and a few minutes ago i just submitted my resignation to the company i've been working for for the past six months. six months without a contract, little to no team interaction, anxiety at every payday, and zero improvement on my sleep schedule. now i have two weeks to make sure i leave everything tidier than when i arrived, and hopefully get my sleep cycles relatively straightened out.

...

on the health front, it was definitely a good idea to uber to the doctor this morning and not drive. i was feeling faint and woozy the entire trip, while my stomache had begun to come right during the night the rest of the horribleness came back, and while the doctor agrees with my assessment that it's a bug i'm fairly certain that it's cranial nerve pinching again and it's always impossible to tell.

funny, though, how ideas can be stronger than our physical bodies. the pharmacist made a comment about dairy allergies (she's dairy allergic) and was shocked and intrigued to learn that it has such an enormous impact on breast and prostate cancers, never mind the calcium-leeching that causes osteoporosis... that pumped me up to "almost well", at least until i got back home again.

day 3 of being sick: i remembered that i have physical books to read, and pulled down volume one of the deadpool collection. AWESOME.

my sickness / wellness has been on/off the entire day, and i had to take gd and mr smear grocery shopping which really took whatever i had left out of me. aside from dinner and showering mr smear, and putting together my resignation letter with my mom, i've basically just been trying to rest as much as possible. not sure how much good it's doing my neck, though...

... one thing i'm super-pleased with - the encryption tool i put together on the weekend? 86 downloads in three days. the idea that others are getting utility out of this is really exciting! oh, and on a vaguely related note, vector seems to be finding his feet and just put out this music video which i thought was very cool.
