I used superglue to stick the aerial socket back onto my main Freeview (UK digital OTA television) DVR box, yet again. Hope I don't ever manage to knock it off again! It's always nearly impossible to avoid the glue getting stuck to your hands, I don't like that.

Ouch. 😖 That was a bad one. I've never broken a toe from getting it stubbed so that really sucks.I stubbed the holy living hell out of my toe a couple of days ago on the way into my room. Stubbed it on an exercise machine. When you stub your toe full force into something that's made of heavy steel, you won't forget it. The nail is pretty much black. part of the toe is solid purple. The whole toe looks a little crooked (probably broken). It pretty much hurt all day on the day it happened no matter what I was doing. It basically hurt because I was conscious. Yesterday when I woke up, the pain had subsided some and it was tolerable. It looks terrible right now but at least it isn't pulsating with pain.
Saw a coworker crying in the bathroom and some other girl trying to calm her down standing next to her. Never seen a coworker cry before.
The trash barrel in my kitchen is starting to overflow. But trash day is right around the corner on Wed. So I don't want to put in a whole new trash bag just for 1 day. But I also don't want want the trash to overflow onto the floor. So I'm stuck in this crazy game of chicken with my damn trash barrel. I know I'm temping fate by not putting in a new one but hey that's how I roll.
Bored & messing on my phone at work counting hours
Got my new front teeth(dental implants) today, 
I have a Hershey bar sitting in the fridge calling my name but I accidentally bought the one with almonds in it and I hate almonds.
Congrats. It must be horribly embarassing to lose your teeth. Especially the front ones. I think it was probably pretty common back in the day so maybe it wasn't as big of an issue but these days, people are expected to have them all in perfect condition so it is quite embarrassing if anything is even slightly less than expected.Got my new front teeth(dental implants) today,
God where do I begin? had some introspective thinking about how humans interact with one another. I just think a lot.
my flatmates stole my mail again
well not so much embarassing as self dissapointing, I fell off a train when I was 17, thats what broke the teeth off, I got crowns so that made me look normal again, but forty years later the roots started to get infections, so extraction and implants or a plate was the only option for me,Congrats.

I had to spend a fair few bucks out of my modest savings on the implants. My new car money is gone...
Oh, OK. I guess I just assumed you had lost them somehow. I have had countless nightmares about losing mine (and not for nothing because my oral hygiene is not the best and haven't been to a dentist since the 90s).well not so much embarassing as self dissapointing, I fell off a train when I was 17, thats what broke the teeth off, I got crowns so that made me look normal again, but forty years later the roots started to get infections, so extraction and implants or a plate was the only option for me,

Still, at least you got it settled.
A grandaddy longleg got on my arm. 😂
There was a dead, black spider on my cover. Funny place to find one dead. 😐
I'm slowly getting things moved into my new apartment.
It's a nice place, but there's just a little more space than I actually need. My one concern is that I'm constantly having to fend off rebel starfighters from making attack runs down into my trench. Thankfully the landlords put a grate over the exhaust port.Oh nice new digs. Looks like it can fit a lot of furniture.

My sister still wants me to work at Amazon. But it seems like a super depressing place to work and they'll treat me like 50x worse there. Doesn't sound that worth it to me. I keep telling her they'll treat me like crap there but I guess she thinks I should work there. Idk. Just doesnt seem like something I could handle in the slightest. Haven't heard one good thing about it.
Well, it seems like a lot of people do say they don't treat their workers well and there's probably more than a grain of truth to something you hear this often. Sometimes I wonder though. Do they mean that they treat their workers worse than anyone else or that they are such a huge and successful company that they could afford to treat their workers better than most companies do? It's hard to know without digging into it.My sister still wants me to work at Amazon. But it seems like a super depressing place to work and they'll treat me like 50x worse there.

I am sure it is probably high pressure because of the tight tolerances of the type of business they do. I mean when someone orders something from Amazon, they expect a perfect experience every single time. So that's zillions of things all going on at the same time and every mistake matters. Like if someone doesn't get their package or it's a couple days late or something, the person most responsible will probably hear about it. But I don't know if it is really worse than anything else if you were to ignore the fact that it's Amazon and just look at it as a job that pays X amount.
The commercial building just next to home that has been vacant for years, it's official finally. It's going to become a Starbucks and a Sonics. That should be very convenient. Although now I kind of worried about the traffic and street parking.
