going to college :( we had this weird system where you go to internship for mon-fri and study in sat-sun. they say it's important to gain industry experience. so as a result I don't get any weekend which sucks!

Going to see two movies in the cinema; The Watchers saturday afternoon, sunday is Interstellar (classic movie). I’ve got an unlimited movie pass and usually see about three movies per week. This one’s a slow one; not many new releases.
Apart from that, I’m going to squeeze in a bit of photography. Need to test out a new tilt-shift lens that I got this week.
All in all, going to be a fun weekend.
Pride parade :)
Have fun & stay safe! Those always look like great events. Sadly, never been to one myself, though we do have a huge one every year in Amsterdam.
I’ll be in a data center tonight and all day tomorrow. I get to drive home Sunday. Company will buy my wife and I dinner Sunday night.
You're looking at it.
Cooking, beer, gaming, walks, maybe even trying to be social. No idea what to cook, though.
Hellsyea..... Creativity comes from constraint, so perhaps try making something with what sits in one single floor in your fridge/pantry
Finally rest. I'm exhausted. I'll be in bed watching cartoons!
Same. Gonna sleep and then lay in bed with my Switch and play with some digital Legos!
I have some family visiting so I'm looking forward to catching up!
Just finished my 3rd term of first year programming. Having a couple close classmates over for a bbq and drinks. I dont have to look at my computer and study like crazy anymore.
I'll be trying to fix a leak in a small motor boat.
Trying not to think about life and the future while being mostly isolated.
It's actually a pretty good strategy to focus on the present moment. The "T", asymptote of time passing. Helps clear the mind in a way procrastination never will
Finishing all the assignments as I'm approaching the end of the semester. I have 3 due next week 🥲
Initially I was going to a birthday party on Saturday but unfortunately that was cancelled because of illness. So instead I'm going to play board games with friends.
Wife's birthday tomorrow, we're done cleaning the house and she'll be cooking well into the night. I'll be her kitchen aide... I think we're having around 20 people over... that's a lot of food...
Grandma and big sister are taking the kids so we are going to go freaking wild in bed. Then I guess we just have to kill 47 hours and 45 minutes.
Lmao. Get creative ! take out the icecubes and prolong that intermingling !
I understate because I don't know the community that well. We're blowing the dust off the ropes and floggers and paddles.
Oooh, nice. Perfect time to break out the old lego SaturnV !
Lie in bed and recover from getting covid.
Wishing you a speedy recovery, friend.
We just finished building a chicken coop and have 5 beautiful little chickens now! We're probably gonna spend some time in our back yard cleaning up the coop, letting the chickens roam the yard, and gardening.
We got invited to a friend's house for a pool party, so we will probably hit that up. Family is in town from out of state, so we will probably have to rendezvous with them at some point (not really looking forward to that).
I'm hoping to have some time to grind FFXIV before the new expansion comes out. I'm a few quests away from finishing Shadowbringer - I have less than 20 days until the release of Dawntrail and I'm pretty sure I'm not gonna be done with End walker by then, womp womp. Looking forward to the new classes and the graphics update.
Ah, it's that kind of family. Well there's often a silver lining. I hope you find it
I have a lot of errands and chores I need to do. But I'll probably spend enough time playing KSP that I can't get it all done. Adulthood!
Damn I miss being an adult
Firing up the grill for Father's Day and inviting over both sets of parents; will have 4 generations together <3
Will likely throw some wood on the coals after to roast marshmallows and make s'mores for dessert :)
Work, unfortunately 🥲
Well I hope you get a pay boost for working on saturdays. Good luck
Is that a thing?? Ahhh I wish!
Taking my aunt for Father's Day lunch because she is both mother and father to me.
Also I quit Facebook and Instagram and don't use any other big social media, and it's amazing how less itchy my brain feels.
Good on you !! Did the same a week ago. It's amazing how much lighter I feel. Don't have to deal with random flatearthers anymore
Have a chill saturday
I'm a bit sorry because I enjoyed the sovereign citizen groups I'm in for the laughs, but it's nice to disconnect. You too!
I'm in the middle of a livingroom remodel. This weekend, the plan is to fix the leak in the roof, rebuild thr staircase to match modern codes, and install the new hvac ducts. If time permits, I'd like to start hanging drywall, but I know thats a stretch. I want to get the room done by the 4th, and I'm not sure if I'll make it.
I got a lot. We have company coming over Saturday, but the house is not really ready for them.
They’re cool, though. So long as the house is passable, it’ll be fine. And it’ll be good to see folks.
I have to finish setting up a gazebo tonight, planning for entertaining (refreshments), and am hoping this weekend to do a bit more work on a fence that I’m (too slowly) building around our back yard.
I'm visiting a relative Saturday. I have work off until Thursday next week but unfortunately as much as I'd like it to not be the case, I have no plans really otherwise.
That's one long ass-weekend
Yep! I'm currently training a coworker and we have Wednesday off, he took Monday and Tuesday off so I followed suit. I really don't get a choice to take my vacation time while he is training, so I figured I'd join in on the long weekend.
My new pixel phone is coming in, so I'll be setting up GrapheneOS on that. I might try to setup some selfhosting projects I've been looking at. Maybe go paddleboarding.
Cooking for friends tonight to celebrate their 35th anniversary, plus one's retiring. Father's Day activities tomorrow. Invited to in-law event Sunday....
Project Zomboid with some friends. We have a pretty fun going on - instead of the usual playstyle of setting up a base, we're vehicle based and highly mobile.
Same thing we do every week pinky
Going out for pride events with friends
I'm going to the euros! Otherwise I'm watching the other games in the euros!
