He woke up to the sound of his two alarm clocks. It was fairly early in the morning as the sun was far from up. Slipping from under his well worn sheets saturated with sweat, the man made himself upright. Staring blankly for awhile as his eyes focused he contemplated laying back down for an additional 15 minutes. '15 minutes more couldn't matter that much, right?' he mused internally until speaking aloud, "Dang, if only I didn't need that damn money!" How he kept finding himself with so many bills was beyond his understanding. Surly all of the money spent over the years went towards worthwhile things! Though it wasn't the case in actuality. The guy sucked a budgeting and when it came to spending it didn't take much to beguile cash from holey pockets. However despite a lack of planning their always appeared a silver lining made of golden opportunities! One such opportunity appeared in the form of a change in career. There were wanted signs posted all down town asking for tractor trailer drivers who could travel long distances. Being single without children, he had no obligations preventing this chance to make something of a small fortune. Yet the hardest part of getting started was the actual getting started! "Groan! Don't know if I've got any coffee left in the downstairs kitchen, but oh well. Why must I suffer so?" he frustratedly exclaimed to himself. This routine was typical of his usual mornings.

Returned to find I'm still stuck in a cave with no clear direction on how to progress. I now have too many objectives so trying to understand the simplist way forward is confusing. Not helped by the fact I'm not a fan of tedious side mission grinding either.

I don't think being selfish can necessarily be a bad thing. Especially in the case of work, especially since the point of people working is usually to get paid, and that's not a bad thing...we all need to eat and pay bills. Neither do I think it's bad for you to expect or want people to help you out, ESPECIALLY in a business setting. But, I do think there's a point one can cross when the selfishness becomes a bad or dangerous thing. Like, if you do nice or good things for people all the time to be seen, praised, rewarded or to later come back and demand they help you just because you helped them, that is selfishness pared with entitlement. I think depending on what feelings are paired with "selfishness" is what makes it bad or harmful. I'm sorry if I didn't make sense...but, I do have experience with people/a person that are selfish in all the ways that are upsetting XD.

I'm sorry to say this Dennis, but after reviewing the medical test results we've concluded that what you have is indeed "terminal." You've got six months to live. Have you thought about planning a trip to Hawaii? There's this classic movie about a man with terminal cancer sky diving into an active volcano as his last hoorah! If you would be interested I wouldn't mind starting a donation thread so we can afford to book you that flight over Mt. Kilauea. Please let us help in your time of need, Dennis. I want your final moments to be memorable and to not waste what precious little time you've left becoming frustrated and lost or worrying over the cost of feeling alive again just one last time. The sign couldn't be more clear, Dennis! Take the plunge into a volcano on your next terminal visit to Hawaii!

When a person is always at home and does not go out, it is 20-22°C. When he walks here and there, the difference between outside and inside temperature is a maximum of 6-7°C. And I have photovoltaics, I don't deal with consumption.

As a Heartless Nobody, I heed you be careful with that which makes one whole. Lest you end up like the rest of us.

Apparently some Anime Rave is going on in October. It seems like fun, though I laughed at the hashtag ( #WeTouchGrass). Anyone in the San Antonio area ever heard of it? I sure haven't but will check it out. Link: https://wetouchgrass.kydlabs.com/e/EV27c71795-fd5f-4899-831b-4e033d0ee65e?referral_id=g-cd00aa92-04b7-4263-babd-c66045a030d5
