After a tedious day of fixing things around the house, laying on the bed feels nice...and painful at the same time 🥲. I spent most of the time sorting out an electrical issue of all things 🙃. Lower temperatures due to constant rain were the only thing keeping me from going insane 😅. Anyways, good n8

More info on the electrical issue... The house has a resistive circuit breaker connected to the mains which is incredibly sensitive to earth leakage. It tripped for quite some time now so I knew there was an earth leak somewhere. So, I searched for hours around the house only to find this small, exposed length of wire was making contact with the Earth 🫠.

Hope all is well. I had to take my car to the mechanic as I noticed a coolant leak 🙃. I was hoping it would be simple fix pertaining to a cracked hose (it is an old car after all.) but alas, I was made aware of the fact that the entire oil cooler assembly needs replacing 🫠. Anyway, Good night. #fun

The engine coolant dripping down and around the compressor (I think). Yay.

[1/3] The upgrade was mostly hassle-free and took less than an hour, mostly thanks to the fact that my laptop is from a manufacturer who is Ubuntu certified (I think). I did get a few scares at the end as SourceForge was offline when the updater needed to get some font files from it. #Ubuntu

Oftentimes, chemistry just feels like magic. Good night.

Copper oxide deposits on a battery terminal. Had to jump start a long dormant car of mine. Safe to say, that battery is toast 🙃

Salutations...👋 Things have been pretty mundane. Hope it's anything but for you 🙂. I have made the effort to follow a exercise routine and so far, it's been going well🏃‍♂️. The rainy season is starting to rear it's head now and it's been quite hectic to adapt to, since it's been a long time 🌧️. G'night.

Howdy. It has been an indifferent Saturday except I had to take care of termite infestations at various parts of the house 🙃. I can still smell the chemical used and it is quite annoying. Here's to a peaceful Sunday 🥂. Good night.

Hi. Hope life's good. The past three days were quite exhausting as I had to drive ~640 kilometres 🫪. It's been raining on and off which was nice. Today's the first day without any taxing work and my body's paying me back in kind by aching all over the place 😅😖. Anyways, I'm off to bed. Good night! 🥱

Found two nails and a piece of metal in my rear tire before the trips. Tubeless tires are really a god-send.

Hello again. Hope you're doing well. Going through a bit of a rough patch at the moment but hey, could be worse... 😖 Messi decided to retire... Long live the king 🐐. In other news, my 26 year old car is showing its age and the long trips aren't helping 🙃. Feeling sleep-deprived. Good night. 🥱

Hello again... Hope you're doing well. Safe to say, things haven't changed that much. I attended some interviews for some jobs, went to several funerals, realized that I hate driving during the night (I hate high-beams 🫠), got a haircut, so on and so forth. I got sick so I'm off to bed. G'night!

[21:45] Welp...weekend's over😐. Hope you had a relaxing one. I had some spare time so I refurbished a standing fan for my grandfather. I also did a quick maintenance on my uncle's motorcycle and let's just say it won today🫩. I started watching The Mentalist (2008) and its quite fun. anyways, night😪!

[22:08] Hello. Hope your day was uneventful, in a good way. There was no power for most of mine 🥲. I wrote some code before the outage, and when I came back to it after the power returned, I lost track and spent the rest of the time understanding my own code 😅🙃. Dinner awaits so, good night 🥱.

[21:35] Hi there. Hope you had a productive day before the weekend. Mine was quite bland as I was on "auto-pilot" for most of it🤖. Had to drive my uncle to the doctor's for a follow-up on his eye surgery. The weather was nice and so was the drive🛣️. Heading to bed early so, good night 👋🫠.

Spotted a Peacock while driving through the countryside. Had to take a quick photo before it flew away so the image's all blurry 😅

[23:37] Hello again. Hope your day was peaceful. Mine was not as I'm on a warpath, hoping to make up for all my lapses of judgement over the past nine months. The day was beautiful though☀️. I got paint on my arms which I scrubbed off for a solid 15 minutes🙃. It was a day. Weekend ahead. Good night🌌.

Hey there. Hope life's treating you well. It's been kicking me for the past 9 months (time flies.) mostly due to my own carelessness but hey, I'm making amends slowly but surely. Nothing of note happened (in regards to my day to day life) so I didn't feel like writing. Tomorrow is a new day. Good n8

desperate_dandy @desperate-dandy.bsky.social · 02/10/2025

[22:55] Hello again. Hope your day was productive. Mine wasn't as productive as I envisioned it 🙃. My stomach acted up and sidelined me for most of the day. I'm feeling fine at the moment. It's like they say, "Health is wealth". Take care. Good night.

[22:59] Hey there. Hope you had a good start to the month. Mine was pretty slow so it's all uphill from here (i hope). Steady progress on the project and coffees galore (bad idea) sums up my day. I ate scrambled eggs and rice for dinner. Heading to bed now. Have a great tomorrow 👋🙂. Good night.

[23:26] Hello. Hope you had a good day/month 🙌. It was a pretty productive day where I yelled at banks (they got my address wrong in their servers 🤦), made good progress on a project of mine and helped around the house. Here's to a good start to the new month 🍻. Good night.

[22:41] Hope your day went well. I had two families of relatives over so the day was pretty lively and exhausting. The food was great 😅🤤. Everyone left by sunset and the house fell silent once more. It's the little things that are worth living for. Tomorrow's another day. Good night.

[23:55] Hello there 👋. Hope you're doing well/good. The past couple weeks have been so mundane and unremarkable (for me) that I simply didn't want to post as it would be devoid of any substance 😅🙃. Anyways, hope you had a good weekend. Good luck with the new week 🙂. Keep on keeping on 💪. Night.

[23:54] Hello. It's been a while. Nothing of note happened except most of the world's on fire 🙃. Peace, as it turns out, is a very fragile concept. Hoping for a better future 🤞. In other news, it's been raining on and off these past few days (🙂). Hope your day was good. Here's to a good tomorrow 🍻

I wonder what the clock is set to now in light of recent global conflicts.
Just thinking about it makes me shudder 😖.

[23:01] Hello again. The weekend was quite eventful that ended with me seeing my brother off at the airport. The 500 km round-trip really did a number on me so I spent the day resting whenever I could. I missed the lunar eclipse so the full moon is my consolation prize I guess 😅 🌕. Good night.

The moon was even bigger a few hours ago.

[23:51] Hello. Hope you had a good week. My fever's practically gone so it started raining again (great timing, mother nature 🙃). I've been taking care of others in the house who caught my fever so, it's been a tiring few days. Here's to a relaxing weekend 🍻.

Beef and egg sandwich for dinner.
I was careless and slightly burnt the bread 🙃.
Tasty nevertheless.

[23:40] Hope your day went well. I'm still not out of the woods yet. It's like my body's pulling a prank on me 😖. Other than that, my day was just like any other. I made some good progress on a project of mine and rested whenever I could. hope the aftermath of the fever doesn't last too long. GN.

[22:48] Hope you had a fruitful day. It seems my body's still recovering. I've got my appetite back so it shouldn't take long (I hope). It's been the most productive day in recent memory as I worked away on my laptop for 6 hours straight, and ran a few errands. A good start to the month. Night💤.

I had someone else drive the car to give my brother, returning from overseas, a ride home as I was sidelined due to the fever.
They filled the engine with a bit more oil 🫠.
It should be fine (🤞).
Maybe I should drain it or I can just wait for it to burn away over time 😅.

desperate_dandy @desperate-dandy.bsky.social · 30/08/2025

[00:01] Hope your day was good. It looks like my fever's not done with me yet 😖. My appetite has not yet returned as well so, porridge it is 🙃. 2 road collisions and 4 fatalities in a week in the area. Be careful and adhere to all traffic laws 🙂. I had some guests over so time flew. Good night.

Bios updates are great but stressful every time 😅.

desperate_dandy @desperate-dandy.bsky.social · 29/08/2025

[00:01] Hey there 👋 I really underestimated a fever and got sidelined for the past few days 🫠. Hope your week was good. I'm feeling quite alright now so yay 😖. Hoping for a good weekend. Good night.

At least someone's having a good time 🙂.

desperate_dandy @desperate-dandy.bsky.social · 25/08/2025

[23:58] I hope your day was good. The storm last night set the scene for today as most of the day was overcast 🫤. Winds that blew last night made a mess in the garden so cleaning it was a chore 😖. I had to apply for a new highway pass for my car as it expired. It took the whole afternoon 🙃🫠. GN.

[22:54] Hello there 🫠 It's been a lackluster few days but not today. What started as a 30 minute cleanup of my room somehow turned into a half-day cleanup of the entire house 🙃. As a result, my hands and my back ache quite a bit 😮‍💨. At least the house looks good 😆. Hope your day was good. Night.

A stray cat paid me a visit today.
Took this picture from afar so as to not spook it 😅.

I was able to catch up with my duties that were piling up while I was away so that's a relief 🫠😮‍💨. Tomorrow's another day. Let's hope it's a good one. Good night.
