I got called to the junior high today for an “emergency” situation with a computer they needed to restart. They figured it out by the time I got there because my new assistant principal has moxy. I’m about over them crying wolf.

A bunch of us went to Brangus for lunch, and I had the best beef spud and service I’ve ever had there. Gary’s food was lukewarm because it was Gary. Then I was off to finish up the day by myself.

After work, the girls came by to help with the leftovers. After they left, I made a quick trip to Walmart for some cat food, and potatoes to bake for Friday’s chili lunch. Back home, we tried to play some PUBG but the servers went down for maintenance right as everyone got online. Keno and I had a couple rounds in Overwatch instead, and then we all called it an early night.

We’ll be departing Procrastination Station a little behind schedule.

I felt a little lost at work today, but I managed. I just haven’t really had any momentum in a while. It’s been tough finding things to learn.

I had lunch in the library, and didn’t even leave the building until near quitting time when it was raining. At least I didn’t get stuck working on something for hours after work. I’ve been tired as well, so I just came home and played some PUBG for a while until bed.

It’s not that we’re scared. It’s just that it’s delicate.

This morning was mostly a cluster of people being frustrated at one another for lack of forethought and planning. Everyone had a role to fill, and desperately few had put enough thought into how to best complete the task in an efficient manner. Partially too many hands in the cookie jar, and partially overloaded leadership with too many tasks pulling them in too many directions at once.

Remembering the giant pan of cheesy potatoes in my refrigerator, I came home for lunch. Then I couldn’t help but to play a solo round of PUBG with my remaining time. I don’t know what’s gotten me on such a kick lately. I think partially it’s that the game is running better with patches, and partially that I’ve gotten noticeably better, and I’m enjoying the practice without others screaming in my ear in frustration. For so long, I’d forgotten what it was like to just enjoy a game.

My afternoon and evening got swallowed up into more work, and after staying a couple hours late to finish a task, I finally made it home to start a load of laundry. Summer came by to help with the leftovers before heading home for the evening, then I played a few more rounds of PUBG with the guys before bed.

Don’t forget to publish!

I was greeted at work this morning with a mild interrogation about my social life. Evidently they don’t read the blog.

We had Brick Oven for lunch, then got to leave an hour early, but I ended up sticking around and talking to Ben for a while before heading home to play a few rounds of PUBG with Josh. I did pretty well, and ended up outlasting him in most or all of our games. I feel like if I had a new computer, I might actually stand a real chance.

Afterward, I grabbed some chicken fries from Burger King and headed up to Summer’s to hang out for the rest of the evening.

What were you saying?
Can we move the flowers?
Before that.
This meatloaf is dry.
Before that.
This is meatloaf?
Before that.
This fish is dry.

Another week and another month over. Work has been pretty dead, so I’m down to just a handful of old work orders. Surprise cookies for breakfast, then I had lunch with the girls in the library. I almost won our last game of PUBG this evening while Jack, Josh, and Aaron watched in awe. Then I laid down and died instead of winning.

Second place is just the first place loser.

Jesica came to town today to take me out to lunch on Arvest’s dime and talk about my retirement, or more specifically, how they would rather be the ones to hold on to it for me. It all seems a little morbid to plot out your money so that you ideally run out right as you die. For me, retirement seems more like a point in my life where I’ll reach “fuck-it” and sail away into the horizon after the sun. Presumably I’ll be raided by pirates and subsequently eaten by sharks. This seems okay.

After work, I came home and spent the evening with the boys playing PUBG. I’ve said it before, but that game really makes me want to upgrade my gaming setup. The only problem is that now I can’t stop thinking I should save every penny for retirement.

How exactly does one “win” the game of life?

I woke up and started cleaning house today. It was pretty nice outside, so Summer wanted to go for a walk. I stopped by Popeye’s to pick up the biscuits they shorted me yesterday, then picked her up to go to Bona Dea. We made a short loop around the back side of the trail, then went back to her house to wait for the girls to get home. She made dinner, then I came home to do a couple loads of laundry. I managed to squeeze in a few rounds of PUBG before bed, but never did very well. I’m not sure I’m ready to go back to work tomorrow.

When’s spring break again???
