Luke Hand's Rollercoaster Day: Console Chaos and Plant Surprises
I've followed this project for so long and been looking forward to them going on pre-sale literally for Years. I've been an evangelist for the product and told scores of people about it, so to miss out on being able to order in that first batch that will ship This Year was so upsetting.
Ever had one of those days where everything seems to go wrong, but you find some unexpected joys along the way? That's exactly what Luke Hand experiences in this episode of 'Luke Hand Diary'. Luke wakes up at the crack of dawn, 2:55 AM to be exact, to preorder a Playdate portable gaming console he's been eagerly anticipating for years. But things don't go as planned—the order form messes up, leaving him frustrated and empty-handed.
After a nerve-wracking wait, he finally manages to place his order later in the morning, though it won't ship until next year. The disappointment of missing out on the first batch is palpable, especially since he's been a huge advocate for the product and has told countless friends about it. But Luke doesn't let this setback ruin his day entirely. A surprise package from friends Dani and Harry arrives, lifting his spirits with a thoughtful Viz jigsaw puzzle.
And in a quirky twist, Luke shares how he followed some unusual advice from Facebook and ended up peeing on his plants! This episode is a rollercoaster of emotions, from the agony of missing out to the simple joys of friendship and unexpected adventures. Luke's candid reflections on handling disappointment and finding ways to cope will resonate with anyone who's had a day that didn't go as planned.
