Am I seriously going to have to switch bands AGAIN

I had to switch out of West Jordan Concert Band because I wasn't driving 45-55 minutes in extreme traffic to get all the way to Copper Hills.  Now my current band, the Lehi Silver Band, is switching to Tuesday nights. That's when I have writing group, and writing always comes first. I'll get published within 3 years max, come hell or high water.  So now I either need to switch bands or take a summer hiatus. I guess the middle ground is taking lessons over the summer instead.  Even so, man I am sick of switching.

In addition to Research Engineering, this: Is exactly what I want to do, if I don't decide to bridge next into cybersecurity or embedded. I would just work here and never leave until my writing took off. Or even just not leave even when it does.  Fully remote and at the intersection of tech, math, code, physics, and art. Also, I use Adobe's software on a daily basis.  If by a miracle I got an interview, well -- I'd be studying out the wazoo for it.

Even workouts. Basically all the time I spend working on my goals outside of work.  48 hours and 50 minutes this week. Holy crap I'm tired. And with that, I'm going to get ready for bed. 

dear ChatGPT

if you call my plans and goals "ambitious" one more time I swear --  the end

Discord Nitro apparently only allows you to join 200 servers

I thought it was 500 :/  Yes I have 9K unread messages. No I am not going to leave any of my servers. I had to leave a few closed ones, but that's it.  This is BS. I might have to make a sock now.  I had a really good handle on my time tonight, but I lost 45 minutes "coding" -- was actually just messing with this when I was supposed to be coding. Sometimes ADHD screws you up like that.
