    Well. Seems my interview yesterday didn't go nearly as catastrophically as I thought it did.

    I just got word that they want me to meet one of the C-suite guys, who would apparently be one of my main stakeholders, were I to get the gig. Which is fun, because she (the managing director) told me yesterday that she would get back to me some time next week.

    this morning before i made breakfast, i definitely heard something hit the house / roof. I presumed it was a branch, looked out the kitchen window and didn't see anything, then thought nothing of it.

    needed to leave about an hour ago. I walked out to the car, started it, sat there, realized i forgot something, so i walked back toward the front door. wtf is that? how did i miss that walking outside?

    a limb, nay, a leader has broken off from the front tree and plummeted to the ground. it's a little under 10" at its thickest, around 16 feet long. I left the mess in the yard. I don't feel like getting sweaty cleaning that up.

    fuck that dying tree and me for not caring about it. i just imagine that thing falling as i mowed. O,,o

    The app company Webflow put out a message that they're updating terminology to change uses of the word "master" to "main," following in GitHub's footsteps.

    Does anyone know if a single non-white human being has ever taken offense to the use of the word "master" in software terminology?

    So last night I had some of the best sex of this year so far.

    With a girl that just earlier this week told me she could no longer have a FWB going on because she fell in love and started to date somebody seriously.

    Then I asked her if we could still have an affair going on and have sex. It would be our secret. She said she couldn’t do that and I accepted after I sent her few more messages that she ignored. So I deleted her off my contacts as I thought I would not see her again.

    Then yesterday she sends me a WhatsApp message that she would want to see me. And I asked her what changed her mind and if she was still in love. She said yes she’s still in love but is also horny.

    So she came over and we had a couple of hours of hot passionate sex. I fucked her brains out.

    I personally am open minded when it comes to sex and it turns me on that she has a boyfriend now but still comes over to have sex with me. Yet I was surprised that she would do this after all. She’s not the “slut” type of woman.

    Oh and I no longer have a crush on my co-worker. I came to realization it’s better to not get into a weird situation at work.

    Anyway, just a little #coolstorybro productions.

    • Besides that it's nice that you share those things with us. Good for you that you had good sex. Did she felt the same? That would make it even better ;-)oey_oey
    • Yes she had an amazing time last night. She was in ecstasy. This affair situation definitely spices things up.NBQ00

    Been sneezing and blowing my nose since I got up this morning, and I'm feeling a bit achey. Feels like a cold coming on.
