Derik Badman's Journal

Wasted time this morning trying to get node and npm installed on my Chromebook. Not much success, as usual for when I make any attempts to make doing development possible on that computer. I just can't find enough information to account for whatever is different about the linux in ChromeOs as compared to any other form of linux. It's extremely frustrating, as I'd really hoped when I bought it that I'd be able to use it at least a little for coding. And now I'm wasting time trying to setup this journal site at least preliminarily, so I can put my old site into an html archive and at least have a home page and a feed to redirect people to for the new site. Doing server work, I always feel like there are these tiny exceptions for everything, that make it take extra long to accomplish anything, even stuff I've done before. More frustration, and now it's almost noon already.

The game yesterday went ok. We had fun, but once again it feels like we get nowhere in the game. We were literally in one room the whole session. At this rate we'll never get anywhere, more frustrations. It's all making me feel pretty stressed today already. This shouldn't happen, it's Sunday, I'm not working, and I got my one day's chore (mowing the lawn) done.
