My year off is near its end
Last year was bad. Losing Julian was one of the final straws. I pretty much checked out of everything for the year. Token activity on social media, barely looked at any code, no projects for friends, charity or pay. For the most part I let my inner misanthrope win and have had very little social contact at all.
I'm finding that I don't mind it either and I suspect this will continue for a bit longer.
