Spent around 16 hours yesterday on my first #Blazor project. Feels so weird that in that whole time I didn't have to write any JS at all. I think I'm in love.

From Mark Manson, author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck
When I have nothing going on, I get angry at myself for being so useless. And then when I'm drowning under responsibilities, I get angry at myself for doing too much. I just can't win.

On the 2nd week of school, the 8yo's math book's cover is completed torn off, the 4yo's water bottle is broken, stationery is missing, and various items are fraying, not the least of which is my patience 🙄😐 daddy loves you, kids!
Fun discussion with my mother this morning: - Mum: we should use honey instead of sugar. - Me: They're all just sugar. - Mum: No, honey is natural. Not animal sugar. Ah yes, sugarcane, that famous member of the animal kingdom. I think you meant to say "processed" 🤔😂

Hi Twitter! Now to think of something clever to say...ah fuck it. I give up. This is harder than I thought it would be. I'll be back when I have something. Stay tuned!
