Finally, I am no longer working at, as I call it, the insane asylum.
Having someone with narcissistic personality disorder
appointed as my supervisor
has come to an end.
It has been a journey.
Or, as the americans put it, a learning experience,
a very unpleasant one at that!
I researched everything I could in order to deal with the situation.
The bottomline: a narcissist cannot change.
There was only 1 option.
To remove myself from the situation.
It took a tragic event for me to make this decision.
My brother came to town due to my father having an acute stroke.
(Which is why I have not been posting.)
He was the one that suggested I once again become self-employed.
(This time without the Govt interference that dogged me the last time.)
He suggested, I sell what in the past I used to give away.
Which are game modules.
I used to create game modules for friends and family to play.
He told me,
that he has been paying money on patreon for modules,
that are nowhere near the quality I used to produce.
Apparently there's a growing market.
So that is what I will now do.
Besides,
also being the primary carer for my Dad.
I am happy with my decision, and
despite the current tragic events, and
emotional turmoil,
I am actually more relaxed and at peace than I have been in years.

2020 Onwards + Upwards
I have finally found an OS/browser combo that actually works with DA (sort of) since their "upgrades". So it's linux and a fork of firefox that finally let me use the DA site again. As long as I use the old UI I can get around. No frilly bits like inserting emoticons or art, just the basics, but at least it's something. I will just flutter on thru . . . until I have something to say.
Aussie Hopping Mouse
Yup, the Americans stole the term "Kangaroo Mouse"
so the genuine article has to be referred to as the
"Hopping Mouse"
Yesterday I was pottering about my greenhouse
and out of the corner of my eye
I noticed something
like speedy gonzales
bouncing from pot to pot.
Probably not a
kultarr
or an Australian Hopping Mouse,
since most of them are extinct,
or on the edge of extinction,
and I don't live in a true desert,
although with the drought,
it feels like it.
But it was pale, almost pinky brown,
half-mouse sized and
hopped,
very fast.
I am only about 400km from where they used to range
back when homesteading was legal
in Oz
Life is still like that in Aug 2019
Life for me lurches on from one dilemma to the next,
sometimes without a moment to blink.
My VPS provider closed without notice.
My ISP is cancelling my subsciption
because the plan is too cheap.
Their cheapest plan is now double what I currently pay.
The mobile phone provider won't give me an account
because I like to pre-pay
rather than post-pay.
The fencing contractor I hired
fell off the face of the planet
after demolishing 25% of my old fence.
And, lifes general niggles and frustrations,
like having cancer again,
continue to bug me.
My April Fools Day 2019
I woke up with a stick of cheese in my ear.

Good luck to you both, I hope things turn out of the best, even if it's not obvious at first.
