  1. Shaving my face always makes me look 16 again.

    With my beard, I look 47.

    I don't get it.

    But I'd say the first time I looked at myself and thought, "Damn, you look old and a little tired," was 25. I'm not quite 30 yet. I haven't slept right a day in my life, and my age is beginning to catch up with me. I starting to get some serious lines under my eyes. 

  2. I'm on Haswell and dual R9 290s. 

    Completed my build in 2014, I think. Power draw is incredible. Heat output rivals my 500 watt space heater where Crossfire comes into play. The Talos Principle is gorgeous on max settings but I get noise complaints every time. 

    I used to have a cheap Raidmax case but my partner got me a Define R5 for my birthday and everything has A LOT more breathing room now. So that's good. Still noisy but I figure I'll swap my GPUs with a single newer one and see if I need to do a CPU upgrade then. 

    At that point, we're talking new PC money. :P

    My folks are self employed, but their work is heavily dependent on having something to do. 

    Both their jobs are super dry in the summer months so they spend all day in the pool for two months straight and get 34 shades darker for it. But in their busy months, which I'd say are February, March, May, October, and November, at least one of them is working as much as 18 hours a day every day for the next month or two. 

    Me personally, I couldn't do what they do. That's why I work for an organization, haha!

    Yeah I get that. We don't have kids, but one of my old bosses (really cool guy, I miss working with him) has two kids. He and his wife worked out with their supervisors whereby they alternate days in which their hours are moved back to accommodate their kids' schedules with school and daycare. So two days a week, he worked something like 0600-1500. 

    This was six years ago. I think their youngest is in high school by now so I'm sure he works the same hours everyday at this point.
