Notes

It looks like the RV will be in the shop for our early May trip as well, so we’ve rescheduled and booked a hotel in Palm Springs for that weekend instead. Early May is the perfect time to visit “The Springs.”

WTAF, Apple??? If I delete a stupid app like Playground from my phone, don’t reinstall it, please… Jeez. 🙄

I finished reading Hell Yeah or No by Derek Sivers today. I’m starting it over again tomorrow, reading an entry every day or two and making notes on it. There’s no rush to get through the book this time around. I plan to take it slow and really think about what I’m getting from what I’ve read.

Wearing my Micro.blog tee at work today and a coworker asked me what it was about. Had the opportunity to share and answer questions for about 10 minutes. Maybe she’ll sign up…

Eh, what the heck… I’m back on Bluesky again.

Well, I didn’t get a bike ride in this weekend, but my wife and I did make the mile walk down to pier plaza to sit and watch the tourists for a while. Thankfully, only a minor contingent of whackos were out (it is a beach city after all) and no MAGAts to deal with whatsoever.

I have a ton of chores to catch up on this weekend, but the weather is going to be absolutely gorgeous. I need to whittle down that chore list to spend some time doing a beach bike ride. The weeds in the yard will still be there (only bigger) next weekend.

I think if I had a dream job, it would be to work with HTML and CSS styling all day. That’s where I find my flow state.

There’s something about being in the desert at night. Total stillness and then coyotes calling out to one another. Or the brightness of so many stars you could seemingly reach out and touch each of them. I’d forgotten that the desert is where I feel the most at peace. I needed this.
