When my mother died and I travelled back to the US for her funeral, I started doing Duolingo again. A few fits and starts, a few streaks lost, but overall I stuck with it. Today I achieved a 1,313 day streak. Today I also updated the app and got an ad after every lesson I did. And this idiotic 'energy' system, but for a fresh subscription I can obviate that! Today I uninstalled Duolingo. I will not have a 1,314 day streak. So long, and thanks for all the fish. Too bad they ruined the app.
I found the cutest littel shot glass at Woolworth this weekend. And today I knew what must be done. Also, MAN am I happy with this laser. I just wish I had the 20W laser module as well as this 10W module.
The next time you're queued up at LHR, or any other UK port of entry, remember. There shall be no electronic devices, no photos, no laughter, no talking, and ABSOLUTELY NO FUN WHATSOEVER lest you face a charge. This courtesy of the jackbooted dipshit in Edinburgh the last time I was there...
"General, it is the avowed policy of our country to strike first with nuclear weapons."
"Well, Mr. President, I would say General Ripper has already invalidated that policy."
"That was not an act of national policy, and there are still alternatives left open to us."
One of the greatest movies of all time.
Oh, perfect, a list of garbage to never buy!

Finally got this little brat done and on the recipient's wrist. Ugh. What a pain in my ass this has been because almost everything went wrong. Thankfully I didn't try to disassemble the damn movement, but I think I managed to screw it up, so it'll be getting replaced next year. Now to decide if that'll be an ETA(ish) Quartz, or another mechanical movement.
