Work was kinda busy this week, continuing to put out fires, which is kinda what I do now. No worries; they keep on paying me, I keep on logging in. That big problem requirement has been successfully pushed off my plate to be dealt with by folks who are authorized to spend the money, but […]

Not a lot of engagement with the world, online or otherwise that hasn’t had to do with work these last two weeks. That can happen when you get assigned a seriously time-sensitive and poorly-documented requirement that somebody just dropped and abandoned four or five months ago, and needs to be solved now or the organization […]

Not loving this week. In particular, Thursday. I’m not sure I mentioned it previously, but we’ve been down a car the last week and change after somebody forgot the emergency brake and the Honda rolled back into a gas pump pollard and hyper-extended the open door. As such, I’ve really not had the range of […]

So, I’ve been up to some stuff. Last weekend, with it’s pub crawl adventures (lots of fun showing a friend around town and sampling many libations and game stores) and Ravencon was pretty cool. I think I played some really good shows (I might actually be getting kind of good at this?) and the new […]

As mentioned previously, I’ll be a guest at Ravencon, my hometown convention here in the RVA, this weekend. I’ll be playing a few solo shows and being an occasional panelist. I haven’t played this one in a few years; the last time was doing the RavenCon Summer Concert back in ’21, though I’ve been attending […]

So, periodontal surgery last week went off without a hitch; got the gums slashed and stitched, and after the first eighteen hours or so which hurt like hell, the pain’s been very manageable. I’m a little tired of the industrial plastic taste from the dressings installed around the sutures, and am growing rather weary of […]

So, last weekend was a nice diversion, getting to play some shows with my friends down in Durham. I thought we sounded pretty good, though it’d have been nice if more folks had come to the shows. This one wasn’t really a big music event, though double-digits would’ve been nice. The Saturday show, though, did […]

It has been a week. I worked, I got through the day, I mostly slept okay, and had a really nice bike ride in Thursday afternoon’s gorgeous 80°+ temperatures, which helped distract me from what day Thursday was. Three decades later, I still miss my dad most on his birthday. Not much so say otherwise, […]

As hinted at last week, I spent a great deal of this week fighting off a sinus bug that’s making its way around the household. I plodded through the work week, got some minimal time outside (my Pikmin Bloom group pooling for 100k steps is going to be tight), and did my best to sleep […]

I’m honestly not sure why, though I spent a good bit of this week feeling like I was on the edge of sick. Exhausted, hot/cold flashes, headaches, and all that good stuff. I continued to plow through my week nonetheless, because there’s stuff that had to be done, including some extra running about, as until […]
