Journal Entry, May 1 2023

        Things have been going better lately. The panic
attacks have slowed down, and with the medication my doctor
has been giving me I'm able to go to my pharmacy and other
places without having a total 
breakdown en route. It's gotten to the point that I
actually voluntarily did some shopping while I was
downtown, which is something I absolutely would not have
done before. There's a new dollar store near 
my doctor's office and so I wanted to check it out. Fifty
cent chocolate bars?! In this economy?! You're damn right I
loaded up!
        Also, I've just discovered that nano has a "justify
paragraph" command that, hopefully, is correctly formatting
this text file for display. I've been going back and forth
between manually wrapping 
lines every 80 characters or so, or just letting the line
go on and letting the browser do the wrapping. Not sure
what ends up looking better across the various display
types people might be using.
        It's hard to believe it's already May. Time flies!
This past weekend I virtually attended the Open Hardware
Summit, which was a lot of fun. Open source hardware is
really starting to take off, and the number of people from
academia that participated

(... apparently I just published this without finishing
that sentence?)
