I read so many library books that I moved to Cleveland to be a software developer at OverDrive (all opinions are my own, as they say)

I saw this very little snapping turtle crossing the towpath trail in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park last weekend

I really like how gentle Oura's app is with me after a few nights of poor sleep
A screenshot of the Oura ring app showing sleep statistics. Total sleep is just 5 hours and 26 minutes, a few other stats I don't pay much attention to are also in the red. The big text at the bottom reads "It's going to be alright"

One of my favorite things about morning bike rides is running into this incredibly friendly guy a few times each week
A ginger tabby reaching up to the top tube of my bike Now the ginger tabby is standing on the top tube of my bike. He just jumped right up and stood there for a minute! The ginger tabby showing his probably very soft white belly on a lawn. He's been friendly enough that he'd probably let me pet the belly, but I'm not risking it A ginger tabby cat walking purposefully across a lawn from the sidewalk he'd been resting on to my bike stopped at the side of the street

It might be a glitch, but still makes me glad to have an ev
A Sheetz sign seen along the Ohio turnpike showing gas at $9.99 per gallon for unloaded, the diesel price is also 9.99, but you can't see it because the sign's refresh rate didn't line up with my camera's shutter speed

These posts lining up make me wonder
Two skeets, the first from Jorts: "I do not know how to ride a bicycle", the second is a repost about the suspect of the UnitedHealthCare CEO killing featuring an image of them on a bicycle

Does a package arriving 3 days ahead of schedule need an apology?

I saw some critters while biking on the Towpath Trail through the Cuyahoga Valley National Park last week
A photograph of a swimming nutria (I think) pulling a leaf of an underwater plant up as it nibbles on it. Its Head, tail, and a rear paw are out of the water A small duck standing on a rock in the shadow of a bridge. Harsh sunlight is falling on the water and vegetation in the bottom right corner of the photograph An adult duck with three immature ones swimming along the canal A great blue heron is standing on a log in green muck covered water. It has its beak open and looks a bit like it's yelling at something offscreen
