What are you doing RIGHT NOW?

Pondering why my manuscript's file size is gradually getting bigger even though the editing process is gradually lowering the word count...
Hmmm...

You know those weird vocalisations in the intro of It's my Life by Bon Jovi? OwO

Those croaks that kinda sound like a robot having sex with a bullfrog? Yeah, I know 'em.

[Leeward]

The "OwO" wasn't an emoji. It was an onomatopoeia.

[Contrast]

I actually thought those sounds somehow pertained to how my shrinking manuscript was taking up more hard drive space, and that you were about to launch into a clever explanation using Bon Jovi's music as some kind of metaphor.

Well, maybe you're halfway through editing?

I'm about 40% done, but my manuscript has been getting shorter, not longer, so I was surprised when I noticed the file size was getting bigger.

[Leeward]

If it's a word document, could be because of the formatting markup getting confused by the deletions and making redundant tags? I don't use word for this and other reasons.

[Adagio]

It could be the compression dictionary that's not being updated?

[Contrast]

It's not a big deal (we're talking kilobytes here). I just thought it was weird in an almost poetic kind of way, like a bag getting heavier the emptier it gets.

Watching League of Legends NALCS and procrastinating on a thing I'm doing while having more than copious amounts of wine.

Also got CS:GO...fps' and I are not good friends if my PUBG experience is anything to go on.

You should play some Deathmatch or Arms Race with Rakuen and I sometime...

[Rakuen Growlithe]

I'm sick. x.x

Some Con Crud?

[Rakuen Growlithe]

I dunno what it is. Came on yesterday evening and now I feel terrible.

[Rakuen Growlithe]

I see a little earlier today I got an email from work. A guy at work's contract finished on Friday and he made a farewell cake. Apparently several of us that ate it got food poisoning... I've got a bunch of cleaning to do once I recover.

[Adagio]

How do you mess up a cake??

The cream could have been off. Or hell, it might've been pesticides (if there were strawberries and stuff on there that weren't properly washed). Lots of ways to mess up a cake.

Or rat poison. Might have been an actual murder attempt. You never know... >_>

Writers would make the best murderers...

I just remember I got sick from some of my muffins once too...

The simplest explanation is that the eggs were probably a bit off.

I guess the omelette was a failure?

Spent the last hour flashing my phone, now on Android 8.1 Oreo

She's referring to Rakuen's food poisoning by cake.

[Rakuen Growlithe]

Feeling a lot better this morning but not sure if I'm well enough to go to work. That involves a lot more effort and stuff. Might be best just to stay home one more day and make sure I'm 100% when I go back.

I agree... I was forced to go back to work. And it took me much longer to recover as a result.

Oh.. ok! Now see that makes sense. Helps to read, feel like a chop now


Feeling very sore after todays Krav Maga session, had a new instructor that served 2 tours in Afghanistan. I took a few big hits and was mostly on my ass.

[Adagio]

So my server room finally got a door. I managed to set up both mu NICs, so now i can use my SAMBA shares without interfering with clients experience when using the server. Still having trouble with the steam caching server where the DNS service crashes. But as always. Once I have time I'll fix it.

The mine hasn't let me know when I have to go demo my product for the tender yet. Though, I'm proud at how it's working. I've never written an API in PHP before. And my SQL was super rusty! Lol!

[Rakuen Growlithe]

My lab's going to do an escape room today.

[Adagio]

Oooooh! I wanna do that so bad!
Lemme know how it goes!

[Rakuen Growlithe]

Got split into two teams and two identical rooms so we could compete. The team I was in won. With ~5 minutes to spare before time ran out. The other team... well, they needed help after sticking the wrong thing into a puzzle and being unable to get it out again. They did not finish.

[Leeward]

Went to Stelcon today. Watched the cosplay and got some new dice sets, and fridge magnets (power helmet and witcher medallion).

Experimented with making dice bags. Guess I'll add that to the Leeworks catalogue. ^^
