welcome to the weekly how’s your week going thread

this thread is a pretty straightforward and relaxed one for giving updates on how your week is going and chat like that. nothing special

on my front: last week was total chaos, so hoping for things to calm down this week because it is completely fucking up my groove; unfortunately reddit is not making that easy. this is also not ideally timed for my emotional state. anyways, read book 20 for the year (America City by Chris Beckett). on book 21. maybe i’ll marathon through a bunch of these in between keeping the site from being on fire

    Adding that to my TBR. I got back into reading 2 years ago, it’s helped my mental health so much by replacing social media. Hope your week calms down＼(- )

    I’m doing pretty great. Spent all weekend volunteering at pride events and meeting lots of amazing people. Been having fun hanging around beehaw too so that’s been a positive as well 😊

      So far Beehaw seems like a chill place to chat, I’m interested to see how things go in the next few weeks!

    Honestly, finding this place has been the highlight of my month! This week has been crazy busy at work. About 4 different projects all started going on at once on top of my normal work load and it’s been a bit draining. But, i put in for a couple vacation days a month ago and am going to be spending it at a friend’s doing lán parties and just general hanging out.

    I hope all y’all’s is going well! Or will soon be!

    I’ve had great fun working through Crafting Interpreters (in Haskell and Zig, which were both new to me), and discovering a lot of new music (underscores, ethel cain, xiu xiu and more). Other than that, life’s been rough, but I’m lucky to have quite a bit of free time recently at least.

    Woke up at 3am and couldn’t fall back asleep, but it’s a freaking GOOD day, got some caffeine, not a lot of meetings at work today, and the Lemmy community grows, I’m loving it here

    After a couple of months doing photosynthesis, my ADHD medication finally decided to allow me to study this morning. But no more than 90 minutes. Now I’m again in my endless scrolling and doing nothing productive.

    Besides that, I’m trying to be more active in kbin.social / lemmy instances to create more content through comments or post and engage, knowing the inevitable doom from Reddit (although I have an user on sopuli since last year).

    Think I’ll have to share in calling this week total chaos as the last few days I’ve been moving across the country to pursue an internship at NASA. It’ll be my first week at work there so here’s hoping it goes well. I also have a class I’m currently taking with an exam tomorrow. Very stressful indeed.
