Some new records, including this gorgeous translucent green 12"...

Just this morning, took my time poopin a poop

A quality lightweight 10/22 bolt especially for subsonic rounds: Firefly Bolt 2.0

New shower head. Can’t wait for it to show up.

I preordered the new Katamari game that's coming out next week. I'm very excited!

I bought a bambino plus espresso machine with a vs3 grinder!

Will be fun to get real coffee at home.

Bought some lavender bubble bath and had a 2 hour hot bath with a book and relaxing music.

My girlfriend and I had a weekend vacation based on food, wine, weed, walking in the woods and a night at the observatory for a guided stargaze. Wasn't cheap but we really needed it.

Canceling going to a birthday party.

Canceling going grocery shopping.

I bought a 12€ Smartwatch recently. (Crazy what you can get for very little money.)

A new eyeshadow palette, highlighter, and two lip products. Here's a photo from the brand's promotional materials because I haven't received the shipment yet:

£10 ear buds, my 10yr old ones kind of still work but don't disconnect when they go back in the charger so are frustrating as hell. Worth it

Comic-Con. Had a blast.

A nice hike in the Tramuntana, in a long interval between thunderstorms.

Made cookie brownies (brookies?). They were pretty good.

Ordered some nice handmade leatherworking knives.

The irony of it is that I accidentally sliced off a sliver of fingertip the other day with my current one. Damn things are like miniature guillotines, but if nothing else, it's a testament to my ability to sharpen a round knife

I got my nails done. I’ve only had fake nails once, but I went to a wedding and I wanted to look nice. I got gel nails in dark blue with a cat eye finish. The ladies at the salon were super helpful and picked out a good color that matched my dress. It was awesome, but I don’t regularly pay $85+ for something that only lasts 2 weeks. I’ll get them removed in a week and get a basic manicure to help my nails recover.

They do look pretty fabulous though 💅

I'm slowly allowing myself to eat more after a long history of dealing with an ED :)

A motorcycle, always wanted one and figured now is a good time.

Three ingredient peanutbutter cookies.

Lunch.

It's Friday afternoon. Good time for beer and papadums.

I bought a new soldering iron, though I had a few before this. They were usually the cheapest I could find. This time however I splurged a bit and bought one with temperature control.

Pasta roller. Not a super fancy one. Made some whole wheat pasta yesterday with some pesto from a friends basil garden.

I had a margariga in a glass as tall as me.

I've been getting Dental work done recently, and it's across the street from a harbor freight, so after each appointment I've been going there and buying a tool or two. Just bought a flex head ratchet yesterday.

It's better than buying fast food i tell myself, which I've stopped doing for the most part. (If I'm out and about with people, or there's something limited time that I want to try sure, but otherwise i haven't bought any in a couple months)

An absolutely delicious banh mi. Also drugs.

A pair of boots. Never owned one before. I can finally splash on puddles like in the movies

I did well on a couple interviews today so I walked down to the local cafe and had a chai latte and a maple bar.

Tomorrow, if I do well on that interview, I'll go walk downtown and get lunch at the local thai restaurant I like!

I got a mechanical keyboard after researching a ton on which one I wanted. second-hand, so I was a bit restricted to what was offered. I'm getting a Keychron V5 Max, which I'm then going to mod with some new keycaps, a tape-mod and possibly filling it up with foam. The YouTube channel Hipyo Tech has been on the top of my YouTube binge list the last few weeks.

A 36€ m710q Thinkcentre tiny.

You know, as a backup for my m710q Thinkcentre tiny.

I went for a run yesterday because I was feeling miserable. It really helped. Today I made 2 big pizzas from scratch.
