Went to warm up my coffee in the microwave.

I put in the wrong time. When the turntable stopped the mug was at the back of the microwave and I had to reach toward the back of the microwave to get it.

My life sucks. Why even go on? What’s the point?

In my microwave about 57-58 seconds brings the mug handle to the right spot. Your day will get better.

It would be a selling point if a manufacturer would create a microwave with a “return to home@ feature which always ended the cycle with the turntable at the same place it started. It seems like it wouldn’t be that difficult in theory. All it would take is to have the turntable rotate after the heating cycle is complete until it is back in the same position.

We have a cheapo microwave. A 30 second bump places the handle perfectly back for grabbing. But the light doesn’t come on if it’s not running so I have to turn on under cabinet lights. That sucks.

have you mouth breathers not figured out that one revolution in a MW is 10 seconds?

Anyway, my K-1 this year is taking forever because of all the M&A's we did in 2024. It's a hard life...

I had to get a new work computer because my old one was not compatible with 64-bit Microsoft Office, which I needed to install Oracle SmartView.

Have had to spend this week resetting all of my logins, accesses, etc.

If they did this it would surpass the invention of the wheel.

Better than forgetting to put the pot in the coffee maker and starting it.

In town to see Acid Baths first show back together.

The Air B&B doesn't have my brand of coffee, and I wasn't able to bring my pipe and lighter on the plane.

However I did bring my extract, and now I'll have to go find a pipe and lighter (shouldnt be too hard) to start my day off with when I go out to get some coffee.



I'll probably just go to CC's for nostalgic purposes. Anyways, my FWP.
