My brain just overlaid the way technical interviews sometimes feel for me with that video from a few weeks ago where Maxine Dexter decides to start swearing

I had a "virtual onsite" of interviews today and I hope it went well enough that I can stop doing virtual onsites and start doing actual work again 🤞

My cat Beth is currently flopped on her back on the couch, watching the room from upside down just because she can. Cats are so good

Ive said it before but Ill say it again Gardening is a lot of fun and growing things is nice but also you learn a valuable lesson which is: I would absolutely starve to death if I needed to grow all of my own food

I'm not certain I genuinely experience the Luigi thirst (aroace era), but I am incredibly fond of the collective Luigi thirst. Congrats all for another day of good content

Really hoping at some point that people realize that a man who gets called “very smart” isn’t necessarily moral, and maybe isn’t even smart.

Over the last few weeks I have been growing many oyster mushrooms as a coping mechanism and today I cooked them all and ate them (well, a lot saved for leftovers). Appeased my inner gardener during these winter months

I've been reading Cate Huston's "The Engineering Leader" over the last week and I'm really enjoying it - complements current coaching efforts really nicely, and it's packed with advice specifically for under-indexed folks. Plus appearances by a few people I actually know!

Two job opportunity interview pipelines kicked off this week, 🤞 one or both will be fits!

Had a good call about a job opportunity today, but have been spending the evening trying to integrate that with the general bummer vibes of the last month + general fatigue with job searching

We haven't been able to plan big travel while I'm between jobs, which is a vital winter coping mechanism - but that's feeling like a bit of a silver lining at present with all the distressing air safety news. Grateful the PNW is abundant with closer-by opportunities

There's just the slightest touch of spring in the air today and oh thank goodness the end (of the seasonal depression) is near

I was able to walk for 45 minutes today after being mostly housebound with the snow + ice + slush and wow I feel so much better. I was feeling an uncomfortable level of background anxiety and now I feel settled ☺️

I had exactly zero plans to see the new Captain America film in theaters, let alone on opening day, but then a friend said "snow day movie?" and snow day movie changes everything. It wasn't as bad as I was prepared for 🤷‍♀️

The Guster "we also have eras" show was such irreverent fun! There was a puppet! Costume changes! High school theater grade acting in a former high school theater! Sometimes getting old is fun

This was a project that was in progress pre-peak seasonal depression, so finally seeing it through feels sincerely great

It's too dark and I'm too sleepy to tidy everything up and put the panels back on tonight, but I got the new fans to work with the new controller so I'm happy

Took a break from the job search because seasonal depression was really kicking my butt... trying to start things up again and get back into playing with some tech stuff to get my head back in the right place, but part of me is still dragging her damn heels

I ordered some emotional support mushroom blocks when I was peak seasonal depression a few weeks back and they are really delivering on premise
