Trying to sneak in some last minute reading before the year ends. Have to add more graphic novels to the finished list, but I may be able to sneak in an actual book or two this week too.

Also have panic cleaning though to prep for maintenance to fix my toilet. Did some this morning, but want to get more done so it looks like I'm in the middle of spring cleaning and not like a person who never cleans because depression is strong.

oof, sorry about your panic cleaning.

i'm in the middle of another Warriors book right now, it's due next Wednesday, but i want to see if i can get it finished by Saturday... aka, the end of the week/year. we shall see.

Eh. Panic cleaning turned into panic shuffling of items because I'm still too exhausted from dealing with my family for Christmas to care what maintenance thinks about my "in desperate need of a thorough cleaning" apartment.
Cleared the area they'd be working in and that's a that matters. xP
And I'm slowly working on actually getting it clean. Gotta de-clutter....everything really. Need to work on a much more minimalist approach to stuff especially with how small the apartment is and my limited storage space.

Ah, I need to read those eventually! Go go go! You can do it!

i totally get this. when we moved, we lost a little bit of space for things, and i have a lot of stuff. so maybe this way i'll be less cluttered and have not that much extra stuff.

It's just too easy to hoard stuff. I solemnly swear that I will declutter and de-stash everything in 2023!
Part of it is dependent on my friend though as I don't have a car, so getting donation items out of the apartment is something I need them to help with. And they're good at saying "just let me know when" and then not following through on it. xP

I actually have like 3 boxes of books, my old TV, and 2 large boxes of clothes and toys all ready to get taken out currently.

[trystan830]

oh that's.... awkward.
i'd come over and help you out, i'm 5 hours closer than before i moved! XD (of course, i'm still in PA, so still a bit of a trek...)

[Kaderin Triste]

Lol. It would be pretty amusing if you came all the way just to help me declutter my apartment.
xD

[trystan830]

but it could be interesting :)

[Kaderin Triste]

Very interesting indeed. And I could pay you in tarn! lol

[trystan830]

is that kinda like yarn? XD

[Kaderin Triste]

I hate my phone.
Yep. Exactly like yarn in fact!

[trystan830]

oh i know what you mean..... i use speech-to-text all the time, and sometimes it just doesn't understand me.

[Kaderin Triste]

I really just need to adjust my autocorrect settings. Half the time it switches to the wrong thing because I fat-finger the wrong starting letter and it can't figure out that "rscape" is "escape", not "roosevelt" xP
I mean, that example is a bit extreme, but it's not too far off from actual corrections it's done before.

[trystan830]

I totally get that. Sometimes my auto-correct only sees the first (incorrect) letter, not the word as an entirety, so I do understand your example exactly.

[Kaderin Triste]

Turning it off is usually the first thing I do when I get a new phone, but I was too lazy to do it. Might dig around in the settings tonight and fix that... >.>

[trystan830]

ah, gotcha.
autocorrect and speech-to-text can be amusing at times.
I'm also fluent in Typo-ese, too XD
