Nerd, silken windhounds, cats, food, gardening, motorcycles, burning man, and whatever other nonsense amuses me. Trans lives matter.
Any of my followers actually use Big-O as part of work? As best I can tell it’s learn it in college, and get asked about it on job interviews.
My first time seeing fire wicks. I’ve had this staff for many years. On the few occasions I’ve rewicked a tool, I’ve just used a bare screw & washer. This method prevents hot metal bits being exposed. It’s a little looser than pro job, but I did it myself!
Say hi to our new fur baby, River! Like most #silkenwindhounds she is capable of being both very small and very long. I love being a retirement home to these dogs.
Had an old work colleague reach out for a referral. Nice happy moment remembering one of my favorite people to work with. (Also, I’m looking for work as well)
Last night I spun fire at a Burningman party, this morning I watched the Brazil F1 race, this afternoon is chainsaw work on my back hill, and tonight is making tortillas from scratch. I might have enough hobbies.
Reinstalled the bird app temporarily. When I left that place I hadn’t added my tech folks here, so now I’m scraping through my old follow list and flipping back and forth.
Second full day in Zanzibar, did walking tour of Stone Town, and Prison Island (tortoises!) & snorkeling today.
Overnight in Chicago was uh, very frosty and were very lucky the snow didn’t mess up the plans. Had about an 80f degree swing from temp there to the temp here in Zanzibar.
Headed out this morning for a wild vacation. Almost two weeks in Tanzania! I’ll be posting some pics here. Really looking forward to the warm beaches in Zanzibar especially after the freezing overnight layover we have in Chicago tonight 🤣
Little weirdo. He regularly sniffs shoes, here he curled up and put both paws inside my shoe.
