Having coffee, smth sweet and a followup cigarrete in the morning makes me happy to be awake. Or kiss goodbyes and hellos.

Doing psychedelics and getting in touch with my creativity or inner child. Tending to my altar, and spiritually feeling like I connect with my ancestors.

I make a point to name files and folders in a goofy way pretty often. "BigListOfSerialNumbersIGuess", "SurveyStuff", "RandoDocs".

Somehow I keep it all straight, much to my colleagues' dismay ๐Ÿ˜‚ good thing cloud-powered search is friggin quick

Making tea gongfu style almost daily makes me happy.

It's a relaxing ritual for me. And I get to enjoy good tea.

It's also nice when my partner and friends join me, so that we can enjoy it together and have conversations over tea

My nerdy dad liked to tell us to "watch out for orcs!" dropping us off places. I carried on the tradition, and even though he passed a couple years ago I get to enjoy his joke since my SO and I say it to each other all the time, or variations of it. If its a water related destination I like to evolve it to "watch out for orcas!"

We've been playing Baldurs Gate 3 lately so its been "watch out for mind flayers!" a couple times, but the point is just a silly reference to something we love, just to add some goofy fantasy to an otherwise normal day. I like to imagine Orcs popping up irl in goofy ways when I hear it, like one charging the car while I wait for the atm thinking its some great metal beast. Or taking all yhe ground beef at the grocery store for a "great feast!" Plus one box of twinkies. Dumb shit like that :)
