My cat just taught me that I have a button on my keyboard to lock my screen (I had manually mapped Super+L to do this).
I'd always just ignored the applicaiton launcher buttons on that corner of the keyboard.

Against my expectations, I ended up having to make a trip to the mall today. It's a stat holiday in Canada. I didn't even expect them to be open.
Anxiety levels were maxed out for an extended period. At least I'll be getting my money's worth at my next therapy appointment.

Was talked into eating the tiniest piece of sugar pie today.* I haven't had any in years. Probably not the wisest decision for a diabetic, but what the hell, sometimes it's about quality of life over quantity.**
* The slice was so thin it literally curled up when I tried to plate it.
** I know this is a terrible justification. Don't @ me.
Fun side story:
My family's sugar pie recipe is a closely guarded secret, kept by a closely guarded sect of closely guarded monks. My aunts refused to disclose it to my mother because she wasn't a blood relative, but my father loves the stuff.
She spent years reverse engineering the recipe. Throughout these attempts, we were subjected to several sugar hockey pucks and sugar soups. Finally, she was able to not only duplicate, but improve upon the recipe.
She now refuses to share it with them.

@Darth Festivus 🎄 It's a French Canadian thing. It's kind of like a giant butter tart, but the texture is a little different.
It's really, stupidly delicious. This is why my resolve cracked.
Am not big on underdog stories but i like yours because her victory is sweet.

Had my first therapy appointment last week and paid out of pocket.
I submitted the receipt to insurance and they denied it because it was "not covered". My therapist is listed by name on their site as being covered.
Fuckers.

dang! i knew i was taking a gamble with that statement.

@Digit Insurance companies are crooked worldwide. I'm lucky to live in a country that has as good a healthcare system as it does, but it's not without its faults.
As it turns out, I submitted the receipt from the payment processor. A few days later the therapy office sent me a more complete receipt. I'm appealing, and re-submitting the new receipt.
Fingers crossed. 🤞
Another fun aspect of #ADHD life:
I made myself a small meal specifically because I had a medication that needed to be taken with food. An hour after eating, I realize I forgot to actually take the medication.
I wish I could say this was a one off, but let's be real, it's not.

Okay, so this is going to be amusing to maybe like five people on the planet but...
I've been studying teeline, a shorthand system most typically employed by UK journalists (though apparently becoming less common). In this writing system there are various phrases that have commonly used abbreviations. In today's lesson, the instructor mentioned that the phrase "grievous bodily harm" can be written as GBH.
As an #ExMormon, this abbreviation amuses me.

So, I've had this recent medical condition that we're trying to get a handle on. Of course, my doctor is pointing to the #ADHD meds I've been on for years without issue as the culprit. I saw that coming from a mile away.
He was unable to suggest an alternative.
So, I think I figured out why my glucose levels (which had been improving) are spiking again. I got these protein bars to snack on that say they have 3g of sugar. Looking more closely at the label, they actually have a bunch of other stuff that breaks down into sugar as well.
That's unfortunate. They were tasty.
Okay, I'll bite.
What's with all the ../ memes for the past few weeks or so? I get that not sanitizing input for this is a serious security vulnerability, but it's such an elementary exploit that I don't understand why it suddenly seems to be all the rage. What's next? SQL injections? Buffer overflows?
I assume some big company made this mistake recently and I just wasn't paying attention?

Because I have a habit of misplacing things, I have a rule where my glasses are concerned: on my face or in the case.*
This rule does not help me so much when I misplace the case itself.
* This also serves to prevent me from leaving my glasses somewhere that they might be damaged.

So, we've had a problem with players being unable to respawn after dying in some circumstances. While I'm still not 100% certain what is causing this, I've written a mod to fix it if it happens.
If you find yourself stuck dead without the respawn option, you can now manually respawn by typing the /respawn command.

- It's been sitting here for hours and it's cold.
- Oh sweet summer child, if I didn't drink cold tea, I wouldn't ever get to drink any tea at all. And not for lack of trying.
So the doctor has me on a heart monitor. I'm supposed to wear it for 72 hours and go about my life as normal. First night in, I woke up to two of the leads having detached.
When I was there, they showed me how to replace them and gave me spares so I was able to do that, but this doesn't bode well for the next two nights. I can't control what I do while unconscious.
