I brought a book to an appointment that I knew would involve a few minutes of waiting at various times. They said “oh, we don’t take that long!” I read three chapters.

I asked a question and then things happened and an annoying task at work has disappeared! The task began because someone long ago thought it might be nice, it turned into me spending a full day deep diving in our archives for numbers that might not even exist.

SQUID YES

Outreach camp season has started, first camp was today after fun scheduling issues mean that it got shifted at close to last minute. About 60 successful LED bugs made, one band-aid used. Not that the kid was burned, they just wanted a band-aid.

In the process the cat was tragically abandoned (left at home in a heated pod across the room from his food dish…) for a whole 7 hours and is now refusing to get off my arm.

All my favorite things were on sale at the store yesterday. This is such a tiny victory that it turned into a tiny complaint because they’d sold out of one of them :joy: but I have two pints of NadaMoo for $4.50 each so win!

I said no to an industry meet-up I was invited to because I worked with one of the attendees and I have no need or desire to spend social time with them again. (It is a small meetup, so I’d need to engage beyond just a superficial level)
