My daughter is a licensed driver now. Wake me up from this dream, I can’t be this old now. I refuse.

@beardedtechguy Oh my goodness. Congrats. My oldest turned 15 this weekend, so I have a bit more time before that happens.

I’ve neglected social media again—oops!

April was busy, partly because of a big developmental edit.

Today, I start a fun copyedit—a fantasy book for children! So I grab my favorite editing-related mug and eagerly join the young protagonist in a new, magical world.

Sofi Tuckker's new song is just ridiculous...

...And I am kind of obsessed with it.

Check out "Throw Some Ass" on your favorite music streaming service. https://songwhip.com/sofi-tukker/throw-some-ass

I mean, check out the lyrics :Hehe:

Let’s play the Monday – I post a quote from a well-known movie. If you know where it’s from, post another quote from the same movie. We’ll keep the game going as long as people know quotes from the film.

"Klaatu barada nikto!"

@DXMacGuffin This is one of two things...

So, I'm going with the sillier of options.

Good morning and happy Monday!

Last week was...super weird for me on a personal level. Highs and lows all over the place.

I am hoping for a week that is...less eventful. Then again, I've already got a busy day with work followed by a PTA meeting.

Hope you have a great start to your week.

I had an ICQ account back in the late 90s, but haven't been involved in it in a long time. Wondering if it's worth making a new ICQ account.

...Or if the old account even exists anymore...

@aronow Hope you're doing okay. Sorry for the rough day. The only cat pics I have recently are from when I went to the zoo with my oldest (and 4 friends) yesterday for their birthday https://pixelfed.social/i/web/post/692450547649685430

But, they're kinda big cats here :Hehe:

Good morning and Happy Saturday! May the Fourth be With You this Star Wars Day.

Also, today my oldest turns 15 years old. 15 years ago, my wife was on her fourth week of hospitalized bed rest and I was training the person who would fill in for me on paternity leave. I got the call and rushed to the hospital. 10 weeks early, my oldest was born via an emergent C-section.

15 years later, here I am with this snarky, smart, creative, and empathetic kid. And I'm about to take them and 4 of their friends to the zoo.

Here's hoping the weather holds up okay!

So, I'm leveling up to Level 15 as a Dad today.

Skill wise, obviously I'm taking some ranks in Patience. I've got 4 kids with one teenager (and this summer a second one), so of course need more of that. Also, a few ranks in Dad Joke, since I take that every level.

I took Dual Wielding years ago, but I do get another feat this level. I think I may take the Truth Seeker feat, to make sure I get a bonus on my rolls at figuring out what my kids are doing and/or plotting.

"Well-behaved women seldom make history."
-Laurel Thatcher Ulrich, 1976

Yes, that's who originated the quote.

Respect for PhD historian and author, Laurel Ulrich, who said this as a passing remark originally in a study from 1976 about Puritan funeral services.

Good morning and happy Friday.

This week has been...weird. Between unnerving doctor's appointments (I have another today), busy evenings with the kids, a call from the school about my oldest getting hit with a tennis racket, and my oldest's birthday tomorrow - this week has been...odd.

Oh, on the tennis racket - my oldest tried to break up an altercation and accidentally got smacked with a tennis racket in the process.

So, it's been a week.

Tonight into tomorrow is my oldest's birthday party. So - bonus kids all night / into tomorrow.

What a week.

Good morning fedi friends - IT’S ! The launch event I planned is happening tonight!!

@aronow Woo hoo! Have fun with the event!

My day is...work, softball practice for my 9 year olds, then (hopefully) some Pathfinder. We have a weekly game, but it all depends on availability of the group of Dads I play with.

@mdmrn@urusai.social avatar

@aronow Yea! We're all kind of scattered, so we've been playing a few different campaigns via a virtual tabletop for a good 4 years or so now. There may have been a few TPK's over the years.

We've labeled our group chat "Dungeons and Dad Jokes." :Hehe:
