Mostly lurker, sometimes poster, I'm bad at social media. Yoga and plants make me happy. I watch too many kdramas, drink too much coffee, and never get enough sleep. Enjoyer of bad puns and dad jokes. Burnt out software engineer.

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.
@jeannie I do, yeah— which I'm absolutely grateful for, my job is really flexible with time off, that's like the number one thing I actually like about the couple of tech jobs I've had. My next week off I'm taking is probably in about a month, I just have to make it that far, haha 😅
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
@Antigrav I hadn't heard of that one, but I may have to add it to my (ever-growing) list! I like historical kdramas too — although for some reason I find I have to intersperse them with other stuff and can't usually watch them back-to-back, haha.
@Melinda Definitely confident! And pretty, though they can also kinda be jerks, at least to other birds 😂 But they always make me smile to see! I also recently learned that blue jays are corvids like crows and ravens, which I thought was pretty neat!
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!
@knizer @universalhub Either way I'm using it as an excuse to not go into the office on Tues!
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".
