monday and a half

some of today was good: i finally published a new episode of my podcast! i enjoyed the time i spent with my family. my therapy session was constructive. i just *almost* completed exapunks, but it took me until a couple of minutes ago to finally realize that my solution is complete, just 28 lines over the code size limit.

OH.

but another meeting took place with toxic crusader demanding dumb, irrelevant shit and nobody saying anything. and a sinking feeling that this job is *really* not what i thought it would be, and that unless i make a move (even internally) that's not going to change. and that awkward feeling after telling someone what compensation i'm after and they go silent.

but in spite of all that, i haven't had coffee since yesterday morning and i'm already feeling better for it. i've decided i might just indulge on weekends, but i really don't *need* it when i work in an environment that generates plenty of anxiety without it.
