around habit, haha. I played Children of Morta yesterday. It's such an awesome rogue like game!
Posted in Drinking Games?? OwO Posted 4 years ago
Movie drinking games are popular here. I usually just look up rules, then do a house vote to determine 5 we'll play by. We did one yesterday playing a rogue genre game, where we'd drink everytime we beat a dungeon or boss.

We would do drink when you lose at a card game, too, or had to go fish. Charades is a great game to drink to, too!
I don't like dishes. Fite me. They're never ending, especially because we cook at home 4~6 nights out of the week. I also don't like picking up, and organizing everything. Especially the stuff loose in drawers.
Posted in What's your favorite podcasts? Posted 4 years ago
Oohh, I enjoy The Adventure Zone and several of their spin offs (Sawbones and the etiquette one). I've seen a bit of the MBMBAM & Jenna & Julien Podcast but couldn't totally get into it. You may like The Official Podcast and/or The Misfitz. Those are in a similar genre of goofy guys talking about goofy shit, and can be found on youtube. The Misfitz may bring up a different Misfits podcast, so look for the rainbow one with a z.
