"I can't remember it, so it must have been good"
today at work was exhausting. I don't know if it was because I task switched so much, or maybe I have been overworking myself. it doesn't matter for what I am trying to say, I'm glad today is over.
when I did leave for the day (later than I should have) it was sunset, because daylight savings. seeing the lights on in my building and seeing it dark and blue outside felt so strange, and it's becoming winter so it was chilly.
I was waiting for the bus, and I just sat on a rock and closed my eyes and rocked a little. people can think I'm insane, that's ok. I am. I can still do what I want to.
I also got a dr pepper from a little self service vending place. I rarely have soda these days. it was nice.
this seems like one of the things I won't remember well, but will float back into my head every once in a while.
I'm reminded of a james acaster bit. that's the heading up there ^. "I can't
remember it so it must have been good" as a reaction to a movie rather than a
night out, and the absurdity of assuming it was good. I still think I should
give memories that don't stay in my head the benefit of the doubt.
web design is my passion
damn, making a stupid little html and css page with just nothing going on can be fun. it reminds me of when my father first introduced me to wordpress, and I got obsessed by the fact I could do my very own html as a blog post.
my classic thing was to have <i>ital</i> and <b>bold</b> and <i><b>both of them
combined</b></i> and think about the right way to interleave the <i> and <b> tags.
there is something beautiful between the unstyled academic websites HTML was made for and the sticky feeling fancy scrolling people use when they want to look professional now.
