Friday marked 5 years of sobriety from alcohol for me, which was nice. Then on Saturday I went to my city’s pride parade. I asked a friend to come with me, and another friend if they wanted to play a round of disc golf afterwards, but both cancelled. This usually means I wallow in self-pity, but instead I got geared up in my gayest outfit, and enjoyed the festival anyway! it was like 100 degrees, but I was proud to see so many happy people having a great time in one of the most welcoming, accepting environments ever.
Congratulations on your 5 years.
Thank you! I texted my father, saying “oh, look another year down!” and he replied “ok,” and told me his plans for later that day. So you’re actually the only person to have congratulated me on this so far. So, thanks!
Credit where it’s due. LOL
CONGRATS!
I took a couple of very cute selfies in a new outfit and had a difficult but fruitful conversation with my girlfriend about some insecurities that I was having in the relationship.
And thank you for the question! I include this opportunity to share my joy as a good thing that is going on with my weekend.
What good things are going on with your weekend?
I redesigned a mechanism for an automata I’ve been working on for over a year for the fourth time, and now it’s like half the size and way more reliable then the previous prototype.
Visiting my grandma for her birthday.

Summer is coming
It’s a close family-friend’s birthday. We’re going to visit a local Oddities Expo event tomorrow, so that should be a fun little adventure.
Got to spend some time with my son and he got to meet his newborn sister .
You won’t believe it, I got up and went for a run! Yay!
Testing out my meshtastic setup and seeing friends.
TIL: Meshtastic - An open source, off-grid, decentralized, mesh network built to run on affordable, low-power devices.
Our local city went from a couple of hobbiest to around 20 people getting into it. It’s like a pager lol. But it does have a phone app as well as a web one.
Redoing the spark plug wires on my old truck and pulled off the valve covers and cleaned the rust off and painted them.
They’re looking real pretty now. Excited to get everything put all back together.
My son caught his first fish! A 3 inch bluegill, we have an incredibly adorable photo!

Me? Just livin’ large boy, livin’ so large.
I finally got a looper guitar pedal I’ve been wanting and after a couple 12 hour shifts finally got to mess around with it this evening!
Water park!
Got a session of Pathfinder in with my group who seems plagued by the scheduling monster. Always glad to get a session in when we can.
