Week Notes 25#12

A busy week back to work:

  • Lots of things to catch up on
  • Been feeling the 'whelms, and had some weird concentration towards the end of the week
    • Definitely been feeling the obligations (in and out of work)
    • Ended up working on something that was super valuable, causing a lot of toil, but not necessarily the time to do it, as I couldn't concentrate on the other things I needed to do 🫣
  • Recorded a fun episode of Fallthrough with Kris and Ian on API design
    • Also had some fun chats pre- and post- recording
    • And still very much love Kris' final words of the episode, "build with what you've got"
  • Walking Cookie on Wednesday, I did some pre-thinking for the podcast so had my phone voice recording while walking her
    • But it ended up recording from my phone, not my headphones, so it was ~40 minutes of wasted great thoughts + content 😞
  • We've been doing better with Cookie being in the living room overnight, and she's been liking it too
    • But one night, Morph sat in Anna's spot on the sofa and didn't move until the morning 🥰
  • Been having nice chicken salad for lunches
  • Got our perfect pizza order 🍕😋
  • Had a lovely dinner out at Rakki Rakkas 😋
  • Cookie's been a bit out of sorts the last few days, being very needy when we've been at our desks, wanting cuddles, sleeping at our feet or under our desks, but otherwise being her normal state
  • After a few switches of my music from desktop -> phone -> desktop, I ended up listening to the same ~12 songs on Spotify on-and-off
  • Finished off my GopherConUK call for paper submissions
  • Did some tweaks to my talks site to make it clearer when talks haven't been done for a while / before
  • Was weird having the clocks change, and make the whole day feel like the wrong times

Watched:

  • Reacher
    • A great end to the series
  • Brooklyn 99
  • Severance
    • Smashed season 2 out and very much enjoyed it
    • Mixed feelings about the Severance Podcast having ads for Atlassian (Confluence) 😅😅😅
    • Definitely thought Robby Benson was the voice of Gman from Half Life, but turns out Robby just has a great voice
  • (no Andor)
