I've had email reminders to review two items ordered from Etsy, which I have not received.

Somewhere, someone else is enjoying my Rockhopper penguin pin. [pissed]
 
probably 5 times a week or so

I've eaten cereal every day for at least fifteen years and that's the "boring" high-fibre stuff. To each their own, I suppose.

Cereal every day is fine, if you have a variety. I went through the "porridge for breakfast every day for years" thing, and finally rebelled and asked for eggs. My grandfather got angry with me for inconveniencing my grandmother and defying his "porridge every day" rule.

Well, now I have either porridge or eggs, whichever I'm in the mood for, and not necessarily for breakfast. The person in my household with the monotonous diet is Maddy, because I have to feed her whatever has (1) adequate nutrition for a cat; and (2) doesn't make her sick.

I'm going to look into senior cat food, as she's getting older and it's becoming obvious that some changes will have to be made around here.

The plausible alternative is that the milk went bad a day before the expiry date.

Well, the spoiling and souring processes happen independently, so that's always possible.
 
I searched some products on google and now I'm getting tons of adverts for them on AliExpress, in the dedicated app for the store on my phone, less than 12 hours later. If I wanted those products from AliExpress I would have looked them up on there and not on google. Now it's cluttering my feed from what I really want to look at on AE. Also, kinda creepy how quickly they turned that around from googling stuff on my PC to a separate app on a separate hardware...

Well, that's not good at all...just had to roll over the date to see if it was Tuesday or Wednesday.
 
I don't even know the date.

We are a losers forum , because nobody wants companies pay attention whatever is linked , right ? Let r16 magic work , eh ?
 
Today is April 30. According to the tech support people at NaNoWriMo, I received my winner's badge 4 days ago... yet I did not receive any of the usual pop-ups or messages or automated congratulations messages that are supposed to happen.

It was only after several messages to tech support and the support forum that I was told to "look for the little tent" and see the purple bar that would tell me I won. Then click on the bell to get the link to my certificate, and I have to click through that to get to the badge, banner, and discounts.

WHY DID THEY (M)UCK UP THE SITE LAST YEAR?!!!

It should not be this aggravating - there is nothing about the technical aspects of that site that is intuitive or user-friendly anymore!

I suppose the important thing is that I won and it was acknowledged in time, before validation stops working tonight at midnight.

But that site still has a lot of bugs which should have been caught a long time ago, before it went live in November.

Also private browsing mode… containers… y'know, basic security. As well as ‘no Chrome’, too.
 
People who throw remote controls at their spouses, then beat them up because they subsequently require stitches, should have their thumbs pressed in a vise until they pop.

Having to help stitch up a sobbing, black and blue mess of a woman is not a fun way to spend an evening... Grrrr.

And lunch is over. Back to the circus. :(
