Sometimes you post a really dumb question and then a simple search actually yields the results when you use just the right combination of keywords…
Holy Carp, Batman! My Apple Watch just alerted me my resting heart rate was 39 bpm a few minutes ago. That’s the lowest waking rate yet. I’ll be so happy to get through the monitoring phase (two more days to go) so we can start taking some action. Since “the episode” and new meds a few months ago, my heart rate has been averaging 45 bpm daily.
I created a new Twitter/X account a few days ago because a few people I want to follow in the Salesforce ecosystem have chosen to remain there. What do you think I was greeted with upon my return? Several bots trying to get me to click links to “see their content.” Some things just never change…
If you’re in a virtual meeting with a prospective vendor and say to them “I’m excited to be here” as part of your introduction, I have to ask – are you really? I know I’m not. 🤣
True to form, I have pivoted from Bear.app to Obsidian for note taking — at work. Let’s see if it sticks.
Jury summons has been postponed until mid-October. Hopefully the “really big project” at the day job will be done by then. 🤞
Dang it! A jury duty summons came in the mail today. The first one in over 13 years. My luck was bound to run out sooner or later.
One team member out ill, the other on PTO, and the two offshore resources are off for a voting holiday. This leaves only me should the world start to crumble. Hoping it doesn’t…
My new favorite monospaced font has to be Apple’s SF Mono. To my eyes, it’s super clean and legible. I’ve updated all my IDEs to use it after downloading and installing.
I’ll be shifting my online presence to my WordPress blog more over the next few months and use Micro.blog less. There’s a post explaining why I’m making the pivot in my drafts folder, but basically, it all comes down to having total control.
Tinylytics uptime monitoring of my Micro.blog site has been reporting an awful lot of sporadic downtime lately. Anyone else experiencing the same?
A huge shoutout (and thanks) to @jean for putting together the April Photoblogging Challenge. It was a kick finding my own images, as well as seeing other’s interpretations for prompts. Just one more pin to go to have them all now.
I was woken this morning at 2:18am by what must’ve been a dream where people were urgently calling my name to get my attention. Once awake, I was unable to fall back asleep. I’ve woken up like this before. I’m not sure what it stems from.
I had a great idea for my next WordPress plugin this morning while reviewing the hacks I’ve added to my own site’s functions.php file. More to come soon.
Two months after “the episode” I’ve managed to shed 17 pounds. A balance of meds, extreme dietary change and exercise made it possible. I’ve managed to develop a refined sugar aversion/phobia because of it too.
📷 Bonus Day 2: Unputdownable.
One of my all-time favorite books. My family came to California in much the same way, so to me, it was completely relatable.
Today, I was a hero. I saved a four man-hour meeting with a single email that took less than five exchanges to resolve. Remember kids, a meeting is not always needed to get something done if you’re clear and concise with your questions up front.

📷 Day 30: Hometown.
📷 Day 29: Drift.
