This pandemic has changed people's card preferences during Cards Against Humanity. That has to be one of the more interesting social changes I have noticed so far.

Week 9 of home office: Our internet is broken. We have lived with it all week because it works for hours between crashes. It is degrading our functionality and moods. Tomorrow, someone will finally come and fix it. If they don't, I am just going to read a book for the next week.

One of the most disappointing new habits to come out of this pandemic is the daily check to see how many cases of Cov-id the US recorded yesterday. So far it has never brightened my day or anything positive. It just makes me mentally push visits home back even further.

Just found out that cats shouldn't eat peanut butter (never gave it to the cat) and that is comforting. Now all of the peanut butter in the house is solely mine!

I recently started leaving reviews on google for restaurants/bars that I like as a bit of support to these places. I only leave a rating and no comments so they aren't note worthy. Although my reviews are just a rating, owners comment on my review and that just makes it special.

So when is it time to start discussing the abolishment of the electoral college again? Seems like we should get a jump on it, just in case.

Me: puts ballot in the mail Brain: imagining that ballot is Frodo, carrying a burden as great as the ring Me: 'The hopes of free men rest on the smallest of shoulders', (crying from the implications of this election)

My one little vote mattered more than I ever thought it would.

Half #marathon and #pizza sunday with the @DOME_Vienna #running gang. #runningWithMicrobes #LCC_Herbstmarathon

Just stocked up on @ZotterAustria chocolates. 2 kilos of chocolate should nearly get me to Christmas.

I have started to get emails about repaying my student loans again, starting in January. How about we just leave those on hold for another 2 years or so and see how it goes.

With loan payments being delayed again, those aggressive and numerous emails about starting repayment seem more like harassment than a beneficial reminder.

The size of the covid test boxes in Austria has changed. They are now about the same size and feel as the original cardboard boxes for gameboy games. Now every morning when I am doing one of the tests, I get this super intense feeling of nostalgia.

Anybody else just popping onto Twitter once a day just to see if it is broken yet?

Things to do to prepare for unemployment (in no order): 1. Reinstall civ 5 2. Get a long-delay book series out of storage Those 2 steps alone should enable me to survive a few months of joblessness.

Phineas and Ferb's songs had no business going as hard as they did.

I am going on a 2 hour flight today. I have 9 hours of shows and movies loaded on to my phone and I am worried that it isn't enough.
