All California high school hours got moved back because apparently high schoolers NEEEEEEEED that one extra hour of sleep. No, it’s not like it’s a prime excuse to stay up even later drinking sodas and playing video games and not doing homework. And yes, maybe I’m just a little salty my hours got pushed back as a result. I loved my super early mornings because I was done so freakin’ early in the day before. I would have loved an extra hour of sleep in high school. Which is why I had study hall 2 years.... But I was 15 when my insomnia started getting rough. For the first time in at least a year bought a six pack of beer.Lazy Magnolia Southern Pecan,price had went up a few bucks. But a cold one while watching the sun set out by the lake today was nice.

It's September, which means here is more or less the start of Christmas season. Soon they'll start the 100 day countdown to Christmas.
I like the holidays well enough, but it always feels tiring whenever it starts so damn early.

It's 9PM in a few minutes, but kinda craving a -silog.
So, Filipino lesson time. The -silog is a breakfast meal here. The si stands for sinangag, a simple garlic fried rice, wile the log stands for itlog, or egg, usually a sunny side up. Now -silog has a first bit, and it can be several different things. Like, tapsilog is what I just mentioned, but the meat of the dish is beef tapa, a kind of cured beef strips. Hotsilog is hotdog.
So basically it's a simple meat dish with garlic fried rice and a sunny side up.
Simple, but flavorful, especially if you get the sunny side up runny and put it on top of the rice.

Less Than Jake and Bowling For Soup tomorrow!
Might even be more pumped for this one than I was Simple Plan and Sum41
Hearing ‘All My Best Friends Are Metalheads’ on an old Tony Hawk game years ago started shaping my taste in music.

I'm not big in the Marvel fandom but I follow a few people in that fandom. Monday, I noticed one of them complaining about the comics, that they're glad they don't pay attention to them because they're not the MCU characters they love anyway. Not sure what lead to this, maybe something new from recently released comics was leaked. Either way, today I guess more things about the recent comic made the rounds online and it involved a very sweet moment between two friends as they hugged. All of a sudden, the person who hates the comics so much started going on about how the comics gave these characters better characterization than the MCU did and proceeded to spend the rest of the day going on about this comic panel.
The whiplash in fandom amuses me more than it should, probably.

Less Than Jake was incredible. Bowling For Soup was… strange. Their music was good but their set was like 50% Bowling For Soup stand-up variety hour with… very hit or miss results.

Did they play the Phineas & Ferb theme?

Once a few months should be fine. Like, on a whim bought a half-kilo of chicken necks. All that skin and just a little bit of meat to work your way around... good eating.
Either marinate in fish sauce then fry, or put a bit of water and sprinkle salt and heat, then fry when it dries out. If I wanna make an effort, cook adobo style. Whatever it is, it's a good meal when you have a pile of rice.
In general, it's for pulutan, side-dishes when you're drinking, but as a meal with rice it's just as good.

Lately I've been getting these scam texts where they ask you to reply. In exchange I'll get a free Netflix mug and shirt. And months back they only offered the cup.
This leaves me wondering. I've gotten texts from various numbers about this for close to a year, so apparently the MO is working. And I wonder months from now what else they'll add to sweeten the deal?

Today was my first full day of a holiday in Turkey. I’ve spent it poolside eating, drinking and listening to podcasts.
Aside from the odd excursion, books and beach visits, repeat for seven days.

Kinda odd. Went to store in my neighborhood, and on a phone or something it was streaming audio of a guy describing a Game of Thrones episode. Just to be super clear, the TV series, not the novels, and it was in Filipino. As I recall, it was the episode where Daenerys had been brought into the Dothraki camp in the later seasons and she kills everyone.
Might not have blinked an eye if it was some sort of audiobook, but it was a guy just telling what happened on the TV series. Like those video game novelizations.

I've got my 360 controller dismantled in order to give it a well overdue clean and thought while I'm doing it that I'd have a look to see if I could find replacement analogue sticks for it since one is slightly disintegrating. See if you can spot what caught me off guard as being out of place:
