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.

Ha! I had a pair of those, they were great!
So naturally i destroyed one and the case, and they didn't make that model any more, and the new version wouldn't stay in my head. I was bummed.

My daughter is already 5, and my son 3....it's crazy, and life is flying by....and whenever I say this to my father-in-law he laughs in "70+year old" and tells me that at his age it goes like ten times as fast...

I already have bad anxiety today, may as well pile that on. LOL

Think I've got building control licked.
Sat down and started digging through regs and all the approved drawings, structural engineers reports the whole thing. I'm at 90% sure I can tell them to jog on for the two big sticking points on sign off. Fist pump and "got you beat you pencil pushing fuckwits" when the measurement to boundary came in at over 4m.

Just some visual stuff and an emergency lighting cert to clear and that will be a fucking MASSIVE item chalked off our to do list

Daughter getting her vaccine on Tuesday. I know she's not happy because "needle" but it will work to alleviate some of my concerns with her in school and so many schools in Ontario with outbreaks.

Great news! My daughter got her first one 2 weeks ago, and she didn’t have any problems.

Awesome. Yeah, my buddies kids got theirs and no issues either.

huh, I didn't get near as many Black Friday / Small Biz Saturday / Cyber Monday emails as I was expecting (nowhere near the amount I got the day after Halloween). Supply chain effect? In any event, that's got me whistling a happy tune. I am all about supporting small/local businesses though, so get out there to that weird part of your town, where all the artists and bon vivants and bohemians and... well, weirdos.... hang out (and have stores), and buy that scented candle set made with artisan local beeswax for aunt Carol.

It always feels weird when you wake up somewhere completely new. Takes a while to adjust to new surroundings.

One time when I was young my family stayed at a cabin and I got the top bunk in the kids room, and when I woke up I forgot where I was and rolled out of bed, falling head first into the wooden bed frame of a neighboring bed. It may explain some things.

They came with white hands and left with red hands.

Can't fall out of bed, fortunately. I bought an actual bed. Had been sleeping on my couch for quite a while and decided to splurge on a proper bed with comfortable dimensions ^_^
