Zoning out during a meeting at work.

Hiding in the back office at my job, trying to remind myself that I am, in fact, a human being and not a machine.

Taking a shit at a friends apartment.

Waiting for my wife and child to come downstairs so we can visit a friend.

Waiting for my daughter to fall asleep. It’s a long drawn out process following the daily ritual where she gets out of bed within 2 minutes saying “I can’t sleep!”
Then I have to bring her back to bed, sing another lullaby, and pray to whatever sleep deity that will listen that she will stay put this time.
Today appears to be a good day, I can hear her slurping from her water bottle but she’s staying put. Hopefully she’ll be out in another 5 minutes. I wonder who I have to thank this time, Hypnos?

The background, I have no idea what I'm seeing.

Waiting for my work day to be over so I can go take a nap.

Taking a nap while on the clock

Playing Ape Escape on a PS1 emulator! Honestly PS1 games just have this charm that's still unmatched

At the laundry. Clothes were supposed to have been dry, dryer failed to work for the first hour. So now I sit here scrolling and hoping for the best.

[–] Kojichan@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

High, watching a Mr. Plinkett review of the Titanic, and scrolling through here.

Enjoy FFX again! Love it a lot. :)

Right now I can't enjoy it if dark yojimbo keeps killing me despite having max Defs plus auto protect 🙁

[–] Kojichan@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Oof! Dark Yojimbo... Yeah. :O I remember him being a beast. I think I remember using Anima or the three Sisters to help.

Good luck!

Watching the women's 10.000 meters final. Kenya vs Ethiopia apparently!

Gold for Kenya!

At this very moment? Working for another 6 minutes before the end of my shift.

After that? Eh, probably sleep, if my stomach will actually let me that is.

[–] shinigamiookamiryuu@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

Getting dressed.

  • Finishing reading 'Paradigm Shifts, Typewritten Tales of Digital Collapse', a short stories collection focusing on the use of... typewriters, and written on typewriters by their respective authors.
  • Taking some notes, while reading that book.
  • Replying to your question, while I'm...
  • ...sipping a cup of coffee ;)

Trying to muster up the energy to get out of bed and do the fun things I've planned for today.

[–] TriflingToad@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

waiting for my dad to finish driving in circles and take me home after a workout (he plays pikman bloom)

[–] Resol@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Spending some time on my ~~pahoney~~ I mean phone after getting out of the shower.

I'm also on holiday in Taghazout because why not.

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Every time I've scrolled past this post today, I've been slacking off in some way.

Awfully rude of you to bring this to my attention.
