So very tired of New Egg using my number to text me sale spam. Really wish it was possible to sue companies for using numbers given for 2FA to send sales crap. 😮‍💨 Solution: created a burner Google Voice number and now all that crap can go there. 🤣

As a grown-up Nintendo kid, I was worried about the new Super Mario Bros. Movie b/c those games, living up to that legacy is a huge task… That said, after watching it…wow, that movie is good. The music was absolutely fantastic, mixing themes from the games and the 80’s, it was prefect. 🎬

Not only did we loose all the refrigerated / frozen food in the house but the cat peed in the office… Oh, also, my oldest UPS finally kicked the bucket during the storms that knocked out the power. First days back from vacation are always the worst part about vacation. 🤣 #FirstWorldProblems

While on vacation, we lost power for two days; translation: all the food in our house is now bad. Just bought a giant battery for future outages, will add a solar panel down the road (this is the second time in six months we’ve lost power for an extended period of time). 🔌🪫

I really want to fix the ”networking setup” in the Airbnb; I opened up the cabinet, it was scorching in there. 😭

Once again, my Mac Air crashing has corrupted both of my Time Machine drives…but don’t worry, “it just works." 😱

Impressed with this hotel wifi, on a Zoom call and running a local WebLogic Server with no issues. 👍🏻

Listening to a ton of podcasts this morning, mostly tech ones…and everyone is so excited about the Apple headset. Am I the only one not excited about it? 🎧

Lunch with a coworker. 🍴

Hey @Reddit, why are you emailing me interesting posts if I can’t get to any of them? Perhaps instead of lying about communications with 3rd party developer you could tell the truth and just be honest you don’t want them to exist anymore?

I have a love/hate relationship with unit testing but as they just caught a logic bug in some if/else statements, I won’t curse them out this morning. 🤣 #code

Making some cookies for a friend. 🍪🧈 #baking

Twelve years ago today, an adorable man smiled at me and simply said ”yes”…and we’ve been together ever since. Happy anniversary to my Friend, my Rock, my beautiful Pookie. ❤️💕🏳️‍🌈

Helped a friend set up his new Nintendo Switch…the OLED model…and now I want to buy one… 🎮😭

I feel like I just moved heaven and earth to get my Apple TV remote working with my Sonos Beam…but in the end, restarting the remote is what fixed it. Also, the absurdity of that just struck me: why are remotes to the point we have to be able to restart them…? 😱

Came all the way out onto the pier for some therapy. 🛋️📺 #TV #BobNewhart #Chicago

Wait, wait…don’t tell me…? 🤣📻 #npr

I sometimes feel like I’m the only person still using RSS feeds to stay up to date on news; it’s been working great for 10+ years but I think I need to modify my approach with filters: I really don’t care about new Google products, given most will be dead within 5 years. 🤣

Goodness, something is clearly going on today with dynamic advertising injection in podcasts b/c I do not speak any Spanish; it’s not that I don’t want to learn French or Spanish but the only languages I’m good at are computer languages. 🤣

Throwing in the towel for the day, our Jenkins build server is misbehaving. 😱
