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 […]

So yes, I was *on* all week, due to the off-site (at my former office a little north of here) program management workshop Tuesday through Thursday, which involved backing up my boss’s never-ending energy with technical expertise and rapid-fire abilities to yank obscure documentation out of the aether at her word. Plus, I had to […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

Been a hell of a week all around. Don’t feel like talking about it. Here’s what Spotify spit out this morning while I’ve been doing my best to smile through the despair That’s a link, btw, to a track from my quick-and-dirty bandcamp release of fawm two-track demos – the whole six-track record may be […]

Few particularly noteworthy accomplishments to report this week. Last weekend? Sure. All those previously mentioned events went off without a hitch, and on Sunday I did a two-fer on state parks, hitting York River and Machicomico, hiking a little over eleven miles between them, and ticking off the next milestone on the Trail Quest business.
