Today has been a near total sensory barrage that led to a twenty-minute telephone call because SNAP renewal is back to the more involved process it had before the pandemic, and I’ll be dragging the rest of the day.

Time to watch something new.

If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all. -- Oscar Wilde

Spotify is just begging me to unsubscribe. I don’t even what these stupid pop ups that started occurring this week are all about. I just want to play some damn music.

Second round of coffee. Final leather dye work in this studio apartment, final photos as-well.

I've been itching to write some fiction lately. I still have a fanfic I need to finish, but I'd love to write some original flash fiction or a short story taking place in the Appalachians and revolving around cryptids.

Knocking through masses of one-to-ones, emails, admin tasks, training, and occasional bits of actual data manipulation after two days away from my desk. Busy day!

I live in fear of accidentally cross-posting a profanity filled tirade about something like font characteristics or icon design to LinkedIn and exposing the real me to my professional contacts.

My two angry teeth have decided to acknowledge they received care and treatment yesterday, so maybe they'll let me think straight today with just a Tylenol or two.

I remember finding out about omg.lol when I was on my 40th birthday trip to Costa Rica. Been a pretty cool service and coming up on a year of using this service. Most of the time posting into the void of the internet. But something about it just seems better compared to all the other social networking services.

I stumbled across this and wanted to share. Interesting Fediverse network stats:

Hi Matthew,

The ultrasound results show fatty liver disease which is very common. Fatty liver disease is managed via management of diabetes and making healthy diet choices. So things look stable!

We should though just place a referral to a GI specialist who can monitor this just to ensure that it stays stable. That referral will be completed within the week.

XXXXXX APRN,CNP ——— What means this "healthy diet choices" words word?

Sometimes I can’t even believe how amazing are the people I work with. A colleague just crushed it on a spreadsheet that would’ve taken me forever to create.

AT&T fixed the internet. To be honest, I've never had a better customer experience with an ISP.

I already don’t like today. Can I just go back to bed?

Dzień (11?, 12?) trzynasty #WeblogPoMo2024

Tak, przez dwa dni nic nie było! Trudno, musiałem odpocząć po bardzo ciężkim tygodniu.

Dziś opisuję jak oceniam wartość posiadanych (lub nie) rzeczy, i jak to robię w #Obsidian.

I am NOT ready for people today!

Planted out my strawberries, the raspberries are budding already, and my grass is finally making a come back after an incredibly soggy winter. Summer is on it's way.

Perhaps wearing a T-shirt and a light jacket today wasn’t a good idea after all.

About a week left until I take my Anatomical Pathology boards!

I have way too many personal projects, but I'm taking time to work on things a little at a time. Weekends need to be three days…

I seriously need to start going to bed at a consistent time… I’m so exhausted.

Embracing the start of the weekend with open arms.

I put a little stain remover in my coffee so, when I spill it on my shirt, it's pre-pretreated.

Only trust your fists. God will never help you.

I've missed a day or two so far, but this WeblogPoMo thing isn't as intimidating as it first seemed. I've found a lot to write about.

hey, i've had some bad unexpected expenses come up. could you help if you see this statuslog and have anything to share?

New blog post about rebuilding my site in Eleventy

Hello there

I'm at a point where I want new fun startup-y projects, but I also want... job security and a cushy salary, but those are so different 😭

Increasing my STEAM activities... must do a blog post on this soon!

Finally, #summer arrives shyly. #uk #sun #bbq

I had to turn off my "send nothing" settings and "delete everything from LinkedIn" filters for a work project. OMG, what a torrent of spew LinkedIn spams into my mailbox. How is this useful for anyone?

Welp, I’ll be at the hospital all night with my dad, who is having difficulty breathing and battling some sort of infection.

My copy of Diddy Kong Racing arrives tomorrow and I am so excited! I never owned it growing up but always loved playing it and trying to compete it in the tiny rental window.

I've been posting on social media more frequently lately.

Contemplating whether or not to mow the lawn. I want to take part in “no mow May”, but it should probably start off slightly shorter than it currently is…

The truth still matters, even when it’s inconvenient.

Have been watching the Fallout TV series. I'm 3 episodes in, and I'm enjoying it very much. Have the itch to go back to playing Fallout 4 or Fallout 76.

Great article about Facebook, AI clickbait and people's ability to discern what's real:

I use Social Fixer to read Facebook on my computer, but actually post to Facebook on my iPad. If I make the mistake of scrolling down, I'm bombarded with garbage. The more I read The Age of Surveillance Capitalism, the more I want to move away from it, but there's no good substitute yet.

Actively job hunting. I’d like to continue my career as a Senior Technical Writer. Remote positions only. Thanks if you help in anyway.

Google’s connected speakers and hubs are actually useful (unlike Alexa and Siri…), but it’s really hard when you’re super angry about something and have to mumble “Hey Google …” through gritted teeth. Just let us change the wake phrase.

Preparing for #WeblogPoMo2024!

so excited for the new logo. it looks really neat!

Bookmaking class is so fun, I'm enjoying it so much. The mostly likely way I'll use this skill is to make sketchbooks for myself, but I was commenting in class that it can be frustrating when you have a nice sketchbook but screw up a page. Turns out our teacher has a class on that exact topic next month: techniques for covering a botched page in your sketchbook. Guess I'll be taking an art class in May, too! Oh darn. Twist my arm.

But I don’t want to be an adult today…

I go visit a friend, they serve me tuna sandwiches and I like them. Next time I’m at the store I buy cans of tuna. Today, I organize my cabinets and throw out years old expired cans of tuna. 🤷🏻‍♂️

It’s been a long time since I rode the ferry. It’s still so nice to go into the city this way.

Just finished Audible's recently released version of 1984. Terrific performances all round, a chilling experience from a chilling source material.

Just tried removing the CSS from my site in preparation for #CSS_Naked_Day, it was just a bunch of ginormous SVGs. I think I'll skip participating this year.

Going back in time

I'm about to watch the eclipse

The weekend off had quickly gone, and this week I have a pretty busy schedule. Starting with a 16 hours shift.

Nice to have a week at home between business trips. I try to space out travel to no more than once per month, but this month just stacked up for me. Gotta enjoy the time at home while I can!
