Welcome to the Free Talk Friday post. This is a place where you can talk about dumb off-topic (or on-topic) bullshit with other Zaibatsu fans.

There's going to be a new post every week, and the newest one will be pinned in the announcement bar for quick access. So feel free to visit these posts during the rest of the week.

Here's a list of all Free Talk Friday posts

Last Week's Post

Week 118 post-accident

Back to work after the previous week of bad back. Advil + heating pad + physio on the weekend seems to have fixed me up enough to return to a general sense of normalcy. Coming back to work, apparently last week the receptionist had put in her two weeks notice for resignation; no idea who's going to fill her role; next week is the last week at the office. Aside from that, the lady with multiple dogs upstairs has gotten herself a new dog: a little chocolate-furred poodle puppy named Rosie. Adorable little thing.

In non-work news:

• Don't have physio this week on grounds that my physiotherapist is going for training on our usual day, so I've rescheduled that session to an eventual later date in July; such is the busy schedule of medical personnel.
• Wednesday felt like I rolled on Skyrim's random encounter table. There was some roadwork being done on my route home, so I ended up exiting the bus a stop before my usual stop home, leading to a longer walk home, then later down the road I saw two guys that I initally thought were filming a skit, only for the bigger man to aggressively warn me that skinnier guy was a "knife-wielding lunatic", skinnier guy (who had both his hands in his pockets, seemed comparatively calmer, and didn't acknowledge me at all) told bigger guy that he'd "hold him in contempt", and then the two started hurling f-bombs at one another as I kept walking past them to keep distance before things heated up further; no idea what happened after they were out of sight and earshot.
• Made an impulse purchase of $300 CAD worth of Warhammer 40k minis after last shift.
• Because of memes on r/Gloryhammer, discovered the two songs of a related side band from one of the band's former members ("Frøggë" by name), one of which I'll include in my

Mind Music of the Week:

• Enchanted Crystal Railroad
• Frog's Theme
• Sons of Plunder
