In a world of terrifying political news from all over, let me say this: Ice Road: Vengeance is exactly what I needed today.
A movie poster for Ice Road: Vengeance featuring Liam Neeson aiming a handgun with an intense expression. He has visible cuts and scrapes on his face, wearing a dark jacket. Behind him is a snow-covered Mount Everedt and part of a truck with a shattered side mirror. The title "ICE ROAD: VENGEANCE" is displayed in bold orange and red gradient text at the bottom, with "Liam Neeson" written above it.

I'm burnt out, anxious, unable to focus, and overthink in overdrive. So, I took 2 weeks off work to recover. Today I slept until 10, I played a game, looked at boats for sale, got food, watched a show. I'll paint, plan a new tattoo, journal.
A reason to be anxious is: I'm not relaxing hard enough...

I've never been so in tune with my Volvo...

A car dashboard display that shows "Start/Stop unavailable" and "Outside temperature" along with a warning message "Outdoor temperature is outside operating limits for the system". Bright sunlight, cloudless blue sky, and part of a house roofline are visible through the windshield, indicating a clear, hot day.

Ok, Witness 8 by @stevecavanagh.bsky.social was such a ride. And boy, did I enjoy it!
The action is swift and there's so much going on.
Highly recommend it for any thriller fans.

A close-up of the book Witness 8 by Steve Cavanagh, placed on a striped bedsheets. The cover features a dramatic image of a woman in a red coat walking down a dimly lit hallway toward a bright arched doorway. Text on the cover reads: "THE MILLION COPY BESTSELLER" "WHAT IF THE WITNESS TO A MURDER IS MORE TWISTED THAN THE KILLER?" There’s also a quote from Anthony Horowitz: "Steve Cavanagh's twists hit you between the eyes."

So, as of yesterday, I'm a proud owner of a lovely 26-feet sailing cruiser!
*squeaks in excitement*
Oh, I'm in for a wild ride and one hull of a steep learning curve!
A sailboat with a white and faded red hull is propped up on a trailer in a boatyard under a clear blue sky. The boat is in the storage, as its mast is down and the hull shows signs of wear before the pre-season clean up. Various items, including ropes, metal parts, and pipes, are scattered around on the ground.

Lazy last day of holidays is best spent by the pool, reading another Sam Wyndham book by @radiomukhers.bsky.social , listening to a storm slowly rolling in over the Andaman Sea.
Eh, good times...
A picture of me lounging by a poolside, holding a copy of the book Death in the East. One leg is bent and supports the book, the other stretched out on a wooden deck. The scene is framed by lush green palm trees, a blue swimming pool, and tropical-style architecture in the background. A decorative stone elephant base supports a patio umbrella nearby.

Scored a major wit at work by getting approval for the WAVE browser extension by @webaim.bsky.social for accessibility testing!
Celebrating with a treat on my commute home.
A slice of marble cake with a chocolate coating on the edges rests on a brown napkin atop a red paper wrapper on a blue plastic tray table. Next to it is a black reusable coffee cup with a closed lid, branded with "BEAR MRKT". The setting is a train, indicated by the foldable tray table and the seatback in the background.

The more I read the news the more difficult it is to recognise satire...
I'll go hide with some fantasy books.

A cozy scene inside a cruise cabin. In the foreground, yours truly is lounging with a book, "Sixteen Ways to Defend a Walled City" by K.J. Parker. A small round table nearby holds a bucket of chilled champagne, two empty glasses branded with "MSC," and a plate of chocolate-dipped strawberries. In the background, a sliding glass door opens to a balcony with a view of calm waters and shore of Southampton. The room features warm tones with modern furnishings, including a patterned curtain and a plush brown chair.

Today was the last exam of the course. I would feel free and relieved if not for a sheer exhaustion and doneness with everything.
Book time...
A close-up photo of the book "Sixteen Ways to Defend a Walled City" by K.J. Parker. The cover features an ornate border on the left, with medieval-style patterns, and a central design depicting a black silhouette of armed soldiers carrying spears. The title is in bold, stylized fonts with accents in red and blue. The author's name is in large red letters at the bottom, along with the tagline "World Fantasy Award-Winning Author." The background has a parchment-like texture, and the book is resting on a checkered duvet cover

I can attest that Code/Astro is an excellent event for anyone dabbing in the world of astronomical software!
And if you're worried you don't meet the requirements, Stanford, Harvard, and MIT offer free programming knowledge.
I can also recommend Harvard's CS50 w/Python: cs50.harvard.edu/python/2022/

Got my nails done today. This is becoming a staple in my self-care routine and I love it.
I also love the design!
A close-up image of a hand with manicured nails. The nails display a creative design: two nails are painted with solid shades of blue (one darker, one lighter), while the middle two nails feature an abstract "waterfall" effect with streaks of white, gold glitter, and blue over a translucent base.

Quietly reading into 2025 and chapter 31 made me yell out loud, "Wait, what?!".
The cat was unable to provide answers, but offered judgement on my outburst.

I'm definitely finishing Twisted and here's to hoping that my local library have other books by @stevecavanagh.bsky.social

I've completed my first playthrough of the Veilguard. I may have accidentally achieved the best possible ending, and while not everyone lived happily ever after, it could've been worse.
By my count, the most people got their good ending, whatever "good" means in Dragon Age...

Had to share, because I love that design so much! My favourite nail technician did such an amazing job

@dublincityuni.bsky.social Earlies this year you sent out a commuting & travel survey. Do you expect only staff and students to adjust their behaviour or are you taking any steps aimed to optimise commuting for staff and students as well?
Who would be the best contact to reach out to, please?

Got tired of the election news, so it's an early night with tea and a book.
Picture of a book The Lost by Simon Beckett and a hand holding a white mug with black handle and black letters U, N, T on it, which is filled with tea.

The biggest win for me this year was to change the impulse: "Oh, this looks like a cool book. I'll buy it", to impulse: "Oh, this looks like a cool book. I'll check if my library has it"
