i'm not really much for journaling but sometimes i do feel like writing down things i'm thinking about. it seems almost gauche to go into anything particularly deep and personal straight away, that's not really what i'm trying to do. primarily because i'm not in that kind of mood right now.
i spent a little time today taking notes on addressable LEDs so i can stop looking things up every time i need to check on power draw. playing with entire strips of them is clearly overwhelming to me — i haven't so much as lit them once since i got them, including the one i got years ago — so i'm going to clip off a strip of five so i can keep my scope contained.
i believe that should be my theme for the year. contain my scope, move forward incrementally, because whatever i've been trying to do is keeping me stagnant. presuming i can avoid being thrown into a camp by the trump administration for being anti-christian. you know they mean "anyone we don't like," right? like queers?
well, i'll get better at these. i don't need them to be perfect, i just need to do them.
