Remember:
A new years resolution doesn't have to be to change your behavior to better fit the society's expectations.
It can be to simply remain authentic and unmask even more.

Out of the blue this morning, I got a severe anxiety attack. Was on my way to the shower, but had to run upstairs to the bed.
Partner was forced to drive the kids to school, then woke me up at 1100.
- Didn't you have an important meeting today?
Yes.
Now I feel guilt and ashamed.

Had a lunch with one of the process & operations guys today, talking about the way of working in the company.
His face turned all pale, not once - but several times - as he realized how my manager is trying to dodge the wow and hide what's going on in his department.
Things are spicing up.

I seem to have a tendency to piss my manager off.
Well, maybe - just maybe - because he seem to be a little micromanaging and taking decisions without considering what impact they will have.
But, ive got my back free.
Now, we've just got to do the best of the situation.

The happiness of finding a 10—pack of electrical tape in E12 colors. Or, as normal ppl would call it "in the colors of the rainbow".
Only... There's no violet! :(
But, I have been labeling cables. Lots of them. Anyway!

The surprise of finding out at 1515 on the last Friday of the month, that some people have expectations on my new role to track and report certain progress on certain other teams by the end of the month - but my manager never informed me about that.
After asking, he said "no, but yes". Ah well...

Finally got to actually document what I've been investigating for the last week.

Nice!

Seems my manager got pissed off by me today. Because another manager and a project manager got pissed and escalated that I raised a consequence caused by the PMs inpatient to wait for confirmation regarding some important desicions.
I guess it will have to be fixed with duct tape in the end...

My turn to sleep this morning. Plan was to meet up with family at the inlaws. Alarm at 1000. One hour later, partner calls and wonders if I've woken up yet.
Ah well, coffee and music in car. Always something.

I lost track of how many times I fell asleep on the highway to work today. Not sure I managed to keep my eyes open as much as they were closed.
Truly amazing I didnt veer off the road.
Im too old for getting up early after going to bed late.

After a day of working from the couch or bed (well, mostly responding to questions on chat), managed to take a quick trip to Denmark for a stand-up comedy show, then directly back home again.
Felt good to laugh a bit. It's been a while.

God damned. Its 0130 in the middle of the night, and I've just closed the work laptop.
Because on Friday morning I shall have completed an online training that I haven't had time to do, and that's what I need to do tomorrow night, and I've got work meetings all day tomorrow, so...
Ah, well.

I need a shower.
Weekends are hard. I used to enter the shower directly after the first jar of coffee. Wouldn't leave the house unless I've had had a shower and clean clothes.
But nowadays, it happens at least once every weekend, I neither shower or change clothes.
I can't make myself do it.

Weekend again. Don't know how to kill the time. Garden needs attending - as usual. But so does my brain; by a pillow.

The closest part of the disc can be at any angle, but since the part which goes behind the BH, has its light bent around the BH so it will look like the far side of the disc is bent "above" the BH.
Just as in the famous first ever close-up image of a BH.

Slowly. But forward.
Soon weekend again. Better relax and gather energy during the upcoming days to make it through another weekend.

Got a box of cables and other stuff for the studio, so I could hook up another synth which I had lying around.
But, despite having multiple boxes containing every possible cable in numerous lengths, neatly sorted, did I have the adaptor cable I didn't order?
Baah.

Finally, I've been able to offload a number of tasks at work and backlog is slowly decreasing.
But I'm exhausted as fxxx. Won't be able to have a nap for at least 1 1/2 h or so.
