I “love “ owning a house. Paid a contractor $200 for a quote for a repair, only to find out my furnace won’t fire when I need it.

Lovely Stop Work order today.
I get to collect unemployment once I burn through five weeks of banked comp leave.
Had to send a bunch of status reports off-the-clock because it’s the professional thing to do.

I missed #PancakesCon due to teaching another course, but will be on the lookout for the recordings over the next few weeks!
Your next hard decision at #PancakesCon is whether to watch "Career Planning in an Era of Layoffs and Storygames" or "Hacking the OSCP & the Practice of Zen Meditation" (or joining Hardware village, or Lockpick Village, or the CTF programs, or getting your resume reviewed, or doing a TimTam Slam,)

I just finished seven weeks with a cohort that had been through the wringer, so to speak… which meant that I was also fair game for vengeance.
I stuck with it. Made it (through the rain?)
Tonight I got to log out.
Now I can enjoy Hacker Summer Camp!

Can’t drive over 50 for a while, but can drive the car until the new tires arrive. Yeah, the doughnut is over 14 years old, but still works. I also found the wheel lock light that I thought I’d lost, but was sitting with this spare tire I’d not needed for over 14 years.

Paid dealer to replace two pieces of plastic that were roughly $70, plus two hours of labor, plus hazmat fees to dispose of the plastic.
Paid, got in the car, then asked what the heck, to find out (today) that the tech forgot to perform the line item. (I paid before seeing the tech forgot) Argh!

feel so old, remembering the macro vision protection- removed VHS copy I had of Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure.
I still have VCRs and tapes. Call me a hoarder. I confess. For now, I’m watching MGM+.

The fact that any person feels uncomfortable on U.S. soil is disappointing. Emma Lazarus wrote about all huddled masses back in (checks notes) 1883.
“I have never been the least bit afraid to set foot on US soil,” writes Sasha Mudd. “The thought of fearing for my safety upon landing in Chicago, as I will next month, would have been absurd. No longer.”

Today I was reminded how beneficial remote work is when my child was in the ED, and I was able to address any emails outstanding during that time.
Child had a tablet, so they were happier also.

While you’re at it, might as well get the rest of the shots as long as you still have insurance coverage.
I had shingles in my 30's. It's the worst pain I've experienced, hands down. There's not even a close second.
Go get your shingles shot. Period.

I’m 46 but I had my shingrix shot because I’m worried about what RFK jr is going to do with vaccines. Shingles is a preventable illness like measles. We are so lucky to have these vaccines! I for one will not forgo them because the guy who runs government health services has a 🐛 in his 🧠
