Jan. 30th, 2022 01:00 pmGot an old school style Dymo label maker for all of these peanut butter and trail mix tubs of parts, bolts, tubes of chemicals, electrical bits, dremel bits, drill attachments, etc, etc. Electrical panel can have the professionally done embossed plastic labels replaced with Dyno embossed plastic labels since most of those go to things that are no longer there and new, different things are going in.
Adding to the list of birds spotted is puffins! I saw puffins! They're super cute. And there's a pair of swans. I think I've seen them cruise by but they maybe settled a bit further down. Maybe there will be some baby swans. Geese at least get along with other geese for the most part. Swans, not even. I'd add to the bird site thread but at this point I feel like it's pics or GTFO so I need to manage pics.
Depth sounder is go. Watching the bottom jump from 17 ft to 3.3ft (I can drag a *little* and be ok) is pretty crazy. And of course, the actual channel is deep as heck, which is also crazy. I decided I didn't want to see the bottom with the 2D visualizing things (how the heck do those even work?) because it would be gratuitous but now I'm vaguely curious about some of the "bumps". This is really a matter of not wanting to know about wrecks vs wanting to know about the wrecks.
Still trying to do too many things at once. Need to figure out dental. Only caught up on work a bit. I don't think most people realize how close to being fired at any second bottom tier programmers are and I've been on the edge of that way too much. Need to do at least some light resume brushup and try to make it more positive. came out of Christmas in a panic because I really hadn't caught up on work tasks and coursework went through Christmas so only got to really demonstrate solid progress after and then I've done only just demonstrating a chunk of progress. But I also have barely socialized with human beings in ages, have barely worked on anything creative in ages, have other things like dental I need to figure out. There was a relief to doing some stop gap, then some panic of all of the other things I need to do, a huge emotional effort to force myself to work on other things and break out of paralysis, then flopping being doing the maybe not most important thing, work, and paralysis. Sometimes I think about how other bottom-tier programmers don't have SOs or the relationship is completely remote. Happy Valentines day!
