Removed all social media —except for LinkedIn, which I use as a tool for work— from my phone. Instead, I’ll check in a once or twice a day from a desktop browser.

Been trying to get to a point where I can run 5K, twice a week, using a training program from the NHS. Today's run was tough — lousy sleep and too much time away from running had me pooped by the halfway point.
Next run will be better!

First snowfall in Montreal showed up in December. It’s weird that there was no accumulation of snow in November — that’s only happened twice before in recorded history.

Still miss the Explorer face on my Apple Watch. Why did you take this from us, Apple? 😢

Over the weekend, I was asked by a young couple what the poppy on my jacket meant. I explained to them what Remembrance Day means, but secretly felt surprised that this is no longer common knowledge.

Not a great photo technically, but my god Merlin has so much personality in his expressions that I couldn’t help myself.

Didn’t have any pickled onions left for my Gibson, so I’m garnishing with a cornichon. 🤷🏻♂️
Otherwise: 6 parts Tanqueray, 1 part Noilly Prat.

A couple of little tweaks coming to Per shortly.
Better iOS 18 compatibility is the main attraction here, and I’m dropping support for anything earlier than iOS 17.6 — once I’m happy that everything is still working as expected.

Quiet mornings with Merlin.
He’s always extra cuddly while I’m having my first coffee of the day. This is, in fact, a trick; this sneaky little bugger just sets the purrbox to 11 and gives you kitten eyes until he gets his wet food around 6AM.
Still, it’s nice.

Issue 1 of The Angelo Report shipped yesterday, in which I lament my keyboard’s broken G key and choosing to make things worse.

Merlin may be a pain in the ass most of the time, but he’s also a pretty affectionate little buddy in the wee hours of the morning.

Wow, hundreds of downloads already since making Thought Detox free.
It just makes sense if the app is accessible to everyone, and move the business model to tip jar/patronage.
