So apparently I need a root canal. Not real thrilled about that.

Over on FB I got a friend request from someone I don’t recognize but given the fairly specific mutuals now I’m pondering if maybe I knew them when they were someone else.
Ah what the hell. It’s not like I spend much time on FB.

I’m enjoying Robot Framework. Much easier than directly using the Selenium Webdriver API.

Nothing is fun the way the morning’s taskwarrior triage is fun.

Good news: my teeth don’t hurt quite so much.
Bad news: because a crown popped clean off.

@djsundog Pretty much my thought. Thankfully @IamMrsGeek got me through the lingering pain and Old Person Literally Falling Apart depressive slump.

Spent an hour and a half messing with cables and adjusting settings so I could be a tiny bit more comfortable at my desk.
Worth it in the long run but right now it feels like a silly amount of effort.

Now that I’m using Django for web apps instead of APIs, class-based views make a lot more sense.
(and the APIs used class-based views too, they just called it DRF)

Sometimes I feel like there some people want Perl to die when they do.

The dogs think the elevator floor is delicious.
Honestly I’m grateful that they lack the language skills needed to tell me why.

I worry as lockdown progresses and people sounding more and more like — well, like me. Difficulty focusing, unpredictable moods, sensitivity to stimuli.
Friends. It’s hard work being this awesome while dealing with these neurons. Take care of yourselves over there.

Time for bed. Sleepy time thought: I like pytest parametrize a lot.
Almost as much as I like Test::More subtests in Perl.

I worked in food service many years when I was young. Mostly busing & waiting tables.
Now I am older and grayer of hair and slower of foot, but —
Me: I love you!
She, fresh forkful of food still in her mouth: mbmftoo! (thumbs up)

It’s a bit frustrating sometimes that I’m best at business style communication at 1:46am. That’s the sweet spot for thinking like a normal person.
Right before I collapse from exhaustion.

They’re playing “Business Time” on #KEXP so I better get to work.

Bought a limited series beer called “The Giant Made From Shadows” and it’s a cool name and a tasty beverage and flung me past the Ballmer Peak quicker than I was prepared for.

Hearing some odd booms in West Seattle. Not fireworks, unless somebody’s got a couple M-80s. Other noises going too.

Coffee first. Don’t talk to me until I’ve — oh damn I had my coffee. Running out of excuses.
