Spent the weekend volunteering at my niece’s dance recital selling snacks during the shows and intermissions, and being on my feet for a combined 10+ hours on Friday and Saturday has left me pretty damn tired. Now that I’m home after my 1.5 hour drive, I’m ready to relax!

The worst part of running in the summer is taking a shower and STILL being hot and sweaty after the shower. Welcome to my morning!

It’s funny that I love Survivor and the Traitors so much because I’d be so bad at both games. I’m known for being brutally honest so I’d be voted out / murdered in both games in a heartbeat.

I’m “in bed by 9pm on a Friday night” years old, thank you very much!

Every single day on this app someone I used to respect disappoints me by praising AI. Every. Single. Day.

Sites that make any sort of noise, no. Please no. I'm easily startled and will close the page right away if your site makes any bit of sound. I didn't find it cute in the 90s when everyone had midis autoplaying on their sites and I don't find it cute now.

Got my run done this morning and I’m happy with the progress I’m making. Next up, time to enjoy some tasty coffee! ☕️

This is something I've been thinking for over a year. In my experience, bottlenecks have never been in code being written too slowly—they've been in processes. Improving processes isn't sexy, so you'll never see those on a fancy powerpoint slide. https://andrewmurphy.io/blog/if-you-thought-the-sp

Made a list of essential albums to write a potential blog post (thanks @hl (https://social.lol/@hl) for the suggestion!), but as soon as I did, I realized I didn't want to write about my past and the feelings these albums evoked. I'm finding myself wanting to write more about current or new to me al

I'm dealing with the age-old problem of wanting to blog but not knowing what to blog about. Why can’t I just think of ideas?

It wouldn’t be me if I wasn’t awake at 6am on a Saturday morning. My body clearly doesn’t know how to sleep in anymore. That’s ok, more time for coffee!

Traveled to Chicago this past week and one of my favorite parts was swinging by Atlas Stationers and buying myself a hot pink Esterbrook Funky Town pen. Love! #fountainpen

It's 75F / 24C outside right now and the walk I just took felt like the best walk I've ever taken in my life.

Who woke up at 3:30am yesterday, spent 12 hours in the Baltimore airport wondering if her connecting flight to New England would get canceled while a blizzard hits the area, and finally got home at 11pm? That's right, I did. And I'm so glad I got home and not stuck for a couple days while we get pu

It's so fucking wild to me that companies REALLY want you to use AI, that they're really invested in you using it for who knows what reasons. Why the hell does it matter how you write your code? The one positive about not having a full time job is not being forced to use AI. So, so glad about that.

Finally signed up for Crucial Tracks if anyone else is there! I'm trying to get back into listening to music more, and posting a new song that means something to me every day is a good way to do it. I'm at https://app.crucialtracks.org/profile/starshaped!

Ordered some dry rub wings and ‘dry’ is the key word. Ordered some wet wings from the server to rectify this tragedy.

At a Buffalo Wild Wings at 7pm on a Friday night. It is just as intense as you think it would be.

A great way to tell that you need a break from Discord? Closing the app but then clicking the app in your dock reflexively without even knowing you're doing it. For now, Discord has been removed from my dock. I’ll check it way less often now and open it only when I want to catch up on what's goin
