Sorry about the rain Wellington. I lit the bbq today.

It’s a nice beer you’ve got there @jpdanner.com shame if something were to happen to it.

Pulled pork, low and slow, day today.

Back at the brewtown market with the youngest daughter’s business. Come get some frozen treats for your dog!

Ok naive question: I’ve been on anti-depressants for the last three weeks for the first time and tbh not much I feel different beyond being tired a lot more. Not that I want medical advice from here but is that normal?

Movie time. Keeping the cinema going with our patronage.

Eldest daughter has finished her final exam. I’m on leave. It’s a rain day. So we’re off to the movies. This is spending more time with my family right?

This is quite a novel tea

Heard that quake coming for a good 10 seconds. Thought it might be a truck then wobble wobble. #eqnz

Marking this for future. The time my neighbor/sister in law’s trampoline went for a fly.

Love a good rustic sourdough to start the day (this time with alt text)

Golf and TTRPG that about sums me up. Thanks to my family for the birthday presents. Can’t wait to get stuck into a daggerheart campaign with the crew. Lucky me. #criticalrole #daggerheart

Internet outage seems to be correlated to spark and their status page isn’t loading so I’m guessing someone pulled out the wrong plug somewhere

Seems like a lot of us are having connection issues here in NZ. Is there a wider fiber outage?

Brew day.

Timeline cleanse, I could just watch this on repeat

Anniversary weekend away success. Now at marshmallows on the fire time

It’s relay for life time. Great day for it. F**k cancer.

I presume there’s some big commercial research on 3 episodes being the magic to get people hooked or continue watching a series as I keep seeing that as the number of episodes first dropped. Must be a statistical “this is where churn drops off.”

Hops

It’s American car day at the race course near my house which means I’m putting up with loud, inefficient cars all around my house this morning. There may be some kind of metaphor in that.

So I am legitimate to post on Facebook that mercury supplements stave off death? That’s what I believe. It’s all about matter of opinion surely.

More sourdough posting but this time I’m just grateful for this bread maker. Post surgery I wasn’t allowed to knead my bread manually and so bunged it in here. It does a bloody good job so I don’t know if I’ll go back to manual process again.

Am I the only one getting a flurry of NZTA scam iMessages?

OMG I’m loving my Christmas present. I make pizza bases for the family once a fortnight and the new pizza peel makes everything so much easier. Love it. (Slightly overdid my pizza tonight)

Another attempt at sourdough crumpets

That’ll be a pretty good scar I’m sure.

Sourdough crumpet morning

The D&D Santa was good to me this year

Festive burn bandage. Thanks to some old behemoth socks.

It’s Christmas Eve here in Aotearoa, for us that means an annual tradition of getting the fondue set down and prepping for a good slow down dinner. First some bread needs to be baked though.

Hot water burns fast kids. 🤦

Go to wonder how much productive time is wasted in GP waiting rooms.

got to love Christmas profile photo season at work

Ok, day 5 and pain is worse this evening than yesterday. Might have to get back into the bigger painkillers for sleep tonight. 🎢

Post surgery day 3. Pain on wake up pretty localized. Probably about a 5-6 on the pain scale. Time to work out how to kneed sourdough in the bread maker. (Split a big batch in half and will recombine after)

That’s going to leave a mark. (Trigger warning of post surgical wound with staples in)

Wellington video creators that wanna have a yarn and connect, this is for you. www.meetup.com/nz-video-cre...

I’m a forever DM of my weekly game and massive @matthewmercer.bsky.social and @criticalrole.bsky.social fan. One day I’d love to know what notes and prompts Matt goes into each session with. His random NPCs are so deeply created, how much of that is improved at the table I wonder?

😢

I’m alive. if pretty groggy. now let me tell you what a foraminotomy has taught me about B2B sales… (1/1)

inspiring stuff from Ratu of OpenStar https://www.openstar.tech at Sunrise Aotearoa this morning.

Today is my last day at "the office" till Christmas I think. 😦 Tomorrow I'm looking forward to Sunrise Aotearoa and then it's in for a Foraminotomy on Wednesday, where I'm hoping for some relief (eventually) from 2 or more years of arm pain. 🤞
