What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.

Happy Birthday, Kiba Rika!

Happy Birthday, Zenkitty!

Sounds like a good plan, sarameg. I hope you can get some good sleep today.

Forgot I can't shower when laundrying.

Coding and Sleeping

Came into my office and nobody was here. I had thought maybe they had moved and nobody had told me. Turns out only most of the people have moved, not all of them.

I've been in a really down place lately, feeling like I fail at everything I do. Not sure how to really break out of it.

I'm sorry, Gud. I hope things get better.

Argh, I left my journal at home. I think I might need to go home and get it. That's pretty silly, and yet if I don't I know I will forget something I meant to do. Will ponder a bit more...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh, sorry, Gud.

I am settling in to my new office, which seems OK, except I don't have an extra drawer for my shoes. Also the desk back is solid, so I can't stretch out my legs, which I hate. Actually -- I'm alone in here for the moment, so maybe I can swap desks around. I like my spot, just not the physical desk. Edit: Nope, they are all like this. Hate! I liked my old table.

Did, in fact, dash home. Confused the dog, but I feel much better.

I have successfully made baba ghanoush! It was super delicious. I could eat it all summer. I feel like I deserve some sort of sticker, like Adventurous Cook! or maybe It's About Time You Learned, Sweetheart!

You're a better cook than I. I tried making baba ghanoush from scratch years ago and after hours of work and about $30 in supplies I ended up with one bowl of almost tasteless dip.

I've never been able to recreate the good smokiness of the baba ghanoush that I can get from the good Middle Eastern restaurants here.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

So far my birthday has been all about cleaning the bathrooms. I may be doing this wrong.

That does not sound optimal, Zen.

Dear salesperson, if you are going to ask me to do something today that I asked you yesterday if I should do, maybe acknowledge that we just freaking discussed it? Would cut down on my throat-punching urges.
