I canāt believe Iām still awake at this time. Gonna need a lie in tomorrow 
Dito, my arena partner doesnt know what bed time is XD
Itās Friday and one week closer to my paycheck. Also, Amazon Black Friday has begun, and I need a new mouse, keyboard and monitor and I intend to spend as little as possible. Got any suggestion?
That or, going full bananas and buying a new Alienware laptop, since Iām still running on an old Alienware r5 with a 1080 that still runs everything smooth, but has the bad habit of restarting randomly. Though Iād like to save the money for the motorcycle driving license Iām planning to get next month, so Iām not sure.

Going to see the new Hunger Games film tomorrow. Grand-daughterās choice for her birthday. I read the book (itās the prequel) as soon as it was published and am now ready to get very cross if the film isnāt like the book. The earlier ones were ok so crossing my fingers for this one. Then a meal in Chinatown (her choice, Iāve trained her well 
)

Not gonna lie, it does look like an insult to me at first. But feel free to tell what it really is :')
In case you donāt know, there was a forum discord back in the day called Fortune Favoured.
As far as I know, Brigante came up with the name and the leaders (Kyrel or Twilly mainly) organised a lot of events. Sadly, there were some problems within the roster (which I donāt know what were, I joined half a year before it was shut down in May 2022).
There is another one now, but itās mainly just a chatting room for a small clique of 10 people or so 
a few of them play together maybe, but the FF that once was, has been resting in peace for a long while now.
You became a night owl again?
Guess you could return to saying hello with the Good Morning (Afternoon!) Tiger gif from Winnie the Pooh. 
Here, it was my motherās bday yesterday, she got a cream cake!
Also bought a good meal and believe it or not, I just happened to bump into a hot local redhead who was hanging out with a close fren of mine, and sheās single evenā¦

No spoilers!! I still havenāt read the bookā¦ Itās on my TBR pile along with the seven clothbound penguin classics I got for my birthday 
I might have a problem 
I think it has a different meaning in the UK & the US. In the UK itās an affectionate term for someone whoās always doing silly or clumsy things ā¦ ie youād call someone that if they walked in a puddle because they werenāt looking. Or dropped a pile of stuff they were carrying. I think itās more offensive in the US and I guess thatās what they were going by.
Put it at the top of the pile before you get spoiled. I wasnāt sure about it because the original series was such a classic. But itās ok, indeed very good in places.
(I have a 4 shelved double-banked bookcase of books to be read ā¦ and a kindle with a lot of unread books on it. I need more time.

Then Iām likely one of theseā¦ dingbats I do tend to be clumsy or make a mess trying to do good.
Like it does make others angry at times, but anyone who knows me, knows I mean no harm.
Thats true- i left that one absolutely ages ago, you were pretty much ignored if you werenāt part of the āgangāā¦
Well itās aā¦ soft insult. Like saying someone is silly or a banana. Is the word itself not super cute though? I blame my unfiltered englishness. Ananda put it better.
