Christoflurp is on intermission.


Between May 26th and June 28th of 2023 I was able to take a paid month off work. It's something called an Intermission, and is available to anyone who has worked 5 years at Shopify. It's an opportunity to unwind, reflect, and pursue whatever it is that I think will provide value to my life.

During it I did a lot of writing, reading, connecting with others, and spending time considering myself. Ultimately, I don't think I utilized it as well as I could have, but that disappointment serves no one, so it isn't worth focusing on too much.

Captured below are the updates I did during my days off. Not every day had anything worth mentioning, and sometimes I just didn't get a chance to sit down and write something, so you'll notice gaps.

Aside from linking to other things, there's probably very little exciting in here, but if you want to know what I did during my intermission, this is it.
