I’ve had some hardships over the past year and life can be a complicated mess but everyone has their ups and downs.
I got a big promotion a year ago but the benefits haven’t outweighed the negatives so I’m at a crossroads. It has brought me financial stability in these hard times though which I’m thankful for but I know I’m going to have to make a decision one way or the other at some point.
My son has become fully invested in baseball this year and the journey still continues. He went from Little League to All Stars to now travel ball and will pitch in his first 9U kid pitch game tomorrow so that’s very exciting. I’m a nervous wreck but can’t wait to see him perform. We have lived at the baseball field since April, and it’s been an honor to watch him grow as a person and player. I don’t think we’ll know what to do with ourselves when the travel season ends next month but basketball is next up for him and he’s excited for that. Hopefully this year I can get him into watching some KU games with me as he was curious at times last season.
With work - similarly I got a promotion about a year ago. Then immediately we were (are) and industry current administration is going after. Caused a ton of stress. Went to therapy to help me understand why I was hating work so much. It very much helped keep things in perspective. Just a thought if you haven’t tried it first before leaving.
Congrats on the baseball! Good luck to him pitching! I miss playing baseball at that age more than any other competitive sports I played.
My 6 year old came home singing this, which he picked up at school. I guess theres a clapping game that goes with it. I enjoyed the regional variations in the reddit thread.

I wonder if you guys have encountered any similar spoken word things (or other things) that varied greatly by region?
@AsadZ thats a tough one. I enjoyed this WC immensely and i hope it has a positive impact bridging the gap between the middle east and the western world.

Are the space heaters doing the trick or is it sucking bad?
It’s not too cold now that that cold snap is over. Space heaters are fair. Thermostat can be revived for a few hours at a time using the old NES blow really hard in it trick. Lol fried heat sensor. Just waiting on the USPS to wake back up so mail flows again.
Interesting theory. Well presented. That would be a huge city - least plausible part of his theory. Just needs to prove it with something tangible now. - something carved in stone or metal would still exist somewhere under the proposed debris field.

@dylans Great idea! Only problem is that first step of taking up golf…and then getting better than some 99.99% of all the other golfers.
I can tell you the first few million guys, like me, should be fairly easy to beat out!
