Life is never easy, but it does get manageable without major stress. But you still have stuff like your sewage pipe backs up and now you need to get part of your floor replaced and wrangle the insurance company, and even though you can afford it you rather it hadn't happened.

Those are the kind of problems I'd love to have. I don't expect life to be without problems- they're what keep life spicy and interesting - but being able to throw money at problems makes life less stressful, and easier

I can confirm that being able to throw money at problems does reduce the stress by a lot.

I will be doomed to be stressed forever.

Someone on the Steven Universe subreddit pointed out that Pearl has a shotgun and I made an Army of Darkness reference that seems to be going over quite well.

If you don't want to click on the link, here's what I posted:

That, Steven, is called a boom stick. A weird human with a large chin fell from the sky one day and told us all about it centuries ago. Then we fought dead humans who inexplicably returned from their graves.

My sister-in-law applied for a job at Muffins and Scones.

See this is an example of personal blog stuff. No one knows your sister in law, or Muffins and Scones. This wouldn't even be that interesting on your personal social media page. Why do you feel the need to share this info on a retro gaming focused forum? It isn't even the news she got the job or not, just that she applied for it. I am sure there will be a follow up post though on if she gets it or was denied...

If I had to guess, I would wager that REPO is either happy that his sister-in-law wanted to apply to possibly work with him or is happy at the prospect of working with her.

Opening post on this thread doesn't mention video games once, but does mention a wedding anniversary, a funeral, and greeting cards. Another great first-page post complains about naked old guys in the locker room.

It is oversharing and he dominates the thread.

I'm happy because she's been out of work for a while and she and my brother are two months behind on their rent.

Found a Jungkook BTS Pop for one of my nieces.

Hit a wall with one of my other nieces. None of the musicians she likes, nor her current favorite show, have any Pops out. At least not for my price range.
