I'm not feeling very Halloweeny this year. I haven't even decorated the Store, which I normally do. The most I've done is reposition my old witch figure from her secret nook to the front counter by the cash register. I'm just hoping no one decides that it's okay to sell her.
I'm surprised Jorg's wife hasn't done anything to decorate the Store. She bought one of the 9 foot skeletons and a pumpkin arch for their house, but hasn't done anything for the Store. Eh.
In other news, my roommate is in the Phillipines and he's been there for about a week. He's been chatting with this woman online for, like, ages, and they decided to meet. I honestly don't know how they first met, but he seems to be enjoying himself over there, at least from the pics they've posted. I was a bit worried because no matter how many common interests you might have with someone, if there isn't any realspace chemistry I don't think the relationship will work. Just my humble opinion.
I've been playing around with Chat GPT as an edition tool and it is HORRIBLE. I may give Gemini or Claude a try, just to see what they're like. From what little I've used Gemini, it seems smoother. At least, when it's working.
The weather is starting to get chilly here and I have pulled out some of the winter clothes and my winter sleepware. I'm amazed that my inflated bed remains as comfortable and functional as it is.
I need to lose some weight, so I'm doing intermittent fasting(IF) again. I thought I might do OMAD, but that just isn't practical for me. IF works better with my schedule. I just have to drink a hella ton of water outside my window, which isn't a bad thing. My hydration has dropped quite a bit lately. :/
Also, and this is really good news, a new Barnes & Noble bookstore has opened up on my side of town! Yay! I've already bought 3 books from them, so I'm set for reading material for a while. Although, after looking at their free rewards program, I've realized it's a waste of effort. You have to spend $100 to get $5 off your next purchase. *eyeroll* What the hell kind of reward is that? Also, every time I go into the store someone tries to convince me to buy John Scalzi's 'Starter Villain.' Ew. No.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to read outside.
