This kind of day with Ruby - some cleaning, Outer Worlds 2, and Canucks game shortly. Some Marathon technical test after the hockey game!

So many distractions from pain and bad nervous system at least!

Entire board of Rails Foundation seems okay with this. Starting to divest personal and professional usage of the companies the board members belong too, will take awhile unfortunately.

Mandolin came today! Absolutely love it. Chord progressions are a little off, but most guitar skills transferring over well!
September 10, 2025 at 12:02 AM
Finally got a shower and beard trim in, even though I'm fucking exhausted from incident call last night from 1-3:30. Time to relax and play some Mandolin and watch trashy TV

Sooo magnificent. I teared up. I lost my magnificent boy within the last few months.

Ruby has forgiven me for the extended vet visit today.. I may start her eye drops in the morning instead so I can continue getting cuddles though 😂
June 5, 2025 at 3:08 AM
I had to take Ruby to the vet for a checkup and didn't know Cinder's ashes and paw print came in. Completely broke down because it was unexpected, and didn't have time to prepare. They did an amazing job at the local place the vet uses, but it ended up being a very hard day and evening tonight.
