Wow. And that was just some lolcat pic, if I recall correctly.
OK, so, I'm still alive, still not divorced, still having to go through hell on a regular basis to spend time with my kids. Still living in the same place, now doing computer and management work for a real estate investment company that specializes in revitalizing distressed / neglected / non-functional primarily commercial property. It's actually fairly cool, given the wide variety of tasks that I can get into if I wish. We've got a restaurant/bar & grill we just re-opened about 15-20 mins away that presents all sorts of challenges, for example.
I'm not going to go into my personal life much here, since I have no idea who reads this (and what their agenda might be). Suffice to say, I'm in a great place 95% of the time, when I don't reflect on how much I miss my kids. I had no idea how bad that marriage was for me mentally until I was able to look back on it with clear eyes. Anything else going on is just icing on the cake.
Last night I had to buy a new power supply for me laptop. It cost me just over $100. I find this very irritating, b/c I'm sure one of the reasons why it was so much was the 8,012 different tip adapters that came with it. I know they do this because it's easier to stock just one item that works for a billion things rather than a billion items, but I really don't need something that can, given aforementioned adapter tips, power every device known to man including the transmission heater block of a 1973 Buick. I just needed 15V at a max of 5A.
I might be lying about the Buick.
