This sounds like a major first world success in itself.

It feels wrong to claim it. I was born here and haven’t been involved in making, implementing or executing this policy. It’s nice though.

Small success, even if slightly premature: I have 4 hours of interviews this Thursday for a process engineering position at my company.

It would be a huge promotion, like $25k/year (with uncertainty of course).

I got the job, I start my new position at the beginning of 2021.

i just spent hours trying to install a vst, which seemed like a titanic effort since my ignorance about anything remotely technical is abysmal. i'm quite dumb if you like. for real. 

i now have the digital instrument i've been dreaming of for months so right now i'm feeling pretty good

My very last delivery of 2020 also just so happened to be to the nicest lady on Vancouver Island.  First she asks if I have a $10 so she can tip me with a $20 bill on top of what she'd already tipped through the app.  Then as I'm getting into my van I notice her coming back out with a package of some kind.  I go back and she's saying "we like to give all our delivery guys a special thank you gift."  She hands me a gift bag filled with cookies, chips, soda and various other edibles.  Seriously?  Just so unbelievably kind and generous.  What a perfect delivery to end the year on.

that 1st season of "Happy" is full of laugh out loud moments. 

It's originally written by Grant Morrison as a four-issue comic book series, which is awesome. If you're not familiar with Morrison's work, you should be - The Invisibles is his magnum opus in my books; there's been an adaptation to the screen in the works for a while, would be nice to see that one as well - but the comics are already effin' brilliant.

I just want to let you know that despite today’s events at the Capitol everything will be ok. My new blender has arrived
