    Photo Challenge: April 2024

    ๐Ÿ“ท April 2024 Micro.Blog photo challenge, Day 2: Flowers

    White bell-shaped flowers (lily of the valley) hanging from a curved stem amid broad green leaves; a white wall in the background.

    Lily of the Valley has always been my favorite flower. Some of my earliest memories are of me and Grandma, picking them on a shady hill at her old house. My Partner planted a ton of them in the backyard a few years ago. ๐Ÿ˜Š๐ŸŒผ #mbapr

    ๐Ÿ“ท April 2024 Micro.Blog photo challenge, Day 1: Toy

    A small dog rests beside a cinched plush toy resembling a log, in a room with a record collection.

    Russell was never all that fond of them but he would occasionally get a toy; he absolutely destroyed the squirrels inside the log. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿถ #mbapr

    Note: This post was backdated, as I missed the first day.

    Finished reading: The Gorgon Incident and Other Stories by John Bierce ๐Ÿ“š
    โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜†โ˜†

    Having finished the Mage Errant series last year, it was rather nice to go back to the same world / universe, to revisit and reminisce.

    An orange octopus-like creature emerges amidst ruins and water, tentacles grasping floating swords. Cover for 'THE GORGON INCIDENT AND OTHER STORIES: A MAGE ERRANT ANTHOLOGY' by John Bierce.

    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. ๐Ÿคฃ

    Is it just me or is advertising in podcasts just getting…awful? I just listened to five minutes of “sales stuff” and…yuck (it was he same commercial, repeated three times). I’m all for paying for podcasts but some of them, there just isn’t a way to avoid the advertising.

    ๐Ÿฟ Date Night: we decided to watch a movie neither of us had seen and as we’ve been watching Fawlty Towers lately, we ended up on A Fish Called Wanda. By the end, our sides were hurting from all the laughing; ๐Ÿคฃ this movie is beyond absurd, in all the best possible ways.

    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! ๐Ÿ˜‚ Maybe it was b/c Docker was involved but goodness, that turned out complicated than I thought.

    Finished reading: The Price Of Power by B. K. Cook ๐Ÿ“š
    โ˜…โ˜…โ˜†โ˜†โ˜†

    The last book of the series (though, the author makes it pretty clear they’ll be continuing the books), this one felt a little rushed and you could see the ending coming a mile away but it was still a satisfying conclusion.

    A cloaked figure and a lion approach a large tree against a mountainous backdrop at dusk. Text: 'THE PRICE OF POWER BOOK 3 OF THE ILAMANTIUM SAGA B.K. COOK'

    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. ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿคฌ

    (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. ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ˜ก #HealthcareInAmerica #FirstWorldProblem

    A dear friend of mine would have turned 42 today, if she hadnโ€™t passed away during the Pandemic. Rest in peace, sweet Carolโ€ฆwe all still miss you. I hope whatever you are, Russell is keeping you company, begging for scratches and watching you eat, hoping for crumbs to fall. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ๐Ÿ˜ข๐Ÿ’”
