We took Miss Octavia to her first swim lesson today, which was just absolutely lovely. I haven’t asked her, but I think she would score it a 6/10. Not exactly thrilled, but didn’t seem to mind at all. More than anything, she seemed a little surprised what all the fuss was about. I don’t have…

I recently heard some feedback about how they hate it when I write about AI, so I’m going to try and limit it going forward. However, this one I could NOT pass up on. NotebookLM have come up with a novel way of sharing information. In this instance, our company was able to upload a…

We went into town today to see Ky’s old work, and when we arrived, Occi had done a remarkably creamy turd. The combination of the roadtrip, introduction to solids, and a three-day brew made it particularly pongy. We (almost) came prepared; and car boots really do make great change tables in a rush. Sadly, we…

I read something very briefly in my inbox this afternoon about whether Social Media was driving a rise in envy. The case was persuasive. The author, Rob Henderson, discussed how when he was a child, a popular tv show was MTV Crips. The premise was simple; people like Jay Z and Ludacris would bring TV…

It’s back to work, after a few days off. Our trip to Australia was flat chat, and arriving at 1 am didn’t make things any easier. Today wasn’t the most productive day I have ever had, but work is a marathon, not a sprint, and burning yourself out on a Monday is a fool’s strategy.

I’m writing this on my way from a whirlwind 5 days in Australia. It’s been great. You probably have noticed that the most recent posts have been rather shabby, if not downright absent of any valuable content. Well, consider this post a proper catchup. We flew in on Wednesday night, and besides sitting behind good…

I was due to write about my time in Melbourne, but honestly, the time has escaped me, and I am in no position to write the things I mean to say. Instead, I’ll pick some low hanging fruit and say how saddened I was by the inflationary curse that has hit Australia’s liquor stores. However,…

Not just a big day, but a great day. We went to a family trip to the art gallery to see an incredible exhibit, then finished with the best dinner celebrating my sister’s engagement. More to come tomorrow!

Ky, Occi, and I are in Melbourne for the weekend. We’re having a wonderful time, but only thanks to a lot of people doing their jobs well. Ky, as always, is doing an incredible job planning and executing the next few days. It’s incredible how well she pulls things together, and I’m constantly amazed at…

We all have places where we know we’re almost certainly going to bump into someone we know. For some readers, it’s the MCC, or Collin’s Street, or Central Park. For Ky, and to a lesser me, Auckland Airport is a happy hunting ground. While we had no luck this time, by God’s good graces we…
