i'm syncing, i'm syncing

 sync is still syncing, i'm beginning to experience a little buyer's remorse.

my neck and shoulder have been a mess today.

i have spent, and continue to spend even right now - in the background, "it's compiling" - an enormous amount of effort (two work days, basically) trying to set up what should be a very simple demo. everything is broken. i feel like i've just been bashing my head against a variety of brick walls, repeatedly and enthusiastically.

today i thought to ask mr smear if he understands what we mean when we tell him that he needs to change his strategy. i worry about my kid, because he said he didn't. he did, however, rather enjoy watching me demonstrate repeatedly walking into the glass panel of a bus shelter in order to illustrate my point.

i had a long, very serious chat with sailor about an idea i had this morning. the only problem is that it went from a private chat in an empty room to a private chat surrounded by a bunch of dads waiting for their kids...

we raced to get mr smear to his therapy session, and just made it on time. i found "my seat" and had "my usual" while working and waiting for him. it was nice.

i was supposed to have a zoom interview, but it was postponed again. i'm so damned half-hearted about the job alternatives these days... i don't really want to work for anyone else. i want to build something really important.

i opened facebook earlier and was shocked to have received a warning for spam content, although it wouldn't show me what the original content was. i couldn't very well request a review if i didn't know what i was asking to be reviewed, so i tried to close it and open it again and came to the conclusion that somebody may have gained access to my account. updating all my security is such a pain in the ass, but i'm grateful that i wasn't locked out or anything...
