Having a pretty good day today. Think we needed a break and to have some time to not worry about things, so this is good. It's nice to destress a bit even if we still have to help a friend through a tricky phone call on Monday and keep them going until then. Oh well, business as usual, might as well enjoy the weekend break!

Still chipping away at making a bookmarks directory webpage for our qutebrowser homepage, coming along nicely. I think it'll be pretty useful even for Firefox- makes it super easy to find our most important bookmarks quickly. It's sorted by topic/category, and color-coded within that so it's very quick to find a specific link (a problem we've had with the bookmarks bar- it gets muddled). It even has a navigation section so we can jump to different topics more quickly, which is a huge time-saver if we're only using the keyboard. Convenience is nice! May also see about adding a search bar for finding specific links within it since I know that's possible and it would save searching manually, but we'll see if that's needed.

Happy to say that our computer is still up and running after the fix- hasn't crashed again yet, knock on wood. Seems like the problem is solved! Longest uptime we've had in a bit and no problems as of yet.

Had a rough time sleeping last night, sort of stressed out and it's getting to be a sleep issue again. Tired enough today that hopefully we can get to bed early and fix our godawful sleep "schedule." Anyone else totally lose normal sleeping hours in 2020 and still don't have them back?

I feel like there's something I'm supposed to be doing or thinking about. It'll probably hit me at 3 AM or something, haha. It's always late at night that we remember!

Oh- botany's look button gave me a fun thing to do. Thinking of the words that rhyme with fern. Burn, learn, tern, yearn, adjourn, concern, and so on. Fun creative exercise.
