Nice!

I'm trying to put together a Bible study series on St. Paul. I think right now I'd prefer the neat answers of a set of equations...

I'll do that if you do my Engineering Tech class. I'm teaching the Engineering Design process.

I doubt I could handle engineering tech. Closest I came was probably first-year university physics... and after first year I went for all the biological sciences!

I'm sure you've heard the old joke about how you know which branch of science you're studying?

If it moves, it's biology.
If it smells, it's chemistry.
If it doesn't work, it's physics.

Today was surely an awful day.

Not sure if it's normal... but I find my vision gets blurry when I'm overstressed. Like my eyes kind of just go cross eyed when I'm in a depressive state.

Unbelievable car troubles... it's not even about the money (might be expensive) but the fact that it's taking so long to even get diagnosed and may take even longer to get fixed (due to the supply chain issues).

You have not had it long, how are you getting around now?

What am I thiking? Thirty more minutes and I am off work.
Ever notice when you are at work you can think of a million things to do otherwise, but the minute you are disabled or retire, trust me, you can't think of a thing to do that isn't repetitious and becoming tedious.

So relieved that my car problems are (hopefully) over with.

Makes me appreciate driving in a modern car. The bill wasn't as expensive as I was planning either.

This week has been especially stressful for me.. but now I have the weekend to try to unwind.

I do find it sad... when some women have such intense romantic feelings for me... and I can't like muster... up anything in return.

Like I'm incapable of feeling love for other people. I hate being single, but it's not for a lack of options... it's just my mind isn't able to ever connect with anyone in any meaningful way.

I can only feel love in the context of (consensual) sadism... but like... that just feels so shallow.

I guess it could be worse. I do wish there was a proper diagnosis for me. Those who can only feel romance in the context of suffering. For most it's just some "quirk"... to spice up a marriage that's getting dull or whatever. For me... it's all I ever had. I wish I was capable of more. I don't even have label for this. Most people I tell my problem too... don't even believe me. It's not even a conservative issue... most liberals don't either.

Most other romantic sadists I've met... seem to be able to feel other types of love too. Something... that I don't think I have yet properly comprehended.

Nature is cruel.

Today is my sister's 75th birthday.

This is her holding me.

I'm listening to the latest episode of a favourite podcast and procrastinating about the kiddo's bedtime routine. At least we're on school holidays for a couple of weeks now...

Been like half a year of photo bucket warning me that I'm going to lose my photos soon if I don't active my account or whatever. So annoying. I remember it being a decent website back in the day before it fell apart.

Don't really care if my stupid selfies and artwork from my highschool days vanish, lol.
