Good morning. It is 2021-01-09 16:50 UTC (08:50 PST). I’ve finished today’s #YoCo ( #yogurt and #coffee ) and have planned a day of relaxation.
I’m probably anticipating too strongly, but today’s schedule includes:
* phone call with #Daddy_A and #Little_Boy_A and possibly playing a game together
* videochat with brother and his wife + other family members
* #videochat with #sonTwo and #GS3
* phone call with #faveNephew
* drawing something to send to #GD1 and #GD2 ... the younger granddaughter hasn’t been sending me any of her animations recently.

#faveNephew texted to show me that he has both new consoles.
I got both Atari 2600 VCS and Intellivision in early 1982. Then, after my funds were gone, I learned about the Commodore 64.
-
Security keys (yubikeys) are starting to spread in my family. I bought one for my mom, one for each of my kids ( #sonOne, #sonTwo, #Daddy_A ), one for nephew #Papaya, one for #faveNephew. #lazyNephew is buying his own. Nephews #Honshu and #PizzaMan are waiting to see what their brother does with his.
This is a multi-year project, but interest has picked up considerably in the past month or so.
-
Hilarious! #lazyNephew, who wasn't interested in security keys, suddenly asked whether I had a spare Yubikey, and not the $20 model I got for his brother #Papaya and cousin #faveNephew. He asked about a $45 model.
So now he's going to buy it himself. Reason: the admin of the game server he plays on is requiring them soon to prevent account takeovers.
-
My sister that lives here tells me that another sister's family has #COVID-19, except for #faveNephew.
-
Recently visited one of my sisters who doesn't live in the same house. I showed her and #faveNephew a photo of the tub after #lazyNephew showers. (We have to have his mother remind him to clean up behind himself.)
Y'all just don't know.
-
#faveNephew called last night while I was looking for children's clothing, so I'm finishing the order today.
We talked about my recent trip to #MO and my plans to move there. We discussed certain family members who are wedded to living in this area and how moving will affect them.
We discussed his cousin #lazyNephew. Work ethic, cleaning and cooking (or lack thereof ... I sent pics of the tub after LN's shower). We talked about the way LN spends much of his money on eating out, then can't pay his cellular bill or put gas in the tank. (His mom--one of my sisters--bails him out every pay period, then wonders why she's broke.)
We discussed FN's commute to work (he's not sure how long he can keep doing it, but his agency is paying him a location bonus for the office where he's assigned), potential advancement paths, and what it is like having a new supervisor that resents his higher education level. And potential paths into other agencies.
He worked late enough that traffic was thinner, so our call (during his drive home) was shorter than our normal calls.
-
I'm not joining the conversation, but I am reminded of learning a few phrases in Puerto Rico, then calling #faveNephew and him telling me "we don't say that" and "we don't say it that way".
-
@geniusmusing #faveNephew keeps telling me that he wants to take me to #Mexico next time he goes to visit his grandmother, but at this point, I doubt it will ever happen.
-
Good morning. I spent most of yesterday on the road, so today I’m going to try to catch up with the things I missed.
Got to see a couple of nephews that I haven’t seen in a while. One was returning from physical therapy (workplace injury followed by surgery). The other was returning from work. #Fave_nephew was still at work, as was my niece #LG.
-
Talked to #faveNephew last night about his cousin #lazyNephew. Starting to get frustrated with him about him not contributing around the house (and with my sister for not teaching her sons that "everyone contributes when and where they can").
-
@triodug I hadn't seen the term "Latinx" until the Superbowl. So I asked #faveNephew, and he said it's a US thing ... he said not to say that around real Mexicans (his dad is from Mexico and he lived there for a while).
-
@triodug Nah, you won't be cancelled for the N word. You'll be cancelled for calling yourself a "Spic" instead of "LatinX" or whatever today's name for Hispanic is. (I really need to call #faveNephew and ask, so I don't use the wrong name when talking with people from that branch of the family.)
-
I'm not watching the news much. I know about PG&E PSPS in #NorCalbecause $EMPLOYER has some offices in affected areas.
.
According to #faveNephew, SCE is also running Public Safety Power Shutoffs in some parts of #SoCal.
-
There’s some Nintendo event going on. #faveNephew sent me the annual photo in the crowd with Pikachu in the background.
-
#FaveNephew: You could have just taken the bows off.
.
(Talking about my grandson's shoes. Instead of baseball themed shoes, I originally bought shoes with a little bow. I was distracted and on the phone.)
-
Today’s shirt says “Do me a favor and stop talking”. #faveNephew said that the shirt fits.
-
Today we drove to visit one of my siblings. It was nice. Right as we were about to pull out of the driveway, #faveNephew came home.
-
I think I need to tell these guys to make an appointment. Mark from work, #sonTwo, and #faveNephew all called multiple times tonight while I was on the phone with one of the others. The total calling time was only two hours (Mark alone can often use up three hours), but spread out your calling times better, please.
My son has an interview for a better-paying position with his current employer. My nephew is settled into his government agency job and starting to turn down offers outside the agency (I told him to move to another employer before he hits the five year mark). My co-worker’s GF just left our $EMPLOYER for another agency and now she’s starting to make hints that maybe he should be looking to leave.
-
I was on the phone with #faveNephew until late, so I didn’t return Mark’s call.
