I understand usability and human computer interaction in general, the human part being key, but to get a masters in HCI I would need to quit working and I must work. I do not know how people combine full time work with evening classes. Probably because I need so much sleep. Most people do well on much fewer hours of sleep. And it is not drugs. Well, Lithium is a tiny bit sedating. But no, it is just something that has happened to me with age. Need my sleep.

So a monkey could do your work? This is how I feel.

With unemployed law school graduates, most do not have industry experience and I would have ten years, including in something as hot as data privacy (a perfect job prior to the suicide attempt). So, some positives on my side as well.

Complained to G about it yesterday and he thinks the job occupies too much room in my life hence I pay so much attention. If I add a diverse range of activities from reading books to volunteering, I would feel more fulfilled.

Complained to pdoc and he suggested online writing in turn, where people take turns writing the plot of a story. I have never heard of it.

I am just so mad at myself because the suicide attempt exactly four years ago and themedical leave that followed ended a perfect career and data privacy was something I was passionate about.
