Decided not to take the new job offer, even the more money offer just didn't feel right? Dunno maybe I'll regret it later but something just felt wrong.
I feel like taking a 'I don't feel like working day'.

On a somewhat related note, I have 20 sick days that I can take. There are people here (most of the long time employees) that will take every vacation day and every sick day each year. I always feel funny about doing that (even though I have on rare occasions sicked out for no reason in particular). I always worry about if I actually would get sick and not have any days to take. When I utilize them for 'mental health days' it is almost always towards the end of the year.

Atmospheric rivers are relatively long, narrow regions in the atmosphere – like rivers in the sky – that transport most of the water vapor outside of the tropics. These columns of vapor move with the weather, carrying an amount of water vapor roughly equivalent to the average flow of water at the mouth of the Mississippi River.

Hoollyyy...

Just looked at my phone. How much battery charge do I have you ask?

Exactly 91%
You only go around once in life so..... Eat all the greasy fried food that you can, smoke cigars and drink a brewery/distillery
You might as well have fun while you're alive because you never know when your time is up...........

Your post made me look at mine and no [BLEEP], 91% as well.

Yep.  I smoke cigars, drink beer/bourbon on the weekends while sitting on my 35 acres in the middle of the woods.  For fun we shoot some guns and during the day I work on the property whether it's cutting down trees or running my tractor through areas with a bush-hog.  During those weekends I totally disconnect from the interwebs and rarely look at my phone.  Now that I think about it, I need to order some more .223/5.56 ammo.

Sarcasm?

I mean, it’s great on a hot dog and all.   But I’m not sure I’d crack one open and spoon it.
Ever sit on your couch or recliner or whatever sitting instrument you may have at your disposal and decide you’ll be more comfy if you slipped your sockets down past your heels, yet still covering your toes?

Can’t say that I’ve ever thought about slipping sockets anywhere.
