The bestest of buddies of mine published his Master's Thesis recently and included a mention of me in his acknowledgment section. I was very touched by the gesture. :)

I was in Italy last summer! It was incredible, better to go to regions where you can swim. The only thing is that there are a lot of people in Venice, it's just a nightmare)) But the area itself is incredibly beautiful.

Having an extra day off from work just chilling doing not much

Well well, I found out that I actually have 1 game made by Whale Rock Games in my Steam library. I made a point to not let even 1 games from them in my GOG library even for a freebie but somehow they wriggle their way in. I have no Idea how.

It have a whooping 4 level and 5 achievement. From the Steam review it actually can be completed in an hour.

edit: not really made me happy, but it gave me a nice chuckle instead

Scary moment for me, but also the happiest in recent memory: emailed my letter of resignation an hour ago. Finally... :)

F*ck yeah! Been there, done that, as in take your job, and shove it! Am now self-employed providing escort services. My boss is a Prince among men, and the clients think he's DDG. ((;--))

LOL! It wasn't quite the rebellious "f_ck yeah!" moment for me... Wish that was the case. ;) Rather, the mental pain of me staying at my current job was beginning to outweigh my enormous fear of being unemployed and penniless for an undetermined duration of time. I literally felt like I was standing on the window sill of a burning building, with threatening flames at my side, and I had to choose between staying put and burning alive or jumping from a 7-storey building in the hope of a better outcome. So I jumped! :P

I am feeling happy overall, but with many butterflies in my tummy.

I watched Food of the Gods, Hilariously funny. It always cheers me up, for me it remains one of the funniest shows. I found in on https://ww16.soap2day-online.com/ site, there are various movies and tv shows in all genres on every taste. Great service for tv shows and movie fans. I often watch tv shows in my free time because movies typically focus on one main overarching theme with the same characters, but shows can be much more flexible.

I think you described it really well with that one sentence.

Got my MBA degree today.

A big change in Poland. :)

Sounds more like bad news for Poland.

I cleaned the garage roof of enough leaves to bury a small child or animal and enough large branches to ensure that said critter would definitely get impaled by jumping into it.

I took a damaged waterstained page and cleaned it up nice and pretty.
