Weeklog

It's been a while since my last Weeklog post, so it's time to summarize recent events in another one. A lot more happened than I realized at first.

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…

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.

I sit on the HOA board for my community. We’re trying to put together a flyer to get more people engaged. Coming from a design background, I’m finding it amusing to hear all the ideas coming from other board members, though they have no design experience whatsoever.

Today consists of washing and gassing up the RV for a trip to the desert this weekend. Naturally, today is cold and rainy. As badly as I want to procrastinate right now, I have to get moving on the task…
