Stuck on the iPad Pro for now.
Because my new iMac showed up this morning and I’m setting it up.

Tonight's Bad Purchasing Decision:
Vigilant Navy Strength Gin, to be mixed with Indian tonic water and a little bit of sweetened lime juice.
(Note: Did not notice the stuff was Navy Strength 'til I got it back here. First time with the Navy Strength variety.)

Tonight's Bad Purchasing Decision: Drumshanbo "Gunpowder Irish Gin". Mixed with "Not Your Father's Mountain Ale" (Mountain Dew flavored shit, basically.)
Tasty. Gunpowder's always got a re-up on my shelf.

The new iMac, by the way, is an absolute peach. Coupled with a Das Keyboard 4 Pro and a Razer Deathadder Elite mouse, this rig has boosted my productivity immensely.

Or horrible flavored water, or foods. Fortunately, you don't need to worry about what kind of horsepower is under the hood of your computer, or phone, or the smooth, white inside of dried tree bark, or whatever you're using.
Doesn't take a lot of effort or resources to just sit around and sneer at somebody else's output without offering anything yourself, I reckon.

Friday night. Time for a sip. Budget Scotch. Small price tag -- big mistake. I thought only Clan McGregor could be shit Scotch. Haw. Haw. Try Fire XV Art.
Better yet, don't.

Good Purchasing Decision: Glenfiddich "Fire & Cane". Yum.

Another good purchashing decision: Bumbu rum. This. Shit. Is. Delicious.
Pure sipper. Mixing this would be a sin. Banana split with chocolate and a touch of caramel. Just gorgeous.

Today was payday. Well, Payday (Part 1 of 2). So Bad Purchasing Decisions abound:
On the adult libations front: Scapegrace Gold gin, to be mixed with cranberry juice. Tasty. Also, Laird's Single Cask Selection applejack, to be mixed with apple juice.
Elsewise, we have such delights as an air purifier to hopefully cut down how much of this fucktacular Phoenix valley area dust ends up in my place, as well as scheduling monthly housecleaning through Amazon Services. Oh, and a new desk chair, since the last one I bought turned out to be a cheap chink piece of shit that keeps sinking a centimeter at a time every minute, minute-and-a-half.

Fuck Axe, fuck Old Spice, go with Duke Cannon, bitches.

Try Duke Cannon and you too can smell like a Gay porn star. Also try Dick Cannons' ball cream. Guaranteed to rub you the right way.

Gay porn star is Axe and other such girly sprays. Duke Cannon smells like a woodshed, of the type yer ol' Grunkledy liked to send you into so's he could come along later 'n' plook you in the doo-doo hole.

New chair. Techni Mobili mid-back mesh task chair. MUCH better than the cheap chink piece of shit gaming chair I bought about 9 months ago. Sits higher. Padded armrests. Much nicer. We'll see if it pulls the same stupid "sinks by 1cm every 2 minutes" shit the cheap chink POS does.

3 boxes of Black Rifle Coffee. AK47 blend, CAF, and Just Black. Yummeh.

Grocery delivery on the way, bought a copy of Jordan Peterson's "12 Rules For Living", and currently sipping a G&T; that is, Hendrick's Orbium gin and Canada Dry tonic.

I (kind of) gave up booze for Lent. But I'm allowing myself Fancy beer. Partly because the idea of no alcohol for a month plus is abhorrent, partly because bock beer orignated (IIRC) as calories for monks fasting during Lent, and partly because what are you going to drink with fish & chips, Tang?
Anywho, the store had cans of "draught" Guinness. Since I don't get to drink Guiness as often as I'd like and since it pretty much fit all my criteria for Lent beer, I bought an 8 pack. It's OK. Didn't seem as good as what you get from a tap at a proper Irish pub, but there may have been some kind of...placebo?...effect? I'd need a scientific blind taste test to say for sure.
Anyways, NOT a bad purchasing decision. Had a nice little version of fish & chips with tartar sauce, a lemon wedge, cider vinegar for the fries, and some coleslaw with a glass of Guinness.

Wait, what, fries?! What the hell do you need fries for when you've got the chips?!
