6.817. Reflections on a Tuesday

Spent some time with the daughter today and it was nice to see her growing up and funny to see her hanging out with couples older than me. This is a strange fact: She’s socially older than me. Her partner basically operates like a retired hobbiest and that makes me giggle. Gotta love them. Gotta love life when it gives you a chance to do so. I feel like I’ve been in an enormous and terrifying funk as of late and I really feel happy about the chance to feel, well, happy. Even if temporary it is like, well, rain in the desert.

And I had mini chimichangas.

Some Thoughts:

  1. Finally took a stab at the daily planner and wasn’t entirely overwhelmed. I’m going to dig in deeper tomorrow.
  2. Been playing upwords and I enjoy the game. It is a different strategy than Scrabble and I’ve lost two of three thus far. I’ll get there.
  3. Been short blogs and been slow thinking. Not the best version of myself possible.
  4. I feel like I am healing my connection with the story verse and I am afraid to push it less that slender tether snaps yet again.
  5. The key to getting paid as a faculty member is professional growth. More to the point it is about documenting professional growth. I haven’t. As such I am paid just as much as a new hire. I need to fix this.
  6. Madden is waning. We’ve lost all or most of the interest in the league. So, what do we get to do together? Board Games? Watching shows? What about talking? I mean the boys of course. The partner dynamic works just fine.
  7. Started a new class today rooted in Conspiracy Theories and it is going well so far.
  8. Also, got to a place in Elden Ring where I can actually farm XP efficiently and build my dream character. I’m gonna go sicko mode.
  9. Speaking of which, I’ve heard an interesting and funny conspiracy theory: Travis Scott is a cultist and his music drives people to murder.
