  1. Sat in a chair I don’t normally sit in while reading a book and was reminded that I took our nazar eye (🧿) that my sister picked up for us while visiting Turkey and brought it downstairs, attached a metal hook to the sliding glass patio door, stashed the nazar somewhere to keep safe while the adhesive bonded to the door, and have been unable to find the nazar ever since.

    The hook is still there, with nothing attached, a few years later. I’ve looked everywhere. Gonna buy a new one.

    If it’s called shotgun formation, shouldn’t the center snap two handfuls of miniature footballs to the quarterback at once instead of just the one normal sized football?

  3. I think between you and me, or whatever, but, I think that it is weird that people post paragraph long preambles in chat linking to positions they are hiring for or that would be on their team without naming the company the job is at a single time.

    It really seems like a majority of people do this. Like, I get why greenhouse refuses to include that in the unfurl, I think. I hate it, but I get it. I don’t get OPs who do it. Main-character syndrome?

  4. so funny that my take away is always and forever will be that after speed walking to BART, skipping steps on the escalators in a panic, hopping through train car doors I was worried were going to close (never actually closing doors, that’s gauche), skipping steps up all flights at the Embarcadero, speed walking to my appointment and just making it on time, that "I can make it downtown in 20 minutes, maybe 15?” and not any of the luck or urgency required to make that happen.

    “don’t you have to leave?”

    “Nah, I can make it downtown in fifteen minutes. Oh. Oh, shit, I gotta leave.”

    Every time.

  5. one of those nights where I sit with a guitar in my lap and iReal up on my phone and try to figure out what key willie is playing in on one of his records of standards (tonight, the “That’s Life” record, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hq_-vz_qOd0&list=PLM_eo-srGT72vo-aOuegEnA3jSJr3qaDI&index=1) so that I can play rhythm for it before the song gets through the A section.
