I'm going to have to use so much tape to reseal everything

I have packed almost all of my boxes for moving and I'm getting anxious that I'm going to now open every box just to make sure there are no batteries inside them. 🫠

It closed a few years ago because the guy in charge decided to retire and didn’t want to give the garage he made to anyone else. Felt like such a huge loss because it was a really good place. It feels like this is something that happens a lot in the south, where this “mine” mentality feels common.

This reminds me of a really great mechanic and garage that use to be ten minutes from where I lived. I’d go there for any trouble and it was a great place. Had been in business for probably 15+ years.

Getting everything set up for my move and new job and out of nowhere while talking about Marinara sticks my mom decides it is the right time to tell me my dad is developing dementia and it's genetic... like??? RN while discussing marinara sticks you felt like this was the best time?

Im at the car dealership and these salesmen are talking about reselling pokemon cards like people resell cars and I’m just feeling so dated.

I got a notice of a status change on my work visa application only to come home and find out that the website is down.

Friend is telling me that when they did this process the IRCC was pretty good about letting you update documents, but still fairly worried that everything isn't going to work out on time.

Which I'm expecting file issues, the online portal was weird and I thought I had the right Imm form, but it wasn't the version on their website. If I have to pay another $155 Can and submit another application I could be looking at 4 months until I receive the work permit. 🫠

Stressing out about this work visa application because my new job starts in two months, I need to be living in the country within a month, but the application processing takes 8-9 weeks assuming it doesn't get rejected for document issues.

It is stressful because after my first year I would like to apply for Express Entry for PR, even a minor violation can apparently damage the chances of getting approval. 👻

I was hoping everything could be worked out with my living situation at least by the third week of March, but it seems like that's not going to happen. 🙃A lot of places I was waiting for to get me documents and information took far longer for details that should have been accessible.

Trying to plan everything for an international move is so complicated.

The current HR isn't even a big one, I feel like just getting a definite answer about my monthly pay should be easy or obtainable from the paperwork I have been given, but it's hard to know since I don't know Canadian income taxes.

All of my plans for the move and new job are being held-up by having to reach out to HR departments who are so hard to get an answer from. I need forms from my previous HR who I can't get a hold of and now I need an answer about monthly pay from my current HR who I also cannot get a hold of. 🙃

My PhD exists because of sonic the fucking hedgehog pushing me to learn the intricacies of applied statistics and statistical modeling. I'm losing my mind tonight about this revelation of what autistic me hyperfixated on several years ago.

I have found something from my past that makes me cringe very much, but that is also kind of wholesome and funny. I am not a doctor of applied statistics, but 7 years ago I was not. 7 years ago I did a 20 minute video essay on a statistical analysis of the sonic series up to 2018.

Worst case scenario is I either delay my move-in date (which would derail lots of stuff) or I just travel back for a one night visit to sign my car title and finalize the sale of the car. (Probably going to have to do this, but will require me to meddle with my high-yield savings account)

Honestly the only stressor is the paperwork timing, everything is so out of my hands that it becomes stressful. I wish there were workdays for this type of stuff on the weekends so it could be more easily handled rn.

Only thing stressing me out now is dealing with my car. If I can get everything handled on Monday I might be able to get my updated title on Friday of the week after next at the latest (hopefully) and then would need to sell it asap to the dealership who I’m arranging with next week.

Practically everything is packed, I'm looking to close on an apartment on the 3rd, all I need now is my Work Visa and I'm gtg. Big changes for my dog and I.

I've gotten the hang of using a tablet so I can hopefully get off having to use rulers when translating my drawings to digital.

My good news for the past few weeks has translated to me immediately getting out of my slump and getting around to drawing stuff that I've been wanting to work on for a while. Not sure when I'll finish this, but I was able to do a very good head of my sona.

It is nice that I can finally end my Unemployment filler arc and begin provisional associate arc.

Officially start my new job May 1st, so I get all of March to settle on a place and April to move.

Have you taken a look at the Steam Communities option? I’ve seen some talk online that it’s basically like a discord, but with fewer features and a less nice UI.

Really excited about the upcoming Toronto job. I’m going to get real gay with it. Gay, hotpot, gay, udon, gay, ramen, gay, izakaya. The order is subject to change.

Formal job offer came today and I accepted. We talked about the pay for the position and all my budgeting was for one number at minimum and then he offered with a number 20k higher. There are only a times when I had to confront that I grew up poor in these spaces, but this one hit in a good way.

I am learning so much about IKEA's warranty stuff and it's really generous.
