Disappearing into the woods.

Counting my vast collection of hundred dollar bills

Reading. Specifically, the dozens of saved posts in my RSS reader. I usually read these during a power outage but haven't had one in weeks.

Learning things I can actually use. I learned a lot of stuff that I can't do anything about and I feel a sense of crushing hopelessness day by day, and it increases the more I know. But I don't regret it. I regret all the times I was depressed and did nothing, not even learn about the things I could do, and feeling like I lost opportunities to do something meaningful.

Not staring at screens. There's so much more I could be doing. Things that I actually enjoy doing but I don't do any of it. I just sit inside watching videos of other people doing those things.

Life outside of work. I'd love more time to spend with my wife and dog. Time to watch movies, play video games, hike, read, camp. Hell if I didn't have to work so much I might actually do some strength training.

Boning.

Hanging out and talking with grandma. I miss you more than ever, oma.

There's probably a little switch near the fuses that lets you have a power outage when you want.

Taking pictures and video.

Which is kind of funny since I do that a lot. But there's a lot that I wished I had more records and memories of. And I wished they were in a better order.

But also because it's something I really like doing and transforms even boring walk routes into hunts for interesting angles or objects.

I'll take getting backed up on reading v a power outage. 😁

Spend more time studying, both past and present.

And less time wasted on socializing with self-important jerks.
