Update 📰

Awake since 05:00 (took a friend to the airport 🛫), I’m worried there isn’t enough coffee in my house to keep me awake today… 🥱😆

Getting my license renewed and the Golden Girls theme song comes on the overhead speakers, it must be a sign. 👏🏻

📺 We finally finished Fawlty Towers, with the last episode causing us to laugh so hard and loud, we set off the noise alert on my Apple Watch. 🤣 John Cleese really is a cometic genius. 👏🏻 It’s a very good show, we will absolutely watch it again.

Wow, that’s rather detailed…

I affirm that I will not use the Software for nuclear. missile, chemical biological weaponry. or other weapons of mass destruction, (For more information on the U.S. export laws, see the Bureau of Industry and Security's home page.)

I’m sure I’ve agreed to this before, in other TOS that no one reads but that’s oddly specific. 🧐

(Downloading…or rather, attempting to download, a copy of VMware Fusion Pro.)

I guess I have to eat my words, I just downloaded Delta from the App Store on my lunch break. The on-screen controls aren’t great but I’m sure I have a bluetooth controller around here somewhere. 🎮🎉

I kinda went on a bit of a reading binge over the past week, reading the initial six books of the Aegis of Merlin series. This was another one of those “Amazon recommends this” instances and I fell for it. That said, the books were highly addictive and I’m obviously going to keep reading them. 🤭

Passport photo acquired, paperwork is being sent off tomorrow…Canada, here I come! 🛫
(In 10 to 15 weeks 🤣)

What’s a caffeine addict to do when there isn’t any coffee in the house? They walk to the local ice cream parlor and get breakfast before the workday starts. 🤣 ☕️🍳🥯 📷

Just realized I missed day one of the “April 2024 Micro.Blog photo challenge” 😭

Working on my taxes this afternoon and wanted to double-check there were no documents for an old retirement account. It’s nice to know some things never change: Empower Retirement is still an awful company with awful tech. 🤣

Dinner tonight… 😋🍱📷

Given my background with MS Sql / T-SQL, you’d think it would be trivial for me to upgrade from PostgreSQL 15 to 16…but you’d be wrong! 😂 Maybe it was b/c Docker was involved but goodness, that turned out complicated than I thought.

Set up a FreshRSS server over the weekend for fun; yes, I am a nerd. 🤓

You know it’s bad when the representative from the Insurance company tells you to try GoodRX instead of using your own bloody insurance. Ah, healthcare in America. 😱🤬

(The generic version is out of stock and back-ordered everywhere in the City and the name-brand has a 110% markup.)

Can’t get a 90 day supply of mediation filled b/c of an unspecified error in the computer system my mail-order pharmacy uses (they wouldn’t confirm if the big cyber-hack was the cause), so I have to use a local one but they don’t do 90 day supplies. 😱😡 #HealthcareInAmerica #FirstWorldProblem
