Yet all I see is I&#8217;m four years until I reach my 50&#8217;s, and according to my mother it&#8217;s when my health will go down the shitter. I don&#8217;t see myself reaching my 60&#8217;s. It&#8217;s just depressing, and it&#8217;s also perfectly normal to feel this way.<br \/>\nYet, the child in me still enjoys being told &#8220;happy birthday!&#8221;, getting cake and pizza. That is what bugs me the most, that one day in the future my body is going to &#8216;reject my childish ways&#8217; (like what happened to my mother, why she can&#8217;t really eat what I like eating without feeling sick).<\/p>\n<p>So for now on I&#8217;m going to do what Jero does, and see my birthday &#8216;being another day&#8217; and not mind it if noone cares. So, child at heart.. it&#8217;s time to grow the fuck up and stop being all &#8220;WOO BIRTHDAY!!!&#8221;. ..I&#8217;m too old for this.<br \/>\nJust feel I &#8216;don&#8217;t deserve&#8217; all the nice things that happen. Not anymore. Yet my child at heart refused to listen and still was all &#8220;hey everyone, it&#8217;s MY BIRTHDAY!!<br \/>\nWOO PARTY!!! \ud83e\udd73\ud83e\udd73\ud83e\udd73&#8221;<br \/>\n*facepalm* ..When am I going to grow out of this?! I don&#8217;t know anyone of my age that celebrates their birthday like this. Because usually (by my age) they have a car and can go to a pub and get wasted on their birthday with their IRL friends. That there is the birthday adults typically have&#8211; a day that&#8217;s unlike other day, to get away from their hectric life of waking up, getting dressed, driving to work, driving home, flopping in their bed and doing it all over again.<br \/>\nBut me&#8230; my child at heart still thinks like a fucking 10-year-old. Refuses to grow up.<\/p>\n<p>Basically I feel I &#8216;didn&#8217;t deserve&#8217; everything that happened this day, like 10 people saying &#8220;happy birthday&#8221;\/Bubba and Dusky coming into the call and singing the Happy Birthday song\/getting a card from my Waffle House server&#8230;, especially from Bubba who wanted to make my birthday special. Well, you sure didn&#8217;t when Jusper told me you&#8217;re<br \/>\nthe &#8216;dom&#8217; in yourall&#8217;s mini-relationship, and then expected me to give you two a response of how I felt about it.<br \/>\nHonestly, just leave me alone and let me be depressed on my birthday. I&#8217;m not bothering you, so please don&#8217;t bother me.<br \/>\n==============================================================<br \/>\n<em><strong>Needed RAM upgrade<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n==============================================================<br \/>\nFinally moving away from the main thing, I did want to give myself a birthday present at least. Something I could use. And thankfully I found one, in the form of hosting a <em>7 Days to Die<\/em> server for Kovo, Nova, Bubba and anyone else that wants to join.<br \/>\nWhat I didn&#8217;t realize when my computer was being choked to death after 4-5 hours of gameplay, is the game was taking almost all of my 16GB RAM. I have never, ever seen a game require this much RAM. Usually, most games are either CPU or GPU heavy.. but never RAM heavy. The last time I played a RAM heavy game was back when I<br \/>\nplayed <em>The Sims Online<\/em>.<br \/>\nSo, I clearly needed to upgrade to 32GB. And thankfully (by the skin of the remaining teeth in my mouth), one seller <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B07MTZN7ZD?psc=1&amp;ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">had the RAM I need<\/a> and in the frequency of my current RAM.. and they only had one of them left to sell. WOW. Am I lucky or what?!<br \/>\nOriginally I had it set to arrive on the 20th, but they claimed it was going to arrive on the 19th instead. Yet it still came on the 20th.<br \/>\nInstallation was the same as any RAM install. Just push the two levers down, align the RAM into the slot and apply ample pressure until it &#8216;locks&#8217; itself in. Oh and be sure to get the direction right, as it&#8217;ll only go in one way.<br \/>\nJust&#8230; don&#8217;t do it like this guy. It hurts. Oh god it hurts.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/benies-blogs.com\/images\/Discord_2022-08-22_18-07-42.png\" width=\"507\" height=\"424\" \/><br \/>\nThat poor (ancient) Kingston 256MB RAM stick. \ud83d\ude2c It didn&#8217;t deserve such a beating.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/benies-blogs.com\/images\/Discord_2022-08-22_18-22-32.jpg\" width=\"507\" height=\"424\" \/><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/c.tenor.com\/sKo6sI-a6SIAAAAM\/make-it-stop-stop.gif\" width=\"352\" height=\"197\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Hello! \ud83d\udc4b Once again it&#8217;s been awhile since I&#8217;ve made a post.
