January 2, 2026

 It's a shitty day, literally. I have a stomach flu virus and I have been using the bathroom since early this morning, Luckily, I have no pressing need to go outside and the meeting I attend on Friday nights is online, so that's a good thing.

I started doing the music file backups of the second drive. That's a smaller drive so it shouldn't take too long.

I find myself a little overwhelmed with the service work I'm doing, but I console myself by acknow;edging that one commitment will be over in April and the other one will be over in December of 2026. Then, I can go back to being just another face in a crowd, just another bozo on the bus. Maybe then I'll have more time to write.
