That makes sense, I could totally see that as a typo

I’ve always heard it used to describe the lazy person, but I guess there are multiple definitions. I used it referring to this definition: A hobosexual is someone who dates for housing, not love

I think people having a discussion and agreeing that one person stays home while the other works is completely fine. That’s not what my situation was, he worked, then he didn’t, then he refused to.

Sorry, no, that’s not what it means. It’s a word that refers to someone who mooches off of their partner because they don't want to work. That guy was just an ass.

Lazy ass hobosexeual played the part of a caring partner for 2 years. He was in someone else’s bed whenever I wasn’t home at night, I worked the night shift so that was pretty much every night. I was constantly exhausted after working 12-14 hour shifts all the time, so I asked him to get a job or do anything to bring money in. He didn’t want to so he found some lady who made more than me to take his lazy ass in. I (sadly) begged him to stay and kept in touch.

One day, he came over to help me fix my brakes and tried to kiss me. I turned my check because fuck that noise. He had the BIGGEST crocodile tears I’ve ever seen in someone over the age of 5. Told me that he still loved me, just wanted to feel like I wanted him there (me begging wasn’t enough I guess), said he didn’t love her, she had “gross fake tits”, said he only cared about her money and her boat he was living on, said he had to sleep in his car when HE left because he had nowhere to go, blah blah blah. I told him to leave and then I found her on Facebook. I told her everything he had just told me. That dumbass still went on to marry his lazy ass and he still doesn’t work.

That’s ok though, my current partner of 10+ years is a massive improvement. He’s not an alcoholic and he has a job, so I won that one 😁

Also. Fuck you Levi.

That will be stuck in my head all day now. THANKS!

I mostly use Apple Music because I have it and it’s easy access to a huge catalog of artists. I started using a little cheap MP3 player in my car that’s loaded with old Punk o Rama compilation albums, some ripped from my own collection, but many were downloaded because they are hard to find now.

I found a bunch of good bands at my library, so I checked the cds out and ripped them to my PC. I also frequent thrift stores for cheap books and cds. I’m slowly learning how to set up my own home network and I’d like to stream my own stuff on the go, but I have a lot to learn before that.

My favorite band is Green Day. I fell in love with them when I was 10 and heard them on the radio in the early 90s. They were my introduction to punk music and were my lifeline during some really rough parts of my life. I survived because of the 1039 smooth album and Star Wars Pod Racer on N64.

Just finished Road to Ruin by Hana Lee. That was a fun read and I’ll be giving that book to a friend that I know will enjoy it.

Currently reading Star Trek Voyager Ghost of a Chance by Mark A Garland and Charles McGaw. I’ve been picking up some ST books at the thrift store when I see them so I can read them between heavier books. I was always more of a TNG and DS9 gal, but I am enjoying this book.

100% agree. I’m not a fan of Earl Grey at all but Lady Grey is delicious. It has a gentle lemon and orange flavor that evens out the bergamot imo

I really enjoyed Fable for the End of the World. I picked a copy up at the romance bookstore on a whim because the cover was really pretty and the summary on their card sounded interesting. It was a really good book.

I LOVE The Expanse series. I was at a used bookstore over the weekend and a lady next to me was contemplating picking up the Leviathan Wakes. I told her she should grab it because it’s my favorite scifi book series of all time. She had watched the series and loved it, so I told her I think she would enjoy the books too.

There’s so much good stuff there!

I’m reading Road to Ruin by Hana Lee. I picked this up at a romance bookstore the last book crawl because the cover and summary on the back seemed interesting. It was a good choice!

I’m really digging it. Kind of like a Mad Max type world where people use magic to keep their cities safe. The main character is a sparkrider who uses her magic to fuel a motorcycle she uses to deliver items between cities. I’m about a third of the way through and I am enjoying it a lot.

My computer. I don’t game as much as I used to, but my PC can do so many things. It can provide endless hours entertainment and so many ways to learn new things. Learning makes me happy, so my computer makes me happy.

This doesn’t include my bunnies or my partner.

 

So it had been a bit rainy recently and I was starting to get concerned about the egg sac. It was over 2 weeks since she built the sac and there were white spots inside a crack, I thought it was probably a fungus or something that got them. I thought the babies probably died.

A few days later, I noticed she started spinning again, which solidified my theory of a dead sac. The new one was super green because she had been chowing down on some big fat bright green tomato hornworms. I was sad for the first set, but happy to see she had enough for a second.

It was really cool that I got to watch her actually put the eggs inside.

She was really skinny after, so I’ve been finding hornworms and inchworms to place near her and keep her fed. The plant she’s on is dead, so it doesn’t attract much and once the babies leave, the whole plant is getting composted.

Well, finally after long weeks of waiting, I found some of the babies coming out of the first sac. The white I assumed was a fungus was actually from them molting! They weren’t dead and there are SO MANY BABIES!! Just look how adorable they all are!! There are a lot more still inside, but every day more babies venture outside the safety of the sac. They are starting to show a little bit of color too. They are absolutely adorable!

Hopefully in another couple of weeks, there will be another set of babies 💚

 

A new update on my spider friend! A few weeks ago, I lost track of her and thought she left the garden to find a safe place for her egg sac. I was sad that I did not see her for a while, but I eventually found her halfway across the yard on a tomato plant. The day after I found her, she was doing a funny little dance and I suspected she was getting her sac ready. I was correct and she laid eggs that night!

Since then, she’s caught some tomato hornworms and she got really fat again.

Then I was out of town for about 10 days and the tomato plant died. I’m no longer growing it for tomatoes, now it’s just shelter for my friend. This lovely gal completely changed color while I was gone to match the reddish brown of the surrounding leaves. And she continues to eat the hornworms whenever she finds them.

I can’t wait for her babies to hatch!!

 

Just wanted to provide an update on the green lynx spider that’s been living in my garden. I’ve been watching her since late June when she was this tiny thing that was missing 2 legs.

She’s definitely getting a lot bigger! She caught an earwig yesterday.

I found one of her molts in the garden and took a picture.

Last night I found this handsome fella looking for love a few leaves over!! She was pretty close too.

She had him for breakfast this morning 💀Hopefully he is bringing her lots of nutrients to make some green lynx spider babies!

 

This gorgeous little lady has been living among my cucumber plant for 2 months. She recently moved onto my zucchini plant after I had to start spraying the cucumbers with neem oil for powdery mildew. Her zucchini leaf also has powdery mildew but I don’t have the heart to cut it off the plant because she’s made herself a little home there.

When I first saw her, she was missing 2 legs and she was very small.

Since then, I’ve noticed a few of her sheds in the cucumbers and she has tripled in size. Last week, she even caught 2 honeybees!

I never understood why people fear spiders. Just look at this beautiful gal! Such a pretty shade of green too 💚
