I am so tired I'm questioning my decision making... My job is analyzing data & formulating conclusions. Today I am checking and re-checking because I'm concerned my addled mind is making mistakes. I'm probably doing really good work but inefficiently & ablating my psyche

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

The train feels like we're going faster and a little bouncier.

Heading into the office. I'm on a bus that goes past a Tim Hortons. I'm not a Timmy's guy, I'm a coffee snob,, but one person got on with a cup of something, that smells amazing.

This seems a little hubristic, but like that's ever stopped me

This weekend Jesse and I got matching cocktail rocks glasses with a J or an R respectively. The impulse is born of the same compulsion that afflicts some longtime couples to wear matching track suits. I promise we're not going down that road.

November 2024 did 2025 me a solid. I was checking out the freezer to get inspiration for dinner and found a cottage pie I put down a year ago. 2024 Ross was a G.

I love this time of year. The sun is setting and the snow looks blue in the twilight.

This morning we went out for breakfast, then walked through a cute little neighborhood to a cafe to get some coffee beans then went on to do groceries. It was a good walk. The weather was cold but not so much as to leach the joy out of the walk.

We're off today. I'm sitting drinking coffee and watching the snow. I can see the train passing across the valley. It's partly obscured by the snow and mostly bare trees.

I'm thinking about the trope of the "Crazy Russian" and I wonder if there was a similar trope on the other side of the old Iron Curtain for "Crazy Americans"?

These are the thoughts that kept me out of the good schools.

Made pasta sauce for dinner. That means cooking down wine which means rigorous testing of the quality of the wine. I'm now very sleepy.

Went for a short walk. Walking on frozen slush should count as double.

I'm wrecked.

Made bacon and eggs for breakfast. We had one egg that was significantly bigger than the others. It was a double yolker. That always feels special.

FWIW- I had a lot of fun with Badlands. It's a good sci-fi actioner. The suit looks really good and it cares just enough about the lore to be flavour for us nerds, but not so much that there's homework.

I do recommend it if that sort of thing is your jam.
