I am absurdly tired. Not sleepy, but that sort of weariness that makes it hard to concentrate or care or whatever

Dear lizards that control space-time: I'm still in the wrong timeline. I'm from one of the "Bearenstein" ones. Maybe also a non-Trump one?

Interestingly, my last relationship that ended was really good, but I don't ever remember her giving me any music to listen to.

(And one of my current partners spent a lot of time listening to country music, so, um...no.)

Listening to a song that I got from my ex.

Y'know, if you get at least a few good songs out of a relationship, it wasn't a complete failure. Maybe the person was trash, but good music is still good.

Just went to go check how hot is is/is going to be. Down to 5 tonight? And up to 35 on Sunday? YEEE

Also I don't want to be at work, I want to go ride my bike and then eat ice cream and bbq some stuff then eat more ice cream.

I have received word that I have a shipment coming as a present, and I think it might be a pen I was really wanting, but even if it's just ink and paper I'm 1000% stoked.

oh no i still have to ride my bike up a hill to get home

I've learned my lesson: do not do double Friday practice on sprint weeks. I am one giant cramping mess.

(I say that I've learned my lesson, but the reality is that I'm not terribly clever and I will be miserable again in a few weeks.)

Today I told the lane next to me, "all y'all are a bunch of splashy motherfuckers" because I was getting swamped any time any of them came past. I swallowed a lot of pool water today.

So, I found my bug.

m_SearchDistance = m_SearchDistance;

This does not generate a compiler warning, but it WILL fuck up your pathfinding algorithms.

Feature working

*small bugfixes*

Feature hopelessly broken and I want to die

Whoops, mild existential crisis.

Sitting at a desk in a row of desks, typing and writing code, trying not to feel like a factory-worker-cog-in-a-machine.

I wonder how common that feeling is among programmers.

I HATE how you can ask the compiler to please not optimise the file so you can see the values of the variables, but it optimises them away anyway. STOP IT. I'M DEBUGGING HERE.

Also I want a new iPad soon. I've been planning to buy one for a while and even sold my iPad 3 a couple months ago, but I still have a few pennies to save yet. The iOS 11 changes for iPads are pretty amazing.

Yesss

I have a hierarchical menu system to launch certain operations in emacs, and I've gotten to a muscle memory point for some of them.

M-m n g n n

Gets a new build from the NAS, does not get a console version, doesn't force sync code.

If you have a lilac tree in my neighbourhood

This is the sort of shit you have to put up with when I'm walking anywhere.

Okay, I spent 11 hours asleep last night, so I guess I was justified in feeling like I was too tired to go to swim practice.
