Feelings

I maintain a diary of my feelings using Daylio which I publish to this site daily. I wrote a bit about it on my blog, if you are interested in how and why.

I felt good

🏚 🧑‍🍳 🍜 🌿 📚
  • Work got a lot better after I vented for a bit with my therapist + caught up with Edipo. I gotta remember to give people grace and remember what success can look like.
  • Was able to get in the zone for a bit work wise, which was nice.
  • Made pasta e cici with a bunch of veggies and homemade chickpea that was very tasty.

I felt rad

🥩 👨‍💻 🌞 💼
  • My talk went so well, I killed! I started the talk with everyone sharing their salaries and ended sticking my points somewhat.
  • It was awesome to see people I haven’t seen in 3-5 years! I need to convert them to friends
  • Rachel is pregnant for realz now. I’m gonna be a daddy! Baby Methuselah!
  • Work went well, we moved desks, things got done, gotta stay supportive of everyone.

I felt good

🧑‍🍳 🌿 👨‍💻 🌞
  • Spent all day finishing my talk. I have the slides where I want, just need to figure out a snappy conclusion. Like literally 2-3 lines. It’ll come to me tomorrow
  • Rachel and I had a little dust up because I was a little too roasty. I need to take a beat and remember that I love her and she’s soft before saying any old thing.

I felt meh

🌿 💼
  • Ugh Louie is leaving. Gonna be interesting to see how things shape up here. Not thinking about leaving as I think we can turn this around.

I felt awful

📚 🌞 💼
  • Work went pretty okay, the table tennis needs to stop tho
  • Absolutely lost it when I found out half the reason I’m going to Chicago won’t be there 🤬 It absolutely broke me and I cried a bunch

I felt meh

🏚 🥩 🧑‍🍳 🍜 📚
  • You know, for being very sick, I did a lot today. Got a lot of work done, had a good therapy session, cooked dinner AND watered the plants! Only downside was feeling woozy during most of it.

I felt rad

🥩 🧑‍🍳 🍜 📚 💆‍♂️ 🌞
  • Woke up a lil hungover / tried (didn’t get home until 1am, only had two drinks tho)
  • Walked around after my haircut and thought about the lessons of this summer. Discussed them with Rachel (we’re taking some Ls, need to communicate better)
  • Cooked some giant Lima beans for a bean salad tomorrow. So big, so creamy!

I felt rad

🥩 📺 🧑‍🍳 🍜 💆‍♂️ 🛒 🏃‍♂️
  • Woke up early for a great gym session before watching college football all day. We are so back!
  • Made chicken burgers that were topped with my homemade shishito/jalapeño/grape hot sauce. So good!

I felt good

🧑‍🍳 👯‍♂️ 🕹 🌿 📚 🏃‍♂️ 💼
  • Work went pretty smoothly, so close to moving on to the next thing!
  • Played games with Adam. I sorta understand Death Stranding now
  • Made some a mix between a dal and a scampi. It was just okay.

I felt meh

🥩 📚 🌞 💼
  • Summited the mountain of work that had me down yesterday today. “It’s so over” always leads to “We’re so back”
  • Worked later than I should have tho. Gotta balance leaving in time as doing a little more later

I felt good

🥩 👯‍♂️ 💼
  • Brooklyn Web Workers #1: Talked to people I haven’t seen in 5 years and just felt the vibes of the world before the pandemic. I’m speaking at the next one and I’m gonna crush
  • Real low point at work where I had a massive unrevertable bug that I was up against the gun of leaving on. Figured it out but I really didn’t handle it well. I need to do breathing before it gets bad
  • Fascism is pretty bad out there, y’all.

I felt meh

🏚 🧑‍🍳 🍜
  • Therapy was good. We need to make a chores list/handbook so Rachel and I are on the same page.
  • Woke up a lil late after a night with friends.
  • Was able to sorta hit flow state. I need that more.
  • Made a salad and a watermelon + mint sorbet. Nice to not have to cook anything but use the CSA.

I felt rad

🥩 🎶 🍜 🌞 💼
  • I got to see Snowing tonight, a top 3 fave emo band for me! It lived up to the billing, in my mind (they were an opener).
  • Work has been hella fun. I landed at a good spot that I’ll post on Monday.
  • Gotta wake up at 5am tomorrow to get upstate for Passover 😭

I felt rad

🧑‍🍳 👯‍♂️ 📚 💆‍♂️ 🌞
  • Over the past two weeks, I have just unwound and been a house husband, cooking and going on walks and just chilling.
  • One day, I went to the MoMA and then a creative coding meetup where I vibecoded an approximation of an artist’s process that I saw.
  • Another day, I went to a Mets bar for the season opener and then went to another bar for a Hell Gate meetup.
  • Saturday, Rachel and I went to a walking and talk meetup and maybe made a new friend or two!
  • And today, I made a delicious bean and shrimp soup that took a while but turned out fantastic. I’ll need to keep in mind that black beans take a bit longer to cook.

I felt rad

🧑‍🍳 👯‍♂️ 🕹 🍜 🌿 📚 💆‍♂️ 👨‍💻 🌞
  • Accepted a job offer!
  • Early morning walk with Stav was fun!
  • Caught up with Alex, seems like he’s enjoying being a dad!

🥩 👯‍♂️ 🍜 🏛 📚 💆‍♂️ 🌞
  • Another wonderful day with Jonathan in the city! We went to the Museum of the Moving Image, shot some pool, and had a big dim sum dinner with all our friends.
  • Somehow, we caught the last train from Manhattan to Astoria for the day 🙌

I felt rad

🎭 👯‍♂️ 🍜 🌿 💆‍♂️ 🌞
  • That job I was sad about missing out on Saturday? I got an offer from it!
  • Jonathan has been visiting and we have done so much fun stuff. Saw Hadestown tonight!

I felt bad

🥩 🍜 💆‍♂️ 👨‍💻
  • I was all depressed because of probably missing out on some decent enough jobs I interviewed for. It’s the first failed final rounds that break your heart. I just bed rotted and moped around.
  • Stayed up late working on my lil AI meal planning app. We’re getting closer, spent a bit of time fighting the library, but I’m getting close now.

I felt good

🏚 🍜 🌿 📚 👨‍💻
  • Had some intro interviews that I think went okay. I’m hoping that they go somewhere, but who knows.
  • The stock market and the general world is much more turbulent than it needs to be.
  • Rachel made a delicious dinner of steamed sweet potato and tuna steak.

I felt good

🥩 🍜 👨‍💻 🏃‍♂️
  • Haven’t journaled for a sec. The big news is that I left my job last week to find something else. I liked working with the team, but we were going through a pivot and I desperately need to be back in person, so this timing really works best for everyone.
  • The job search is going just okay. I thought I would take it easy, but I checked a button in LinkedIn and ALL the recruiters reached out at once. I already have a final round somewhere, but I’m stying grounded and I sorta expect it to take bit to get a final offer.
  • I’m using this time to do some serious studying and upskilling. Reading a lot more about LLMs. Going to meetups again.

I felt meh

🏚 🥩 🧑‍🍳
  • Very dramatic day at work. Probably gonna get laid off on Monday. Actually kinda happy about it. Market is slightly improving and I have runway.
  • Made buldak chicken with leftover rotisserie chicken. Big hit, happy that I have found a use for rotisserie chicken this week.

I felt good

🥩 👯‍♂️ 🍜 🌞 💼
  • Went and worked solo in a WeWork. Nothing more lonely than seeing other teams doing things
  • Went to a really fun React meetup. I need to get out more!

I felt good

🏚 🥩 🎶 👯‍♂️ 📚 🏃‍♂️
  • Went to a concert with Adam, nice to see him and I very much still miss Brooklyn.
  • Woke up feeling free. I’m 40% certain I’m going to make a big move on Friday and the finality of it is relaxing and exciting.
  • Finished Three Body Problem. I don’t usually read sci-fi, but this was excellent and just the right amount of hard science.

I felt meh

🏚 🍿 🌿 📚
  • Valentine’s Day! Made tomato soup and watched The Proposal.
  • Work went okay, was able to focus a bit.

I felt bad

🏚 🌿 📚
  • It’s been a rough 24 hours. I got very frustrated at work. Just unacceptable level of anger on my part. I need to make a change.
  • I have so many mental blocks that it hurts. I need to tear them down so I can deal with reality in a levelheaded way. I cannot get in a time machine and go back to what was, I need to be present and deal with what is. I need to be excited about what is.
  • I did make a nice farro risotto, so that was nice.

I felt good

🏚 🥩 🍜 📚
  • Went to a cooking class dinner about fermentation. Very delicious, we loved the beets and black rice gochujang risotto. Left with some ideas.
  • Stopped by Little Island before dinner. Wry beautiful with the layer and untouched snow at dusk.
  • Work went better, I’m chilling out a bit. But it could all still go a little wacky tomorrow.

I felt meh

🏚 🧑‍🍳 🍜 🌿 📚 👨‍💻
  • Today was infinitely better than yesterday. For one, I made chilaquiles for dinner. But also, I didn’t have any bouts of crippling anxiety, just generalized anxiety.
  • Wrapped up a lil site update and made a move or two to make my AI bot better.
  • I need to leave the apartment tomorrow, for sure!

I felt awful

🏚 🌿 📚 👨‍💻
  • Just an all around awful day. I was excited to work, but that notion was dampened about 20 minutes into my first call.
  • First call with my new therapist, I think we will work out just fine.
  • Rachel was in Albany, so the apartment was quiet.

  • In between existential dread about *gestures around*, I made a pesto that turned out perfect.
  • Stayed up very late on Friday playing around with AI stuff. I’m getting the hang of it, I think.

  • Medication ad just ment has me a little loopy, but not in a bad way

  • Haven’t journaled in like a year and felt like time to come back.
  • It’s bad, but at least there is some finality in knowing that it’s bad that makes me feel more focused.
  • Updates from the year are like “marriage is a thing you have to garden” and “it’s time for new things, as the old things that gave me life don’t anymore”
  • New job has been fun but it’s been hard when it’s in a valley to care. I feel more annoyed at work, but it’s because I personally. care more than the last few spots. I think it’s because I feel I need it to work out.
  • I think I’m going to replace my Twitter consumption with reading books.

  • First day of Advent of Code was easy and fun
  • Gym was fun, read a book at a bar, and got a slick hair cut.

  • Had an improv class that was super fun. It was nice to be in the moment.
  • Too my time making dinner. Went to Eatly to pick up orzo and guanciale for an orzo carbonara, which was prepared as Rachel got home and we had a lil dinner together.

  • Funemployment, Day 2
  • Struggled with split squats at the gym. I need forgive myself more easily when I’m learning new gym things.
  • Spent the day in Brooklyn. Walked the length of Prospect Park, got lunch at Ras Plant Based, went to Judaica store, saw the Jay Z exhibit at the Brooklyn library, read for a few hours and then played chess late into the night with Kory. All around great day!
