At my Toastmasters club last night, the evening's grammarian, having returned recently from a country where she did not speak the resident language (Germany), noted that the evening's speeches were filled with linguistic flourishes that were illustrative, but noted, also, that such illustrative language can decrease accessibility to people whose first language is not English. It was an interesting point about the tension between wanting to captivate an audience with vivid expressions while not making a speech inaccessible.

This last weekend, I went on a float trip. Four hours in, a thunderstorm moved in and we had to hard paddle for the remaining three miles in a downpour. We left our tent windows open, so all our stuff was soaked with rain. We ended up having to abandon our campfire dinner plans and grab dinner at a local Chinese buffet. Then we had to wake up at 4am and haul ass to pack up our campsite in the rain to avoid being caught in an even worse storm, hitting the road by 6am. It was great, and I can't wait to go floating again next year.

The single biggest reason I would ever discourage someone from getting into software development with Node on GitHub is to save them from the barrage of Dependabot emails that arrive on a nearly daily basis.

My partner got me a cocktail subscription for our datingversary, and they sent the tiniest, cutest bottles of bitters.

A coworker told me this week that he's visiting Nice and I said, "I heard it's nice there," and he just said, "Yeah," and didn't acknowledge the joke and my failure now lives rent-free in my head.

Coming home may have required twelve hours of travel and an unexpected stop in Wichita, but at least I got a rainbow out of it.

And now I sit in Wichita because weather closed Kansas City's airport. Wildest flight home to date.

My original flight out of SFO was delayed 30 minutes because they were looking for a spare part to fix the plane. When it became an 85-minute delay, I had them rebook my flight because I was going to miss my connecting flight. I'm about to board my new flight three hours later and my old flight still has not yet departed. Some say UA 2348 is still waiting for that part to this very day.

My phone keeps auto-correcting "Bankr" to "bankruptcy" and I wonder if Google's telling me its opinions on crypto trading.

I used my Priority Pass to get a $28 discount on my bill at an airport restaurant and was worried that it would cover the whole bill and I, lacking cash, would have to figure out a way to tip my server without a bill to pay. Thankfully, airport pricing saved me: my $18 plate and a coffee magically came out to $28.66, so all was well with the world.

Walking down the street. Guy passes me on a skateboard: "Dude! I love your awesome pink hat!" And now I know it's a high-visibility clothing item at night.

I asked an AI agent to write some code for me and all it did was put a bunch of commented-out code and TODOs in my code, which I could have done myself - admittedly, less quickly than it did, but, still.

*partner is grating a cheese block, I think they're holding it too high* Me: "I'm going to laugh when that cheese brick breaks." *they grate the cheese; no breakage occurs* Partner: "Hm." Me: "You are a grater person than I am." I may have lost the prediction, but I still won in the end. 😎

Had a wicked cough due to air quality this past week. Let's see if a couple of ounces of scotch, a half ounce of simple, and some club soda can help with it.
