Hey dudes, late pastebin. Not a tremendous amount going on. I had a nice pick me up realization on Sunday - I'm about 1.5 belt loops thinner than I was when I started this job which was really needed b/c I am getting absolutely tired of this diet and hauling my ass  to and from work on my bicycle every single day. I last drank caffeine on Thursday and I don't plan to stop, every time I've done this has just shown me that this is something that needs to actually be permanent and not something I can have even an occasional cheat day on, so I'll need to find something new to drink w/ pizza, which whomps. Anyway due to that I've been extremely irritable, so I want to say sry if people have noticed or been on the brunt of that (specifically overwatch dudes + people watching stream).

I am getting majorly burned out from work and even though taking a personal day on Friday helped a lot, it was only a bandaid. I'm not rly sure if this is just b/c I'm feeling deflated and less optimistic due to irl stuff right now or what but I am deteriorating and what feels like fast, so I think I'm going to seriously broach the subject of part-time since I can take the pay cut for the time being w/ my situation. Right now I'm roughly 8:00--8:20 to 5:00-5:15 w/ increasingly frequent "oh just stay a bit late to finish this thing"days. Idk I'm a big introvert who needs a lot of alone/personal time to recharge and I just don't get the time to do that + pursue hobbies w/ this schedule and it's causing me to lose it a bit.

Played Overwatch all weekend. Hate to be a hater bot since I was genuinely looking forward to playing a game w/ speedrun buds that didn't require owning a Wii U, but I just could not like it (might be due to faulty expectations on my end but that doesn't really change the point tbh). idk I could see myself buying it some day though since a lot of the qualms I had were things that probably could improve just by more variation added to the game (which will happen w/ full release and continued support) and easy and predictable design tweaks. After the beta tho not a prepurchase for the time being; there really wasn't much reason to prepurchase this one anyway AFAIK so I'm not missing out on anything.
