All Good Things

I have good news and I have bad news.

The bad news (which isn't really) is that I am giving up the ghost.

I am retiring this blog. 

Retiring it, I must add, after...wait for it...EIGHT-AND-A-HALF YEARS. Eight is a lot of years, Invisible Internet Friends.

And you know that everything in my life is so far, and so different, from where it was when I began this crazy blog-thing. Writing about being huddled over my laptop shirtless, slurping soup, before another internet date. (Shirtless because I didn't want to get soup stains on my date-night shirt; soup because it was literally the only thing in my entire apartment that could come close to qualifying as "dinner material.")

It's not like I have my act together now. It's just packaged differently. Not SF; Napa. Not single; married. Not bored at work; overworked. And there are kids somewhere around here, probably using permanent marker to draw "pirates" on "your fings, mama." And yet in soooo many ways? My messy, crazy, full-of-silly-spills life is exactly the same. It just has totally different wrapping paper.

  17. Despite being legal in most states these days, weed is still looked down upon by those who can’t get with the times. Nothing shows their condescension worse than a mandatory drug test. If you like to get baked on Friday nights after work, there’s a chance you might be unemployed by Monday when they force you to pee in a cup. Thankfully, you can fight this by using a dandy synthetic urine kit to hide all that THC you just consumed. That’s why we’ve compiled a list of the best synthetic urine kits: This powdered urine kit by Test Clear is the customer’s number one choice when it comes to needing a real urine simulation product. All essential compounds, particularly uric acid, are included.

  19. The price is 8997, source. When you're purchasing the product, it depends completely on what you can manage. Whether it's powdered or liquid, both versions are tricky to manage and have their own issues. Weigh your options well before jumping in to buy synthetic urine. Whether it is liquid or powdered synthetic urine, you need to make that fake pee seem real. Whichever brand you choose to use, the product will have detailed instructions for you to follow. However, if you're looking for a quick introduction to know what you're getting into, we have a quick rundown of the whole process. For Powdered Synthetic Urine Using the powdered form is a little tricker than you'd expect. Since there is more mixing and creating involved in the process, many tend to shy away from it. However, since it always comes with a kit, at least you won't be running around for the materials. Sidenote: you won't be able to create the pee in a public space. But when you've got all the materials and found the perfect location, you can start making the sample. To do so, simply pour the required amount of powdered synthetic urine into a directed amount of distilled water. After shaking the bottle until there's no powder left, you get the foam and the required smell of urine. However, you'll have to heat it in an appropriate manner to get it to the right temperature. Make sure the sample remains between 90 to 100 degrees. Shake it once more before you provide the sample for drug testing, and you're done! What makes it so complicated is the exact measurement of water and heating you're supposed to maintain. If the change is too drastic in measurements and temperature, you could ruin the whole sample, so be careful! For Liquid Synthetic Urine There are no complicated instructions with the liquid synthetic urine. Once you've cracked open the container of pre-mixed fake pee, you heat it up to the 90-100 degree range. Maintain the liquid at that temperature till you have to take the drug test, shake the vial, and use! You might have guessed by now that temperature is crucial to the success of fake urine, be it in a drug test or otherwise. However, knowing the right way to heat up your fake pee is just as important.
