Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I think it is genetic. My mom and my grandma also slept crazy weird hours.

Coding and Sleeping

I don't even know how parents function. I am so bad without sleep.

New parents use a very liberal definition of 'function'.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I have done the look-back and next year's goals part of my review, now I have to do my development plan. I don't want to work on any areas next year! Fuuuuck.

I don't suppose they'd react well to "Next year's goals: Get a great new job somewhere else," would they?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That would be amazing, though.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I wonder if there are some steps in mental preparation for a job search that you could parlay into development goals - deveoping networking mojo, polishing up some marketable skill that could make you more well-rounded as a candidate, something...

Yikes, shrift. I hope the mindfulness helps!

I should have meditated this morning, because people are complaining all over the place about how I haven't answered their goddamn tickets. I have four more days to answer your stupid ticket, junior employee. Don't start with me.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Sort of related to the FB discussion from yesterday, someone I have blocked because she only posts about the skincare products she sells DM'd me to see if I knew people she could recruit.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I used to put a future goal was to retire. Not received well.
