Feb. 18th, 2026 12:33 pmlil' funny my very real 2 year plan is 'peace out (of so many things) and literally become a bog hag hermit'
i've been slightly joking about going through a midlife crisis but uh, this is suspiciously resembling the 'buy a boat and peace out to the middle of the gaddamn pacific ocean' stereotype some engineers have.... :D;;;;
that said i do think this is going to -oddly- be a lot better for mental health since it's actually a bigger/more varied space than where i'm holed up currently (and i've been on a trending positive upswing of self-improvement even here over the last five years; think the key really is discipline in tackling areas of life where one's unhappy and trimming out the deadweight).
it's also interesting to reflect how there's always been a major life change about every 5 years for me; high school, college, the pre-covid first five years of work, the current stint.
lord, i'm ready for the next one. it's going to be busy for a while.
