Snowshoeing today was very nice.

Crossword puzzles are much easier when they speak directly to your personal experience...

Probably more than three years of using the same starting word and it finally happened. Thanks, Wordle editors. Wordle 1,603 1/6* 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩

Happy Halloween! Here's @labsplaining.bsky.social impatiently waiting by the front door for the first trick-or-treaters to arrive.

My long suffering wait is FINALLY over. Time to stay up way to late and be super tired on Friday...

Today I learned that scented bowling balls are a thing. And now I've been smelling all of my friends' balls. Normal Friday morning...

Aperol Sunday? Is that a thing? Can I get a ruling, @floregonian.com ?

It really annoys me when people put clearly NOT recyclable items in the bin...

I received this last night. So nice of my friends to help me keep up to date on new software development technologies.

Had friends over for dinner tonight and then we played some Jackbox games. I won half the games and @labsplaining.bsky.social won the other half. We're such gracious hosts.

Whiskey Friday is on.

Look, far be it from me to overreact to one (1) signing, but I think Tottenham Hotspur are going to win the league.

Observing whiskey Saturday, as always...

Tottenham and Sunderland top of the table, just like everyone predicted.

Who else is excited for today's season opener for the reigning Europa League champs, Tottenham Hotspur?

A couple friends got me a bottle of whiskey for my birthday and honestly, I enjoyed the gift bag just as much as the contents.

Here we see Max stalking his prey, blending in perfectly with the surrounding monitors and gaming keyboards...

I love soccer tournament knockout matches. And the women's and men's Euros are probably my favorite, I think because I can watch as a low stress neutral observer. So good.

Thing I was surprised to learn today: the built-in Bluetooth on my motherboard requires the external wifi antennae to be plugged in. I don't use wifi on my PC, so the antennae was still in the box. Perhaps the manufacturers could more clearly label it as the "WiFi and secretly Bluetooth antennae"

Found a chill little friend hanging out in our front yard tonight.

Just typed the following sentence while talking about the company I work for: "It's amazing we haven't run out of bullets yet with all the shooting ourselves in the dick we've been doing this year." That's how my work week (month?) is going.

Whiskey Monday? Whiskey Monday.

An extra fancy Whiskey Saturday. Yum! Dr. Pepper's Lonestar Hearts Club: Dr. Pepper and Madeira switched Beef Tallow Washed Bourbon, Hickory Smoke, Sweet + Torino Vermouths, Angostura and House Made Cherry Bitters

Sent a work email telling someone that we resolved a couple issues and asking them to regenerate files for me. Got a reply email with just: "Thanks Scott." So... Are they thanking me for my email? Thanking me for giving them work? Or did they skim my email and ignore my request? Thanks.

The NYC primary results are awesome and all, but I just don't think I'm getting enough credit for visiting New York for the first time a few weeks before the election.

Recreating my entire apartment out of Lego.

It's Monday, I'm working, and it is currently 93° F feels like 102° F here in the Chicago area. It is an extremely close race for what I miss most about this past weekend. 1. Hanging out with @pagnificent.bsky.social 2. Not working 3. The delightfully "cool" weather in California

Observing Whisky Saturday, this time with a tasty black Manhattan

Excuse me, I believe there's been a mistake, I ordered the LARGE pork chop...

This chair is annoyingly uncomfortable. What are hotels even doing, @floregonian.com ?

Observing Whiskey Thursday on location in California...

Garden update: We planted green beans and edamame a couple weeks ago, things are happening.

Speaking as someone who doesn't really like musicals, hot damn Maybe Happy Ending was ridiculously good. 5 stars, would recommend.

Had a really good first full day in NYC. Took the subway to the Bronx, saw so many animals at the zoo, went to the Guardians/Yankees game, and ate filet loaded tater tots.

Tonight I happened to walk by the PSG store here in New York, complete with huge CL trophy banners in the windows. Unless the internet is lying to me, there's no Spurs store here. FFS Levy.

Starting a SCARED STRAIGHT style program where pro athletes visit high schools across America to make parents realize their kids have no chance

"[Levy] says that something needs to change, but he–and every other football exec who thinks like him—refuses to be that change." Precisely! I'm so tired of Spurs doing the bare minimum when it comes to Spurs Women. A club of our stature should be *leading* in the women's football space.

Observing Whiskey Saturday as my good friend Jarmie (@floregonian.com ) taught us.

they should stay locked in, obviously, not let it drop, but I wonder if PSG are starting to look ahead to the UEFA Super Cup final against Tottenham given their big lead in this semi-final

Great moment from DMing D&D last night: Me: Ok, you go to convince the village council to accept the proposal you just presented on behalf of the wolves you befriended. Players: No, UNO Reverse card! YOU need to convince US if the townspeople will honor their side of the agreement! Me: Uh... (panic)

I'm shocked this list isn't like twenty names long with the cause of their absence being "Drunk as shit."

Hey, remember that time when Spurs won the Europa League final? That was awesome.

I JUST CHECKED TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR ARE STILL EUROPA LEAGUE CHAMPIONS IT'S TRUE

Son: "Let’s say I am a legend, why not. Only today. In 17 years no one has done it, today is the day, today I will say I am a legend of the club, lets enjoy it. It feels amazing, it is what I always dreamed for, it came true, I am the happiest man in the world."

I live and die with this team, so I'm stupidly happy right now. First European trophy in 41 years, Sonny being the guy to lead us to the promised land, and finally no more "Spurs trophy drought" talk. 💙 Greatest 17th place team in history! I may have cried a little bit when the final whistle went.

Hard same.

Fuck yeah!
