My grandmother turned 90 this week. Went to a party for her today, saw family I haven't seen in years. And at least one I've only ever talked to on Facebook.

Good so far, but it's barely begun. Looking forward to the warmer weather outside.

I think I'm doing okay. Had two arguments (on message boards) with far left LGBT people. Got called a Trump supporter, Log Cabin Republican, evangelical Christian, a liar about Muslims infiltrating our country in increasing numbers and a self-hating gay. The name calling and false identification are irrelevant. Twice I was told I could never find evidence supporting my position. Oh, man, did I get reams of evidence. I also made sure I used checked with www.mediabiasfactcheck.com to verify that my sources were not from the right. All came from center left or the left. Slammed their accusations down. Haven't heard a peep out of them yet. They always think the goal is to spread lies. Always think it's about what they were told. Never willing to think and explore things for themselves. Sad to say I used to be like that. Guess I'm grateful some idiot called me a white supremacist in order to send me down another path, one where I could evaluate things on my own.

Quite well actually, my mother got a buyer and is now in the process of officially handing her house off to someone else for good. Also a little sad, I'll miss not going up there for visits.

Been a tough couple of days, spent yesterday and half of today with IT dept to get my laptop at work to work (few weeks ago my hard drive blew on a brand new laptop). My mobile won't accept voicemails. My PC at home went wonky last night and finally got it to work. Still having trouble keeping a game from crashing, so have to fix that. And now I just deleted my channels in discord. Don't even ask I couldn't explain it if i tried. I thought okay I accidentally deleted one so I'll go to the next server and ask someone for the link. The day can't get any worse. Well maybe it can I still can't play any games. Yeah I know I'm an idiot.

Parts Unknown is a pretty weird place. There's guy's constantly ranting about this kid named Cane Dewey, a face painted musclehead talking about feeling the power of the warriors above and some dude constantly stealing stuff and sneaking around claiming he's repo-ing my stuff. It's crazy. Today's been good, aside from having to go to a funeral tomorrow and all the anxiety that brings from family members not seen in years and other happenings with being around a bunch of people I don't know well. Another day of Spring-like weather and productive work earlier. Now I'm just relaxing and thinking about writing/typing something up again and calling it a short story. Just gets me thinking.

My boss is retiring today. I've worked for her for the last ten years, and she has been by far the best department head I've ever worked for. I must admit to being a little nervous to meet her replacement next week.

Things are okay. Slept in, going to see friends tonight and watch Avengers: Endgame. My nephew called it predictable and overly long. No real surprise there.

I'm not even going to try to watch it until maybe sometime next week on a weekday. The nurse was chatting me up during my hospital visit, she said everything in the area was booked up all weekend.

It's with a bunch of friends, like 10 or so. One guy bought them online for everyone as soon as it became possible.

Yesterday was a shit day. Between downtown burning, my great aunt's memorial, and a close friend of the family dying it sucked. Today I'm just chilling with my dog and keeping in contact with my gf at work. Worried for my dad, oldest brother and stepmom as they are all police but thankfully my parents aren't working inner city anymore. Just hoping this all blows over and becomes a distant bad memory but staying prepped and informed nonetheless. Most I can do right now is discuss it with people and laugh when we can.

Things are better, the anxiety has faded away. Looked at my work schedule and saw no hours next week. Store might be shut down as the shopping center nearby was looted. Then I had to deal with explosive sounds the last two nights but the claims about them being people looting atms turned out to be bs. Most people I've talked about it with believe it's the National Guard using speakers to keep people from roaming the streets. Those sounds haven't been happening in the daytime and usually before it starts at nightfall there's normally the sounds of much closer together. I'm mostly over it but still not letting my guard down. Thanks for the thoughts @dustyelf,
