After working in a role that I didn’t necessarily like at a company that wasn’t a good fit for me I quit at the end of august. Up until last week I hadn’t really had any new potential jobs come up but now it seems I got multiple options :) Looks like it’s going to work out after all.
me too! I quit a job that wasn’t good a week ago :D . I haven’t found new job though, I really want a job related to Linux, DevOps etc, but I am getting one that suits it. :/
It’s fun. I have it now with lots of work from home too. Recommended. :)
The company is not very good at following modern practices but… It’s relaxed and they have lots of money coming in, so no pressure to perform constantly. Not even daily standups. It’s amazing.
- A grass snake seems to have taken up residence under our compost heap. Hopefully it will be a suitable hibernation spot.
- New seasons of Star Trek: Lower Decks and Shrinking are out.
- My SO and I went for a good walk in a nearby woodland nature reserve. The autumn colours are really coming though now.
- I now have some cosy fleece pyjamas. I haven’t owned pyjamas for decades, but can see will that they will revolutionise my weekend mornings. I don’t know why I didn’t get some years ago.
I started watching lower decks and I need to catch up. and Picard. And there’s another coming up with 7 of 9? I’m so far behind it’s not funny. I was such a dedicated fan 25 years ago that I have the federation and klingon insignias tattoo’ed along with the enterprise. :D
A lot of small little things.
I got some brown habanero and biquinho peppers. The seeds were reserved for breeding projects, and the flesh for a hot but flavourful paste.
Sunday lunch pleased my nephew (a picky eater) so much that my sister called the next day, asking me for the recipe. It’s just an adapted version of Made with Lau’s sweet and sour fish (here’s a link).
Now that I bought the missing parts, watching my mum enjoy her new computer (with some old parts). “It doesn’t take a whole hour to boot!”… okay, she was exaggerating, it only took 5min or so to boot. But still, she’s happy with it.
I typically get a common cold every single Spring. (inb4 Southern Hemisphere here.) This year was no exception. However - I only spent a single day sick, I could work fine if I wanted, but I still had room to call the day off and spend the whole day on the bed.
Finally decided to travel to another state just to see my friends after 2 months social hiatus, really happy to see and hangout with everyone.
Slightly mixed-mood news that day, found out my crush seeing someone, am both happy for her and disappointed at myself :')
For the first time, explaining a hard tech problem I was trying to solve to my mother. And she got it.
Had to use the making of sandwiches as an analogy. But it worked.
Watching my friends enjoy the game I homebrewed with much love. Yes, I nearly killed them all twice but they managed to survive and everyone had fun.

I got Sonic X Shadow Generations as an early birthday present 🥹 I’m no good at Sonic games that use boost and drift controls, plus I’ve been busy, so I’m taking my time playing through the story, but it was a sweet present and I’m feeling super nostalgic.
Plus it’s nice to see Shadow being written better. Sega’s own writers have been pretty vocal about hating how they’re told to write him. It seems like Sega’s finally starting to ease up and letting them inject a little more emotion into the silly Shonen animal series again.
I am getting so old I can’t remember what I did yesterday lol. Let’s see… last week my Dad and I went out for lunch and we usually try a new restaurant. Last week we found a Chinese place with a CHINESE menu… it was so good. That kind of spicy where it burns but you have to keep eating it. :)
The arrival of the weekend tbh
