noahgibbs: Me and my teddy bear at Karaoke after a day of RubyKaigi in HIroshima in 2017 (Default)

Yesterday, by rights, should have been really bad.

My motorcycle battery died, so I was in a massive rush to get home and scramble to Berkeley by 6:30.

Work still sucks. And I was late coming in.

On the way home, my car's "check engine" light came on, and I don't know what I'm going to do about repairing it while trying to get my bike dealt with.

But y'know, I just don't feel very attached to most of my day-to-day activities. It was about time to get the car serviced, I've just been lazy. The bike thing may keep my off my bike for a couple of days but that's about the worst of it. And work -- it sucks, sure, but then I care less.

I feel like sort of a weenie -- things haven't been really, really good for me for quite awhile, and things are never all that bad. I guess I'm just wishy-washy rather than melodramatic and angst-ridden. If they ever make a movie of my life, I'm seeing Kevin Spacey ala "American Beauty" as me. Or at least, as the current me. I don't know who would have played me-in-college. A young Christopher Walken, perhaps.

Eh, whatever. Back to work.

You bet'cha. The Neil Gaiman thing wasn't the end-all and be-all of my adult life, but the book was quite good. I've satisfied myself that hearing him speak doesn't show me a wealth of new and hidden meaning in what he writes :-)

He reads well, though.

And, as you point out, much slower than I do.

I'm sorry. I didn't realize that your life really does suck horribly. At least it must, if that's all you can come up with from yesterday that was good.
