numbness

inscryption is hard. and kaycee's mod is even harder. but i keep playing, i keep tasting success, i keep getting crushed.

it's now 1am, i should probably be going to bed.

...

the school year ended on a good day for mr smear, so that's good. his day ended on a not-so-good note, which was entirely my fault, and i hope i managed to smooth it over. that was bedtime, but the rest of the evening together was pretty good, and we had a pretty good time playing table tennis together after i came home from work.

work itself was good. i didn't realize i was on-call until halfway through the day - so there's that - but i made good progress on my latest project and i'm feeling alright about its timeline.

oh... and our "face-picker" sat next to me today, and once i noticed i just couldn't unsee how long his fingernails are. i really, *really* wanted to say something, but i cleverly kept my mouth shut. there's no way i could have said anything that would've come across as kind and supportive...

...

otherwise, i'm generally feeling a bit numb. i'm avoiding anything political / war-related, and my head's not right for getting anything useful done right now. maybe i should focus? or maybe i should give my soul a rest.

i should probably give myself a rest.

once upon a new year's bleary

 the last day of 2023 was alright. i don't think there was any drama yesterday, and work was fine* until home-time when i suddenly started feeling not-great. i felt okay again by the time i got home.

* although i had trouble dealing with a "face-picker" in a meeting. he just wouldn't stop, and i don't know how much my face betrayed my disgust...

after my family went to bed, i spent my new year's upgrading my phone control project, and i was awake for the midnight rocket attack (fortunately not directly in our area, but the explosions were crazy loud).

i finally climbed into bed around 1.30am with a partial success (the critical bits). i'm now trying to complete the mission before jumping on the dishes before heading off to work.

...

2023: never again.

may 2024 be a complete 180 degree turn to good things, may we get all our hostages back, thoroughly destroy hamas, and finally bring peace to our region.
