Stop Working Too Hard in 2021
This is my resolution (if I actually have one). I'm going to retire from my full-time engineering work babysitting lunatics.
I just saw on Instagram a friend of my wife's this morning checking in with her IG personna/whatever and she's saying "I'm in my special space this morning. Just had my tea. Had my yoga." Meahwhile I'm fielding calls and emails on COVID-related engineering problems starting at 6am, and everything is an emergency. It's been like this all damned year for me and it's certainly effecting my health. 12-hour days if I'm not careful. So, I'm pulling the plug in 2021 on this phase of my career. Going to slow the hell down. So...who's going to join me?
At this point I have to marvel at people my age who can just sip their tea and watch the clouds drift by. Made me laugh my ass off, actually... Heading to the Gulch, baby...
