I caught myself doing 71 in a 50 zone, it used to be a 60, but they changed it, I only noticed when the lights started to flash on the radar display machine which was not there before (it's a portable one on a trailer). The sign on it said 50.

First time I experienced this. Edmonton... I was driving behind following my cousins car. She made the light but I caught a yellow so I gunned it. Yes! I made it through. After returning my rental car a few days later, Enterprise sends me a bill for the speeding camera from that intersection. Those Canadians are out to get you!!!

I should've argued there's no way a Prius could do that speed.

I cleaned the kitchen.

For the first time, ever, I alphabetized my spices.

I feel both a sense of accomplishment, and a sense of loss. Like not having my spices alphabetized meant something about how I lived my life.

Was shopping for travel-sized toiletries for an upcoming trip. Bought a travel sized deodorant then came home and realized my regular-sized deodorant is small enough volume wise for the TSA liquid ban.

Was super hungry so grabbed a couple Texas double whoppers. Turns out my eyes were bigger than my mouth and will have to eat the other one either latter tonight or throw it in the fridge for tomorrow.

Is that the Vision II? I bought one on eBay for my birthday last Oct and when I got it I was so disappointed to see the camera wasn't connected and a wire was disconnected and charred. I opened a case and dude was like, "It flew when I had it." I was like I don't give a damn if it flys! The damn camera don't work and is detached and missing freaking pieces! So I finally got moron seller to send me a pre-payed label so I can ship it back. Once he got it back he waited like 4 days then the form of payment he gave me was a BS E-check which took an additional 7-10 days for me to get my money back. I don't know why, but I should have given him negative feedback. He did have all 100% positive feedback too so I thought I really didn't have much to worry about. I should of broke his positive feedback streak by issuing a negative. I've sense not bought another vision II. I might be in the market for one latter on though. I really like to have one. The quad I really want is over a grand on Amazon. I keep buying lotto scratchers hopping I'll get a few K.

My boss is taking everyone out to an Irish pub/restaurant for lunch for someone's work anniversary, but I can't drink since I'm going back to work.

Discovered Windows 10 update breaks all my old cd/dvd games that use securom DRM.

Even though I almost certainly will never actually want to play them again this still bugs me.

I have a similar drinking problem, did a LCBO run before they go on strike, as I'll be going camping in a few weeks. I was tempted to get into some of the alcohol but have to work. Will have time off next week though.

Another FWP is that I cant use my new drone because of crappy weather. I attempted today since the rain stopped, but it was too windy and it ended up tipping with props spinning. I just wanted to hover it really low to get a feel for the controls. Decided it was a bad time. Tempted to bring it to work, but those are really not optimal indoors.

Why people stopped at the red light, just sat there and waited and waited while there was no traffic and there was no sign of "no right turn while red". I was stuck behind a vehicle at a red light at a major intersection earlier tonight.

My moles have come back again after a one year break. I managed to catch one with a victor out o sight trap but now that its been raining the rest have started digging deeper so I had to set some trapline's in their new runs.

I charged my old phone to use it with my drone but because I did a factory reset on it, the auto updates turned back on. So it was updating the whole time and the battery never charged. Android updates more often than Adobe products lol. I disable that crap and only do it manually like once a day. If I let it do it on it's own it will pretty much be updating non stop.

My 20 yo binoculars are delaminating so I'm in the market for new. I'm torn between cheap/light and good glass/expensive. I'm over-analyzing the crap out of it.

I recently dug out my Lemaires from the turn of the century. I use them to look at critters in the yard. They lack modern niceties, but they work.
