Been a busy week at work. I've taken on an additional management role and I'm repeatedly surprised by how childish my peers are.

Now there are 2 kid's birthdays my son is invited to. He's autistic and my wife can't handle him. So it's going to be a busy weekend for me.

Trying to keep regular with the gym after hours. Annoyed about having to put time into figuring out what's broken the network connectivity on my computer now that I'm using Linux.

At the end of it all, I'm loving life. Happy to try to make the world better through my job. Really happy to spend time with my kids and try to support them through the world at large.

Good. Kind of a dull week at work, so I am happy for it to be over

On my side, pretty good, chill weekend ahead

Had a serious case of flu that got me midweek. Haven't been remotely sick in any way since even way before the pandemic, so I guess my 40 year old corp- uhh, body wasn't entirely up to par when it got that smackdown.

Apart from that, I took a midnight walk last night fully intending on taking my own life. I was stopped by two neighbor cats that walked with me and demanded attention. This normally never happens. They kept following me until I burst into tears, played with them, thanked them for saving me and walked back home bawling my eyes out. For some reason these two angelic furry creatures just had to show me that, if nothing else, they appreciate my presence and companionship and would somehow miss me if I were gone.

So, nothing out of the ordinary all things considered.
