Between the two evils of open floor plans and hot desking, I hate hot desking even more. If I at least know where I'm sitting every day and can leave my seat/desk/monitors set up the way I like, I can deal with the layout. Of course I have the worst of both worlds in that it's both open floor plan AND no assigned/permanent desk, so fuck me I guess? At least it's only twice a week, but it's so gross.

Another day at work, another morning I feel like throwing in the towel. I'm just not seeing how I come out of this funk without making a change, but I'm too afraid to quit without having something else lined up, and I feel too out of it and exhausted to look for something else while I'm working, even if I knew what to do next. Rock, hard place. Every day it takes more effort than it should to open my mouth and make words come out, process info/meetings, or get literally any work done. #burnout

Pretty sure I had a dream last night — god only knows why — that all of my social media profiles started redirecting to my LiveJournal from high school. Talk about a nightmare 🙃

1. Finished another good #kdrama . The Good Bad Mother. I cried, but it was so good 😭
2. The blue jays were back in my front yard! There were 6 or 7 of them hopping and flying around all day looking for acorns (of which there are... many). Been seeing a lot of them lately.
3. BAGELS 🥯😍

1. Finally watered my plants that needed it
2. I painted my nails and now they're shimmery
3. Said hi to someone new at yoga today. Not easy for me!

Well it's been a hot minute since I've been on here, and even longer since I posted. I'm bad at social media. I've checked out Bluesky on and off the last couple of days, but so far all I really like about it is the different feeds (and everyone just being on one instance, for now). And then I was like "I'm just gonna check out mastodon again".

Every day I hate React, JS/TS, and the whole frontend ecosystem a little bit more. Maybe about the only thing I don't hate currently is Tailwind. Having a statically generated React app and then trying to work backwards to get server side rendering and code splitting to work just feels so bad and it hurts my brain. Maybe there's a world or team in which this isn't a complete mess, but I don't know that I care to keep trying to find it.
