I accidentally deleted my root directory then botched the backup of my home directory by failing to copy my config files over then failed to check that before overwriting the SSD with my backups on it. I have learned many hard lessons today.

After 6 years with the same company and multiple firings and delayed payments, my salary got axed in half, but the owner got a new Cadillac, so yeah I started to reach out to every hubspot agency out there and thank god I got 2 interviews with double the salary.

I’m scared, happy and sad, I am sure there is a German word for it.

Thank you for this post op this is what the internet was like so many years ago.

Weekend flashed all too fast. Still haven’t swiped the dust of my shelves, but it was productive. Wish I could find the time to get few other things done.

I feel down. I haven’t felt happy in a long while / few months. The danger of depression is there but I believe I’m not at that stage yet.

I’m down because I’ve made no progress at a project for work for a few months now. Everything seems to be breaking and out of my control, it’s a bit tiresome to deal with. Plus the Tariffs have derailed whatever FI plans I had, so I’m pretty much stuck here.

During lunch with my colleagues today some of them expressed that my home country is desirable to live in from a security and convenience perspective (from Singapore). But Singapore is also soul-less and boring, and that irks me. I still want to have the chance to live overseas in a cooler and more relaxed climate, but yeah with the job market being shit and tariffs ruining everything, I might be stuck in Singapore for life.

Nice

I drove across the state and back to visit my extended family. I learned I truly don’t belong anywhere. The drive was long, through trump country, with billboards for confederate history month, and my family are maga.

I wish this was satire.

Also traveling as a single parent is exhausting

Pretty shitty. I’ve just been in a really bad mood lately, and kinda felt like shit all day. And I had to close at work. I really hate closing.

Cubs won, had a baked potato bar for dinner. Pretty good day.

Would’ve been better without all the rain.

Honestly great I got to bike till my legs were sore & saw an amazing sunset

I went to my first Cars and Coffee today, and then got into a very minor accident with my Miata this evening. Barely a scratch, thankfully. Someone slowly crept into the back of me with their jeep Renegade at a stop.

Lovely day of volunteering. Not sure how to tackle the mountain of work waiting for me on Monday though.

So-so. Trying to get some electronics working but they’re being stubborn. Had to take a lot of frustration breaks.

The good - Helped my son move, which sucks because i have a bad shoulder from a bike accident recently, but there were 5 of us (family) so i was able to stick to lighter items. Was nice to spend time together and support him. He’s been with us for the last 3 months and i know he’s ready to get back into his own space. Exhausted and sore, but feeling good for him. Also, have some restaurant gift cards, so I’m hoping for a cheap date tomorrow.

The bad - i have a cat that will not use a litter box and cleaning the floor beside/under the box every fucking day is making me crazy! Also, have a bunch of work to get done before Monday because I’ve been slacking.
