Wife: Your 40th birthday is coming up, what do you want for it?
Me: A watch!
Her: Really?! You have loads of them!
Me: So?
There's one I've been saving for her to get me as a gift. To say that I'm now excited is an understatement. Not gonna say what it is yet, but I cannot wait to get it on my wrist.
Also bought another watch last night. I think this means I need to probably sell a couple again...
My wife and I βupgradedβ to our fancy-pants new memory foam mattress this weekend, but neither of us are sleeping well. I hope it gets better as we get used to it. π³
My kids (well, letβs be honest, my wife) know Iβm a greedy bastard and got me this for #FathersDay.
I think I win Fatherβs Day, right?
(and yes, some of the donuts are gone already π)

I just logged into #LinkedIn (something I do very rarely) and this is what I was greeted with. Like, seriously, how the fuck is this even usable? Maybe it's time to delete my account...

Apologies if you subscribe to my Watch Log feed. I just pushed a change to it that fixed a small problem, but that problem was with the guids, so feed readers think everything in it is new.
Sorry again. π
Me: This year, I'm gonna get that field looking like a bloody lawn, and I'm gonna cut paths into the other field like a big maze.
Wife: You're a dreamer, Quirk! The grass is far too long for you to cut paths and you're never going to get a FIELD looking like a LAWN.
Me: Hold my beer...
