SEPTA (public transport) workers voted to go on strike when their contract expires at midnight on Halloween night without a new deal... but a new deal was reached.

If I don't find a random hookup at the party who's willing to have sex with masks on (really I should just go on Tinder for this) then the bus will almost certainly be more entertaining than an Uber.

Just got a call that I can have the apartment I applied for (and really, really liked). It's perfect for me. Perfect size, checks all my "must haves", rent is fine, house is on the new side and well looked after, area is super quiet but with good public transport service around the corner. Direct bus connection to my work place (I have to change transport twice one way atm). Landlady insists on only having single people living in each apartment, which does seem a bit weird, but hey, at least it's quiet. Moving in on the first of Dec. So excited!

Hahahah... No. Bitch stole wine from me today and I'm just over this whole thing. Wrong thread, but basically, I have a small collection of wine (a lot of which I got for free at my previous job, but there's expensive stuff, since it was a reseller of premium wine) and have told her she can take some bottle if she wants to, but explicitly asked her to ask me beforehand as there were some bottles the design of which I loved and was going to turn into home decoration once empty. Well, guess what, not only did she not ask (as she used to a year or so ago), she took the bottles she explicitly knew I wanted to keep AND refuses to bring back the empty bottles so I can at least do what I meant to with them to begin with. Like, I can't drink more than one glass of anything that includes alcohol anyway, I'm not stingy about the wine itself, but I still considered them MY property that I asked her to only use after asking first.

That's after she borrowed money from me yet again.

You cannot believe the range of emotions I went through today between wanting to smash something because of the repeated break of trust (my wine collection has halved while I wasn't paying attention and there's NO way to get some of those bottles back, they're flat out not sold here) to getting the call that I can have the appartment I really wanted.

Also, naturally, you are invited :thumbsup:

Facebook reminded me that 11 years ago I went to see the 49ers play the Broncos in London with Toby/Greg/Thelomen Toblerone. That was a great day!

Not sure if I ever gave the update. Took. A long while to go from the offer to actually Getting paperwork to sign. I was even starting to get nervous. However it all came right and I fly to Boston tomorrow to onboard.

Should be a big step up, I’m nervous about all the travel but also excited for it. May see Boston, Portland and Oxford all in the first 3 months. So let me know if you live in any of these cities.

I got tickets to see Aurora in concert next year. It will be my first concert in about 2.5 years at that point (due to COVID), and she's my fave artist of all time. Super excited!

What kind?
I go through these like popcorn and the cheaper/decent ones tend to vanish, change names, sell out, etc. from amazon.

Tranya. $30 on Amazon. I wasn’t sure I was going to like them because they have the squishy ear inserts instead of hard ones like I’m used to, but they are comfortable and the one time one has fallen out of my ear it was because I had it in upside down the first time I used them. I can’t speak to the sound quality for music too much though, strangely enough, as I’ve used them primarily for listening to podcasts. I use over the ear headphones for music.
