📷 Another perfect SoCal Thanksgiving day.

Today is the first day in 30 years, apart from the one year we didn’t host, that I will not cook a whole turkey for Thanksgiving. This year it’s just my wife, youngest son and me for the holiday. Instead, we’ll just do a single breast. The rest of my famous side dishes are still on the menu though…

If you’ve been waiting to buy that Micro.blog t-shirt, or any other Cotton Bureau merch, now is the time to do it. CB is waiving shipping (international 50% off) when you use discount code THANKYOU25 at checkout. Hurry though. This offer expires Monday, 12/1.

I love the process of setting up a new workstation from scratch as I slowly figure out which apps I rely on for my day to day workflows.

I had check-ins with two different doctors today who both pronounced me in fantastic shape. It’s only been five months since my heart surgery, but I can barely remember it now. I think clouding memories like that is the mind’s way of healing from the trauma.

There is someone, or some bot out of Singapore that’s hitting URLs on my site from a very old index (we’re talking 10 years ago) nearly every day. I wish there was a way to block this behavior on Micro.blog.

My wife and I are heading to Houston, TX for a nephew’s wedding. I’m more excited about going to a blues club tonight than anything else. It’ll be great to see what the scene is like there as opposed to the west coast “LBZ”.

With the recent update to NetNewsWire, I thought I might move my RSS feed syncing from BazQux to iCloud. So far it’s been impressively responsive and always seems to be up to date when browsing feeds on my four different devices. That’s $30 saved a year.

I’ve begun reading the next installment in the Bosch universe: Trunk Music by Michael Connelly 📚. I think I remember this episode from the Amazon series. We’ll see how well they align.
