One year, we decided to pass the new year eve in an uncleās house at some god forsaken hole with our dog. After a neverending trip during wich our dog farted in the car, we finally arrive. The said uncle was a radical ecologist, wich is not a problem per se, except when his only conversation subject is about the ecological collapse, not the ideal subject for a good atmosphere, with in addition to that my sisterās BF, who was with us, doing his Mr. know-it-all show. Then we went to sleep, and i realize that i forgot my earplugs. No luck, everyone in my family was snoring very loudly, including the dog. Result: i didnāt sleep at all and looked pretty much like a zombie the next morning.
I always hate Christmas, so kind of all of them. My mom is a hoarder so it always starts with finding just enough space for that stupid tree. Iād just prefer to be alone in silence.
Maybe when I was a kid and got a new phone. I kind of canāt act happy spontaneously, so I just had this ālooking happy and surprisedā shit prepared. And it worked, rather too well. My dad insisted on recording me and then putting it on Facebook, and got mad at me because I disagreed with that. I think I just had to put up with it anyway.
2023 - He bought me some HP inkjet printer. I thanked him and explained I donāt need it, so that we could return it. Again, his usual speech about how useless he is, that he shouldnāt have been born, that he always wanted a happy family and never got that, āOther men beat their wives and kids and they still love them. I donāt, perhaps thatās where I made a mistake.ā and he canāt be talked to at least until the next day.
Same goes with any disagreement, even stuff like when I donāt want to watch a movie with him.
My momās words of encouragement are that I am a heartless egoist like my father, that I should never get married, and how much I owe them because they gave me the gift of life. Former is likely true, I am a piece of shit indeed, but I didnāt decide to be born, they did that.
2022 - Just disappointing because I had better expectations.
It was Christmas Eve night already. I said Iāll take the trash out, but also secretly took my phone, OTG cable, USB extension cord, RTL-SDR and the extendable dipole antenna. I expected OK-ish pass of NOAA-15 and a great high elevation pass of Meteor M2. I thought I could have some fun on Christmas maybe.
Well, I got the APT and DSB from NOAA-15, but I couldnāt detect any signal from the Meteor. Iāve still seen what I think were Orbcomm sats, so it wasnāt fault in my setup.
Well, well, well. My luck - Meteor M2 has died earlier that day.
