I just spent roughly one and a half hours searching for my lecture room. Couldn't find it. Went home.

Didn't want to do that module anyway

I want to paint but the caffeine shakes are making holding the brush steady a challenge

I have a thin window to paint: after the morning coffee, but before the evening drinks. Although I wonder if I put a shot of rum/bourbon in my morning coffee, if the alcohol would counteract the jitters? Or stick to drinks in the evening that use caffeinated mixers?

(I don’t actually drink that much, but some days this is a real problem, and the caffeine shakes do cut down on my painting time as well)

Emalda Marcos, is that you?

I'm not quite at that level, but between cleats, running shoes, cross-trainers, dress shoes, basketball shoes, boots, and street shoes I have 43 pairs. Most of them have their own purposes, but I burn through running shoes very quickly and the old ones pile up after a while.

Im kind of the same way... only I still have my old boots from the army (most of them anyway). When I get to where I can no longer wear a pair of running shoes out running, I'll use them for cutting the grass in the yard, and then eventually just toss them... I don't really hold on to them too much longer after theyre no longer "running" shoes.

I have... a pair of winter boots, a pair of rain boots (both which are 10 years old) a really beaten up pair of running shoes.
A pair of workboots my dad didn't want so I took, a pair of sandels I bought at Giant Tiger, and soon I'll have some sort of Lolita shoes.

I think I need a few more shoes.

I have a pair of boots which I've been neglecting, and a pair of 'smart' shoes which have since taken over being 'all occasions' footwear by dint of being slip-ons and therefore quick to put on and take off. With my boots I need to spend a minute or two doing the laces, and I don't have time for that sort of thing! I am a busy man! Sod all doesn't do itself, you know!

My team mates in BF4 are idiots who are likely incapable of tying their own shoes laces. And everytime I leave the server after a game it puts me back in the same lobby

Life might begin after coffee, but careful detail work begins after, after coffee.

I feel your pain. I'm not particularly brilliant at the game (I mostly just heal and defib. people), but the teams never seem to stick together. And the ones that do are always much stronger.

After herding cats for a few rounds the teams switched up a little and I we did well for a while. Then in the last game for some reason it felt as if every time we'd kill someone, or move on an objective there were always two more to take the place of the dead. Then I checked, the server had it so every joining player ended up on the enemy team Outnumbered 2:1 and we lost by 2 points
