In which nothing.

I keep forgetting to blog because it’s 2024 and people don’t read blogs anymore, which means there’s no engagement, which means that thing in your head that tells you to blog is now telling you to spend three solid hours scrolling Bluesky instead.

Anyway, it’s Monday, my day off, and I’ve gotten through 8 of the 15 items on my to-do list, two of which required me to actually work my actual job (I do the bi-monthly newsletter for the creamery, and also I have some thing tomorrow where somebody hired me to do a half hour presentation sans AV equipment on cheese and serve a cheese platter, and nobody can speak extemporaneously for thirty fucking minutes without a slide deck unless they’re defending their pHd or whatever so I had to cram a little).

I have all the doors and most of the windows wide open but it’s not exactly warm enough for that so I’m wearing socks and a wool sweater and will shortly be drinking hot tea.

I made soup for lunch and ate it with some homemade bread.

I’m re-reading old Jeeves on my Paperwhite.

We watched Fallout together last week and it was good.

I ordered a second watch with a date display, because I keep looking at my watch when I need to know what day it is, for some reason. I’ve been staunchly anti-watch for literal decades but now I’m a watch guy, I guess? Anyway it’s a Timex and it was something like 63% off and it shows the day name and number and it fits the silicone watch bands I already have so I’ll be able to wear it to work without damaging the leather band it comes with. I’m pretty excited about Wednesday, which is when it’s supposed to arrive.

Apropos of nothing, here’s a meal I made and ate two months ago:

It was delicious!
