My programmers told me the transliteration engine was ready for testing today, and... it wasn't. It was terrible. 😕Just a handful of minutes of testing resulted in me discovering several glaring issues, clearly demonstrating that either the programmers didn't do any testing themselves, or they just wanted to get me something to actually finally produce … Continue reading 2022-06-25 — A Hope for Hope

I'm not really in the mood to write today. Didn't really do much. Walked the creek again with my mom and Mindy. Gathered metal to take to the scrap place to hopefully get my engine back. Put a pretty good sized dent or three in the top of my trucks bed trying to load some … Continue reading 2022-06-24 — Sliding

It was weird yesterday to purposefully choose not to write a blog entry yesterday. I sat there looking at my computer like, "I'm supposed to write an entry right now." 😶 And I just sort of... didn't, obviously, but it was so strange to just not do it. And then today, I felt the pull … Continue reading 2022-06-23 — Streak Broken

Hey folks, I wasn't going to write today, but I figured with what I've been going through and writing about, I'd probably better let you know I'm here and ok. It's been a hard day. The morning hardest of all. Already quite down as a carryover from yesterday, I sank even lower first thing this … Continue reading 2022-06-21 — Experimentation

Hey, folks. I'm tired, in pretty much every way but physically. It's been one of the lowest days of my life, as far as seeing the point of life and having a desire or reason to keep going on with it. It's been a fairly steady descent to this point, like the downward trend of … Continue reading 2022-06-20 — What’s the Point?

Not much to say today. I'm really tired. Wandered around the creek a little bit today trying to think. Tired. Gonna actually get to bed early tonight, I think. I'm contemplating crashing right now. It's just past 7:30. 🙃 Lift the World ~ stephen

Up late, up early, and lots and lots of car work today. I saw the title of yesterday's post, and it seems so long ago already. It's crazy how time is. So fast. Slow. Anyway, 1st car was one that was running rough and had a passenger window that was stuck down. The rough running … Continue reading 2022-06-18 — Thermo… nuclear meltdown

Well, the best news of the day is that the junkyard in Oklahoma gave me a full refund for the engine that I bought. I brought it back this morning after a bit of a fight trying to get it loaded into my work van. I was unsuccessful getting it into the work van, which … Continue reading 2022-06-17 — 0 for 2

Once again, I was up super super late, and then I just wake up... earlier than what you'd think my body would need with sleep. I think I went to bed around... 5? And I got up before 10, I think, and I felt fine. I swear I have the weirdest body rhythms. It's been … Continue reading 2022-06-16 — Crossing Fingers

Really rough day. Really struggling. I keep trying to move forward with the significant other area of my life after the mess of the last 12 years, but I can't. It's like it's not in my DNA to be able to move forward without answers. I trusted what I thought was right so much... and … Continue reading 2022-06-15 — Under the Piles
