Man of Sand<p>I love telling jokes and being able to use my humor to break down barriers.</p><p>But sometimes, I wish people would take me seriously.</p><p>Like some people assume everything that comes out of my mouth is a joke. They start smiling and laughing before I even say anything. So weird.</p><p>I'm not just an incredibly handsome man with funny jokes. I'm quite intelligent too ya know? :)</p><p>Ah... <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/ageing" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ageing</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/adulting" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>adulting</span></a></p>

Man of Sand<p>Went to a family birthday yesterday. It's funny how much dysfunction exists between generations. Elder generation still believes in 'respect' and traditions. Easily offended. Younger generations have so much apathy, unmotivated and are oblivious to social cues. </p><p>So glad things like this only happen once or twice a year. </p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/family" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>family</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/ageing" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ageing</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/adulting" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>adulting</span></a></p>

Denis 🌏<p>and I did not expect it to take all day (more or less) to do my taxes.</p><p>So I suppose if I did the math on how much my time is "worth", one could argue I'd be better off using an online service. But I hate that they lock your data up and make it hard for you to get to your own information. Ugh.</p><p>On the plus side, having spent most of the day doing my taxes, I feel like I can WHATEVER the f*ck I want to do for the rest of the day.</p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/adulting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>adulting</span></a></p>

√-ʇoɾəuɐnɾ 🍜🦄<p>I just got a conversational opportunity to quote Tom Waits’ line from “Step Right Up,” (in gravelly voice) “The large print giveth, and the small print taketh away,” thinking as I said it that I would feel smug at the reference.<br>But given what we were talking about, I didn’t feel so good about its application to reality. 😔<br><a href="https://beige.party/tags/adulting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>adulting</span></a></p>

ThreeOfUs<p>Cs been out of the mother and baby unit for a week now. It’s been a good week as mum and dad have been staying with us, and I’ve been able to get on with some jobs, so at least the house is more up together. I’m going back to work next week, and mum and dad leave tomorrow, so I’m worried about how that’s going to go. C is much less capable than I thought when I first met her. I suppose caring for her is real <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/adulting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>adulting</span></a>. The older I get, the greater the burden 😐.</p>
