    I released my very first song on Apple Music and the other major music streaming platforms. It’s live on Apple Music rn. I don’t care if it is never found or listened to. It’s just so cool knowing that anyone could listen to it. I’ve another track lined up for release and have music videos for both. This is a dream of mine, and I actually followed through on something!

    I’ve accepted a job offer. It’s a big paycut, and finances are going to be very very very tight for a year or two. I’m going to have to make lifestyle changes, but it is probably time to grow up and do that really.

    I’m nervous about handing in my notice. The person I’ll have to hand in the notice to is a fucking nightmare. She screamed in the face of a previous quitter, and made everybody rearrange the office seating so that people quitting couldn’t sit near each other. She’s going to be a pain in the arse for months.

    But, positive. Feel like I’m making actual choices that I care about for once!

    I’ve just had bacon, eggs, baked beans, and hash browns for lunch so it’s going pretty well right now.

    I got an award!

    I went winter camping with a scout troop a few weekends ago. Some of the kids slept out in snow shelters to complete their winter survival training. I built my own shelter and slept out with them just to see if I could handle the cold. I’m proud to say that I survived in comfort.

    When the kids were awarded their winter camping patches the scoutmaster also awarded me an honorary patch. The best part was my son’s reaction: he had a big smile on his face and clapped hard for me when I accepted the patch.

    I’m just getting over a cold. It’s the fifth time I’ve been sick since July.

    Just started job hunting again. I failed my first interview on Monday. It was all bad. I had audio/video issues. I brought the wrong tools for the job. None of the stuff I prepared for was tested. I accidentally closed the browser, so the interviewer probably thinks I was trying to cheat. At some point, my brain got stuck on “OMG. You’re failing!” and I couldn’t think about the interview question.

    Oh well. On to the next one.

    Well, it seems to be a technology fail week.

    I emailed a software developer to tell them about a pretty significant bug. After some back and forth they decided it is my computer (it isn’t) and told me to “go to Geek Squad.” Does Geek Squad even exist anymore?

    And now, I just called “tech support” because I couldn’t get a (different and unrelated) video conferencing software to work. They had never heard of Linux, didn’t know what a log is, didn’t know what the cloud is, didn’t know what a URL is…🤨

    I’m not sure if I am on candid camera or in a parllel universe but it’s quite frustrating and I still can’t use either one.
