Tired and My Feet Hurt

I’m feeling every bit my age and it is partly my fault for not thinking to bring my afternoon dose of Gabapentin. It was poor planning because I worked a standing shift and I am a Type 2 Diabetic. Well at least I’m on the bus home. Sadly, I have not heard from Securitas yet. I was really hoping to hear from them and pick up a new security job as the company I work for now is dead end. I want to be done with them. The sooner the better.

In more positive news, my home computer lab is working well now. I have a virtualized OPNsense router that outperforms the piece of rubbish supplied by Verizon. The one thing I have not been able to get going is WireGuard on the router. For now, I spun up a container to power WireGuard. I also spun up another container for Mastodon. I have to see what other services I can host.

I am currently using the 169.254.0.0/16 but I broke it down into a single 169.254.0.0/29 for my home use but that won’t work. I was planning on using that block as tunnel endpoint addresses for the WAN I’m building. I need to rethink this some. For now, it’s okay but it won’t be for much longer. I’m building this WAN in the name of learning.
