Not much to say this week, but I’ve decided to start pursuing certificates for some of my skills with a computer. My plan is to block off a couple or three hours Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday and leave writing for my downtime (usually Friday and part of Saturday and Sunday) for the near future. So far, I have to say that Codecademy is actually working out better than the college courses did, not to mention that it’s leagues cheaper and easier than sitting in a classroom with a teacher who may or may not be an objectively-bad match for me (I’ve had some that were just flat out terrible teachers and some that, while they were excellent at their jobs, they just weren’t right for me). Anyway, that said, I went ahead and sprung for the annual billing of the Pro tier so I could get my certificates (and give myself a good refresher course, too) and have something I can go back on, should writing not work out like I’m hoping… plus, it would be a good middle-finger to some people who are still going on about my failure with college back in 2018/2019. Anyway, put simply, my writing is going to be pushed to the back (this should help with writer’s block as well) for a block of time while I focus on something else.
Keep quirky!
