Spent Sunday through Friday in Austin, for work. It was mostly fine, but the weather was kinda meh, and I didn’t manage to get much of anywhere beyond work and hotel. I think next time I’m going to stay downtown and tolerate the time lost to commuting, because at least that way I can get out in the evening and walk around a bit.

One of those, “what did I even do?” kinda weeks …but as I write up the “did” section below, I’m realizing I did quite a bit.

This week was both an on-call rotation for me, and managing the periodic maintenance software release. That was enough. (Also, it turns out that probably mentally unstable politicians making not-that-veiled threats about nuking other countries is not great for my mental health, so …this week was a lot, y’all.)

work continues to be pretty all-consuming …as does the greater world, really. if shit could just stop for, like, a week or two, that would be super.

I was off Wednesday-Friday of this week; TheWife had the whole week off. It was nice to be able to relax and work on some stuff around the house, and to pretty much completely disconnect from work.
