- Sent my CV for another job. I doubt I’ll get this one, it was first come first serve and my skills are hardly unique.
- Failed to study… again. I did sit down to try and do that but I got distracted externally. Not blaming myself because “I can’t control others’ choice to interrupt me”, but perhaps I should, because “It’s on me to set better boundaries and/or just hit the bricks.”
- Cooked my first batch of white bean stew. It turned out okay; I just prefer other legumes.
- Finished watching Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. I understand why it’s a cult classic, and I really enjoyed seeing young Alan Ruck do things, but I don’t think it tickled me as much as I hoped it would.
- Got extremely stressed out about bureaucracy. Affidavits are scary.
- Tweaked the desktop layout of this site some more, we’re back at dithering and muted OG Tinted colors. I guess I’m a boring palette guy after all.
- Still worried about my nerve damage getting worse if I don’t stop taking my current meds. Reminding myself that it’s more important that I don’t stop treatment than worrying about looking funny to other people because of the shaking.
- Also questioning whether it’s true that it’s more important that I continue treatment or if it’s for the benefit of Society At Large. Subsequently, also reminding myself that last time I had a break it was terrifying and that this is subjective and true. For the best value of “true” anyone can have. Just take your pills, dude.
- Apparently Charlie Day is in the latest Mario movie. On my hands and knees begging the universe to free him from the typecast curse so he can work on things I actually enjoy watching.
- I theoretically have a toki pona taso call this evening… I’m a little scared, my oral fluency is shit compared to writing. But I will show up, and I will try to participate actively in the conversation.
