I'm about to start school again after 20 years away... A bit nervous. Still, my job was slowly killing me, and I really feel like I can do this.

Also, I accomplished a nerd thing which I am proud of.

Don't leave us hanging! What was the nerd thing you did?

There's this server software called Proxmox, and this distributed storage software for it called Ceph, and I moved my first servers from running on bare metal to running in Proxmox on Ceph. Many people have done it before, but I just feel so nerdy and proud having it run that way. I had trouble re-assigning some disks from LVM to the Ceph.

Wow a real life Ceph wrangler! πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

I am doing an MBA now, the last time I studied was 13 years ago. I am finding that I am really enjoying learning a lot. In fact, I never enjoyed learning back when I was in school.

I just finished my first week of a new job where I'm not a manager for the first time in many years and it was fucking awesome.

Just went to the wet market. Bought 5 kg of rice, spices, veges and fruits. Got 10 kg of mangosteen because they're in season right now. Bought some packed rice dishes with curry and chicken as well. Overall, a nice day at my SEA hometown.

Sounds like you're going to cook something delicious. As a fellow SEA resident I love the chaos of the markets, always something new and exciting

It's about to be the first heat wave of our summer (it's been weirdly cool here) and that's making me anxious. Idk. It's a long weekend and I'm going to visit my aunt. My mother and other aunt are being rotted monsters to her because they're both psychos and I am quite prepared to clean their clocks if they don't cut it out, all because she's choosing to be buried someday in the family plot. They both deserve nothing but bad things to happen to them.
