It's half four in the bloody morning and I've been up for 2 hours already. Someone commiserate with me :( (lemmy.world)

See title.

Had a weird dream where I was trying to take part in a Lemmy thread but lots of people were commenting on it from Mastodon as well and something wasn't working right between the two. I can't remember specifics but it was extremely frustrating in the dream and I woke up fuming.

So naturally the adrenaline of possibly the world's first(?) fediverse-based nightmare had me wide awake and unable to get back to kip.

Not the best start to what was supposed to be a relaxing weekend!

It’s 10:35 pm here in Chicago. Just had a lovely summer thunder shower. Cubs lost because they’re fucking losers. Had a nice bagel today. My cat is curled up in a ball next to me sucking on his tail (its just a thing he does)

I went to the UK for the first time back in Dec 2021, it was amazing but Big Ben was half covered up. Stayed in Shoreditch, had a great bagel there too (you know the place). Couldn’t believe the graffiti was everywhere but I guess it’s a thing. I felt like Sherlock Holmes or Jack the Ripper the whole time (didn’t act like it though).

I saw my first firefly yesterday and it was amazing.

How are you? Hope you get some sleep.

From,

Chicagoan

Well, you weren't too far away from Whitechapel - maybe that's why you had Jack vibes.

Thank you for the company while I mentally stomp around the place and complain. I'll crash and nap for a bit later and then will be back to my usual perky self I'm sure!

Sorry your Big Ben dreams were dashed, but if it helps at all it's just a big clock. Also someone is gonna come along and tell me that ackshually it's the name of the bell but I know and I've had two hours sleep do not come for me right now.

We went to Chicago in 2015, it has the dubious honour of being the worst airport I've ever been through. On the bright side we thoroughly enjoyed the giant shiny bean, and also the zoo where we saw a zebra pee for an absurdly long time. I also saw my first ever real life yellow school bus driving down by Lake Michigan and was thoroughly overexcited.

Congrats on the firefly! That does sound good, like the sort of thing you normally only see on TV.

Give the kitty a pet from me :)
