nonethefewer- Josh is... he is an inspiration today, because he encouraged me to breathe and to just be. In the face of interview-anx. That was exactly what I needed this morning, especially given that fuck-me dream I had (of being late). He was so calm and luck-wishing and... yeah. Hi! It's like one part NRE haze and three or four parts he's amazing.
- I has a job! It's basic-level tech support, with additional projects on the side. I impressed him with things like describing a Windows search tool that wasn't the Windows search tool, and that used regular expressions. Also by half-designing a query in my head about transferring invoices from MySQL to SQL Server. When he started using my name in hypotheticals, I knew I was in. Yee!
- I hung out with my dad today. We bitched about inadequate documentation, we bonded over anx of starting a new role-playing game, and he sold me on reading this Harry Turtledove series, about the Civil War in the US. Heh.
- I walked approximately 1.6 miles barefoot today. I have blisters, but I'm happy, so whatever.
- I am so glad to be myself again.
