A couple of my colleagues have those ergonomic wonders. I'm not so keen, even though or because I have a bad back. I've a solid, cushioned chair upstairs, no swivel and no wheels. Just need a table and I'm relocating.
 
One time back in college I was third in line for the stairs behind a pretty girl who got there first and an annoying guy who stomped after her. I needed a subject for a poem so I decided to pretend he was stalking her and write something deliberately creepy from the man's perspective.

Found out later that he actually was stalking her... she disappeared for months just to get away from him and nobody knew the whole story until much later.

Anyway, that was creepy.

Kind of glad neither of them ever got to hear my poem.
 
I may be one of the few people of my generation who has never had so much as lit a cigarette. When I was required to carry one in a theatrical production, someone had to show me how to hold it. How was I to know one didn't use the thumb and index finger?
 
Took a few hours off of writing to sit on the patio with my brother. I'm really into the story I am writing, and am going to get more of it done tonight. Whenever I have a drink (I had my double-vodka-and-Bubly) I always stop at one. I am debating breaking my rule and making myself another drink. Will it keep me up or put me to sleep?
 
Always so much chatter here by the time I do my daily check-in. Love to see it. Regarding chairs, and anything to do with comfort and things one spends a lot of time using...spend. Get that high quality shit, man. I paid over $700 for my work/office chair. I used a $125 chair for the first year and my arse and back were absolutely killing me and likely causing damage.

Regarding the ole ciggies, I was never a big puffer, maybe 5-7 a day with some variation, but I stopped when The Plague began. According to my quitting app, it's now been 1809 days.

I absolutely do miss it though, especially after finishing my third beer 😅
 
Say all you like about the poor quality of American food but when you look back at photo and videos of people in the 60's-70's I'm pretty sure they were only skinny because they smoked like choo-choo trains.
 
I love you, Homer (in a comradely sort of way, of course), and believe you can do this and keep your eyeballs in the bargain. 🫂
I love you too in the same sense! I'm cutting down and kicking the small habits before I tackle the capital H Habit. No smoking in the car, no smoking after meals, no smoking with the morning coffee. I'm still smoking but at offbeat times and in offbeat places. I'm learning why they call it a habit. There's the physical addiction for sure, but a lot of it is stupid routine.
