• Up early; leftover fruit salad for breakfast. Mmmmm.
  • Spent most of the day researching an issue for work that I later found out was not an issue. Mildly annoying, but so was the issue. Glad to be rid of it.
  • Took a crowbar and a hand saw to the little wooden platform next to the downstairs toilet. There must be 50 nails in this thing and at least a dozen screws HOLDING IT TO THE WALL. It’s supposed to be a foot rest since the toilet is sitting up on a tank. Two hours of effort and I only got half of the thing dismantled. I have no idea what the person who built this was thinking but I’d like to give them a piece of my mind some time.
  • Took the edge off of my frustration with some pierogi with seasoned salt, some Flying Dog IPA, and some Mass Effect.

  • Down the stairs; to work.
  • Short call with manager and mentor to get me rolling on a new project. My current task is to try to duplicate some software shenanigans from a previous project and document how to do it for posterity.
  • Final guitar lesson of the season. Rehashed some 12-bar blues and boogie-woogie. A few minutes of one-on-one time with the instructor to go over Jeffrey Gaines’ version of “In Your Eyes” by Peter Gabriel. Pretty interesting cover, and much easier to play than the original.
