As I’m gearing up to return to work, I’m catching up on my professional networks, including opting out of AI related stuff where ever possible.
As a PSA for Micro.blog folk… If you’re not necessarily a fan of the book covers being displayed for your bookshelf related posts, you can hide the image by adding .microblog_book{display:none} to your custom CSS. It’s a great Mb addition, but if you’re minimalist like me, this is how to do it.
I pulled one of my basses out of the closet to noodle with it this morning. It’s been more than a year since I last played and my hands are so out of shape it was like being a novice all over again.
As they say, for every day missed, you lose two days. I’ve got a lot of catching up to do.
Finished reading: The Black Echo by Michael Connelly 📚
A gripping read, but I did figure out the plot before the end of the book…
On to the third installment in the series.
Well… I woke up too early (4 am). It seemed like the right thing to do at the time, but I should’ve just stayed in bed a few more hours. I see a nap in my immediate future.

mnml Update v2.7.6 Released
This update adds Polish localization, tweaks Open Graph image generation, and cleans up code for project tidiness.
Today’s my last day of cardiac rehab. I’m fortunate not to have had an episode resulting in heart damage. This helped me bounce back quickly.
My return to work is now two weeks away. I both look forward to and dread it at the same time. I’ve come to enjoy the slow pace of the last three months.
If you’ve been hoping for a die-cut IndieWeb is Punk decal, today is your day… Check it out on my new Printful store.
Sorry International friends - no shipping across the pond & beyond yet, but if you really want a quantity, contact me and we can work something out.
Even though I feel pretty darned good, I have to remember some parts of me are still healing. I rolled over in bed last night and managed to pull a spot on my right pectoral muscle. It’s not a bad pull, but it is annoying me this morning.
mnml Updated for Open Graph Images
Exciting update for Micro.blog users! mnml theme (v2.7.5) now fully supports the latest Micro.blog Open Graph enhancement.
After watching the Bosch series on Amazon, I’m delving into the Bosch Universe books by Michael Connelly. I really like his writing. After watching the shows, it’s easy to connect Connelly’s characters in my mind’s eye while reading.
I have to be honest… The whole *OS 26 glass look is not bugging me too much. There’s some weirdness here and there, but I’m really not minding it so far. Of course I haven’t delved deeply into my workflows yet, so we’ll see later in the day.
And what’s the first thing I did this morning? I began updating all my devices to their respective OS 26 variants. I swore I wasn’t going to do this… 🤞🏻
Let’s not forget: The US flag flying half-staff today is not for a single right-wing extremist who was assassinated. No. It’s for the nearly 3,000 innocent lives, including eight children, who were murdered on September 11, 2001 – plus the numerous first responders who selflessly came to their aid.
I’ve been able to lock in a return to work date of 10/6 with all my doctors, which is good because the week after is an industry conference (Dreamforce) which my team and I will be traveling to. Having the extra week before will let me get my ducks in a row. I’m so ready to get back to work!
After watching the CNET quick cut of yesterday’s Apple event, there’s nothing for me here. I see no upgrades or updates in my immediate future, including anything OS 26 related.
