The replacement for my NIH job is slow going. I guess that's fine by me, I still need to work my ass off. Some new initiatives are going on in both jobs and they're eating so much of my time and probably doing unhealthy things with my health but at least I'm still on track with getting work done.

I think I have maybe two months before I'm fully excised from my role if they want the transition to go as safely as possible. I debate if they're really going to do it that cleanly though.

Bright side to it: I'll have free time again. Given how much work I've been putting into the job these past few weeks, I don't know if I can really call it worth having for 50k either, so no skin off my back.

Did buy a shitload of presents for people though, but I'm DONE.

I also filled a card with photos, so put it into CaptureOne to upload.

Photos this time are a potpourri from Philly, the farm we get milk from, Allentown, The Verazano in Staten Island, and the Bronx Zoo (of course). I'll have some ready in... I guess never at the rate this work keeps coming in, hah. Ugh.

To be honest even writing this post feels like I am doing something I am not really fond of; not because of you beautiful people of course, but more because I've been sitting on my ass staring at a computer for everyday for a good 8-13 hours a day including weekends.

I know I'm not the only one though; got a lot of packages on holdup and even some pickup items that are slower going than usual which I'm assuming is because they're backlogged with orders.

Eventually I need to think about if I want to have a second job again. For now I guess it's more of a maybe as I try to balance how much I want a fucking house versus taking a break. I still can't believe I was able to save up as much as I did sometimes but it felt like a breakneck quest to make sure I could get a proper deposit while living an enjoyable life and even now I'm not sure if it's that much of one.

In the meantime, I will say I'm getting more bang for my buck out of Capture One.

I'd like to say more stuff but honestly just typing this is tiring me more and more. Also I think IBS gave me anemia. Will post again, but if I don't post soon: hope you all have a pleasant Christmas ahead of you.
