The morning started with my immune system apparently deciding to take an unscheduled vacation, leaving me feeling like a computer running on 10% battery. But by evening, muscle memory kicked in - laptop open, fingers on keyboard, doing what I do best: pretending I know what I'm doing while actually figuring it out.
The Plot Twist Nobody Saw Coming
So I joined a startup as a "co-founder" today. Before you get impressed, let me clarify - "co-founder" currently means "person who really hopes this completely raw idea somehow works." It's not even launched yet, so we're basically playing startup dress-up.
But here's the real kicker: they didn't want me for web development. They want me to handle marketing and business development. Me. The guy who can barely market himself on social media without experiencing physical pain from the cringe.
I'm sitting here thinking, "Am I about to crash spectacularly?" The answer is probably yes, but that's half the fun of this whole experiment.
The Numbers Don't Lie (And Neither Do Calendars)
Meanwhile, I'm staring at my ML learning plan, and the math is brutal - one full week behind schedule. My calendar is looking at me with the disappointment of a parent who just discovered their kid has been skipping school.
Two weeks to catch up, or I just accept that my timelines are more like gentle suggestions my brain makes to feel organized. The funny thing about being behind on self-imposed deadlines is realizing how arbitrary they actually are.
When Life Throws Curveballs
Something happened in my personal life today that completely derailed my mental state for a moment. Those moments when life throws you a curveball that makes you question everything and your brain just goes "system error, please restart."
Instead of falling back into old self-destructive patterns, I did something different - I opened my laptop and started working. Sometimes the best response to mental chaos is just... building something.
Weekend Plans: YappingAIs
Tomorrow's Saturday, which means my side project "YappingAIs" gets some attention. Because apparently, I'm now the type of person who works on side projects while co-founding startups while being behind on learning plans.
What could possibly go wrong?
The absurd thing about starting multiple things simultaneously is that you're essentially betting on your future self to be more organized than your current self. Historical data suggests this is a terrible bet, but here we are, placing it anyway.
Sometimes you just have to laugh at the absurdity of your own life choices and keep typing.
