Observation

[403]

Normally, I use projects and experiments as a pressure valve. You'll quite often see me start a new project or revive an old one at the height of stress, because I find that I need to do something unrelated to whatever is causing the stress, right now. (Speaking of which, there are a few follow-up posts about prior projects that I've been meaning to write..) But with class, wedding arrangements*, and playing catch up from being sick/recovery, my available time to de-stress is being squeezed from all directions. Usually, this kind of situation does not end well.


* For anyone I haven't yet mentioned it to, the wonderful zeightyfiv and I will be getting married in early to mid-January. Preparing for this gives me great understanding of why people might decide to elope.
