inWhy does nobody warn you that a sleeping pill at 2am turns a grocery list into a face
Tossed the bad ones for years until my sister told me to keep a folder just for the creepy stuff. Now I have a beat up manila envelope in a drawer labeled "do not open before coffee." Every few months I flip through and the scary ones have lost their bite, mostly they just look like scribbles from a tired brain. The ones that still get me are the ones where I clearly tried to fix it while still half asleep and made it worse. So I keep those too, because at least they are funny in the morning.

inWhy does nobody talk about how I bought 4 tins of sardines at a Porto grocery in 2019 just because the lid had a little painted fisherman on it
Three unopened tins is nothing. I bought the whole gift set last Christmas because the tin looked classy on the shelf, and now it sits in my garage collecting dust next to the treadmill I swore I'd use. My dad still brings it up at every cookout, asks if I've caught anything with my fancy crackers. Worst part is the fisherman on the lid looks so proud of himself, just staring at me every time I dig around for a screwdriver.

inLogged my 500th play of Catan last night and half my group thinks I have a problem
My cousin got really into tracking her plays after reading some board game blog about how it helps you see patterns in what you actually enjoy versus what you just buy. She said the numbers showed her she was playing heavy strategy games way less than she thought and party games way more (which made her stop buying the heavy stuff). Tracking is just a tool, same as any hobby where people log stuff (runners, readers, whatever). Five hundred games in seven years works out to about 70 games a year, which is barely more than one a week, so Dave calling it a sickness seems like a stretch. The 11 straight losses thing would bug me more than the notebook, no lie.
