I'm taking a half day tomorrow, and unplugging. End of Fiscal Year, and making sure all my billing and non-billing grants are accounted for. I started on 11/04/2024 and inherited several grants in January 2025. Turns out the last accountant manager we had was a micromanager and didn't tell us all the grants we handled. So my nice and easy 10 grants turned into 27, with the bulk having not been touched since last July. I've gotten 24/27 done, and for the last three I am literally looking for pennies. Rounding errors in Excel. Thanks, Reader. Let me introduce you to my latest YouTube obsession: The Fat Electrician - YouTube He can be spicy in language. He's a Vet. But he is one of the best damn historian storytellers on YouTube. WARNING He does talk about Military stuff and has Firearms in his videos at times.

Hello, my name is A. *Hello A, from the others* For the past three weeks now, I've been working nearly 7 days a week, and from 6:00am to 10:00pm on average. I need a vacation.

Happy Friendship Day! Also Happy National Cheesecake Day and Happy National Golden Girls Day! It makes sense all three are the same day!

Kitty, kitty, kitty. 🥰

I feel you, tim. As much as I've tried lately, I can't get the voices in my head to talk to me. I have ideas of what I want to write, get ready to, and then nothing comes out. I look back over what I wrote, published here on GA and other places, and wonder if the spark to be a Storyteller is still there or not.

Oh, that he does. LOLOL Rikard over Lex any day.

I think this is AI, but it hit me directly in the feels today.

Agreed. Both of those were good, but wow.

And what you watch and listen to. There's a whole new genre on YouTube of AI create songs. Everything from the vocals to the music AI created, and you can have it sung by your favorite artist.

Since being back on GA, I've noticed on a couple of stories, it's like people are posting AI synopsis of the chapter/story. Am I wrong and just seeing something not there?

RIP

I'm sorry you're having trouble, my friend. I pray that the universe brings you peace soon.

Anything I can do to bribe them?

I had to work the 4th of July and had today off as my holiday. I ended up doing a small walk in the morning, and staying inside all day. The heat when I opened the door for the Wal-Mart delivery almost knocked me over.

I third it!

Sounds like an allergic reaction. My friend's dog was doing the same, and the vet recommended soaking the paw in epson salt after every trip outdoors to see if it was environmental. It wasn't. turned out to be a food allergy.

Good morning! Hope you all are doing well. My favorite emoji is: 😘 Well, it's the one I use the most talking to the Fiance.

Alas it's all windowshopping. Look, but don't touch.

@kbois for some reason, I didn't realize you were a fellow Floridian.

At work, we use the Sanctuary Model of Trauma-Informed care. A part of that is to develop individualized safety plans. Something that can help you get control of your emotions when you realize you're becoming to overly emotional. Watching Capybara videos is part of my safety plan. Reminds me to embrace my inner Capybara.
