Up to 2 years, apparently. It was a huge shock to me too; I’m still coming to grips with it? Honestly, I didn’t want to take it but my boss strongly urged me to talk to the company doc and here we are.

I’m still working, just reduced hours.

American in the Netherlands: Woke up at 9 without my alarm, had coffee and a joint. No work today because I got put on burnout leave.

12: Had lunch, scheduled some appointments.
2pm: rode to supermarket and then the beach to have some champagne, joints, and make some music on my portable groovebox. I’ll be here till sunset.

Might stop at my local pub for a beer and dinner afterwards.

No friends because NL is lonely as hell((

But yes, life is much better in Europe, even in the Netherlands ( I just personally don’t really care for it)

Arrested development should come back as well, we can just collectively decide that the Netflix seasons don’t exist.

I did not expect to be living in the Zoids universe, but here we are.

Not sure what camera you’re shooting on, but if blurry photos are an issue I would suggest to increase the shutter speed as fast as possible. You might need to increase iso to compensate. If your camera has a shutter priority mode, try that and set the speed to something like 1/500 or faster.

Also keep the camera close to your body, tuck in your elbows. You can also use your environment, like leaning on a tree or wall. I’m often bracing against things if I need a bit more steadyness, esp in low light.
