Weeknote #8 (20241020-20241026)

meta

I had Monday off this week, as the tail end of my “mental health” four day weekend. The time off was nice, but I’m noticing that I’m still working around a substantial amount of generalized anxiety, probably election related. I imagine this is just gonna suck until, like, February.

did

  • Exercise: lifted MWF, setting new deadlift, back squat, and bench press PRs; rowed TTh – this is the second week in a row I’ve hit all my days as planned, it feels good
  • At work, I continued to grind on converting our website from the Next.js Pages Router to the App Router - I got things to the point where I converted my PR to a non-draft state woot
  • Watched the fucking Timbers start and end their playoff season with a 5-0 loss to Vancouver. What a completely disappointing end to a marginal season…

read

  • Continued plugging away at City of Roses vol I, but for some reason I’m finding this one rough going

listened

  • I got to the point in my vinyl listening backlog where I cracked open the copy of Warsaw I had in my stash - it sounded about like I would have expected it to sound

watched

  • continuing to binge the things we’re binging (NCIS and Criminal Minds)…

cooked

looking forward to

i’m not even sure?
