Ordered some clothing for #Little_Boy_A and #Little_Boy_A2. The 7 year old and the 4 year old have the same waist size, so ordering pants is sort of questionable. Will the legs be long enough for the older child? Will this shirt fit the younger child without dragging the floor? I often try to avoid #Amazon, but this time, I ordered from there. One of the things I dislike about …

@mangeurdenuage > > Best Buy's Geek Squad > I believe these guys aren't only not reasonable with their prices but also do a shit job. Well, yes, they likely do. Like a lot of places ( $EMPLOYER included ), I think they need to complete a certain number of repair jobs per day to justify their jobs. So if the repair is going to take longer, they might resort to halfway jobs that…

I'm not sure I'd ever use a 3D headset. Just a few minutes of 3D on the #3DS and I turned that completely off.
Maybe I'll change my mind when I can get to KC and try the 3D lightsaber game that #sonOne and #GD1 play.

Trying to recall which of the Highlander movies I saw with #sonOne when we had our weekly movie during his high school years.

I awoke to see a screenshot of #sonOne's order of clothing for #Daddy_A's daughter #Little_Girl_A3. He got everything: shoes, socks, pants, panties, shirts. There's even one item that might be a jacket. Now grandpa needs to put in an order for clothing for #Little_Boy_A and #Little_Boy_A2.
I also have a list of items to order for #GS3.

#sonOne received a “Libre Computer” “Tritium” SBC, with a similar form factor to the !RasPi 3B as a birthday present. It was only $15, but he was still very appreciative, as he’s aware that I’m currently on unemployment benefits.

@guizzy #sonOne once worked for Best Buy's Geek Squad. They saw all sorts of unsavory materials on HDDs. He never mentioned illegal "call the cops" material, but I'm sure they had it.

Still reading the voter information pamphlet and filling out my ballot. Sending political comments to #sonTwo, because we can talk about such things without getting angry. ( #sonOne immediately wants to argue if one believes even the slightest bit differently than he does; #Daddy_A gets silent and stops talking to you ... sometimes for months ... when such topics come up. )

#sonTwo's wife told me what she bought him for his birthday. I haven't even started looking for purchases related to adults' birthdays. I should look for a belated something for #sonOne first, though.

Now that I'm back in #SoCal, #sonOne's wife's test results came back negative. Unless it's a false negative, she does not have #COVID-19.
-
#sonOne only watches when he can be there in person, so I know he's not watching. We used to go to Dodger Stadium 3-4 times per year.
By the time #sonTwo was old enough to do the trip, I was going less frequently, but we went to lots of minor league games.
I don't recall taking #Daddy_A to a major league game, but we went to a few minor league games.

Was able to #videochat with #sonOne, #GD1, #GD2 for about an hour and a half today on #Wire. He's been working 16 hours a day since June, but he got a week of vacation. It possibly means that he'll be unavailable again in a week, but I'll try to do #videochats with the kids. Was informed that #GD1 lost her phone. #GS1 likewise lost his phone, but found it and sent it to sonOne …

I bought the Dora the Explorer toy guitar for #GD1 (currently 13 years old) when she was two years old. Naturally, I had no idea it was so loud when I bought it. #sonOne still reminds me that I bought the loudest noisemaker possible.

@realcaseyrollins@counter.fedi.live was talking about "canon" in a movie series (Marvel / Spiderman). Not long ago, #sonOne was talking about how he only accepts the original Star Wars trilogy and the newer movies (not the prequels) as canon. Thinking about it, I don't know if "canon" is an adequate way to look at it. Each "universe" has multiple characters, each with their own…

Missed #sonOne’s #videochat call today, so we still haven’t connected since June.
-
I won’t get to see #sonOne or #GD2 near their birthdays this year, thanks to #COVID-19.
-
#sonTwo has asked me to return later this year and again in the first quarter of next year. I'll try to come some time between Thanksgiving and Christmas.
I'll need to rent a car that time, so I can zip up to see #sonOne and possibly #Daddy_A also.
-
#sonOne messaged me on Wire to inform me they're quarantined.
#COVID-19

#sonOne wasn’t available for #videochat when I called today, but I know he’s been working 16 hours a day, six or seven days a week since June, so it is okay. I’m expecting to see him in person soon. I should also see #GD1 and #GD2. I really miss seeing them in video each week.

Saw a big 48 pack of the brand of TP my mom likes, so I bought it. Also got Duplo blocks as my gift to #GS3 (like giant Lego blocks for younger children). #sonTwo and his wife are excited about my visit to #MO. They've already made plans for me to return in a couple of months. Let #sonOne know I'll be at his brother's place, three hours away. Now we'll have to schedule a day…
