Most mornings I'm up for work early. When in the office, it's like I'm the only one on my floor (at that time); it's quiet. I check social media around the same time, it's like I'm the only awake. I know people are up, during that window of time it doesn't feel like it; it feels isolating. 🤔

I've been cooking, baking and making Ice Cream a lot; and going LIVE on TikTok while I'm doing it. I made my first sourdough today. It came out well, I cut some slices, spread my homemade honey butter on, and made a sandwich with my homemade fried egg salad. 😋

I made another butter sauce today: butter, cream, minced garlic, diced onions... it was pretty good on pasta, but was better with some Mac n' Cheese and some parmesan.

It came to my recent attention, that there are few pictures of me without a beard. I feel so odd without one... That's it, I'm growing it back, pronto! 😄

IF I ever sell this house and get a bigger one... I need a bathtub that's longer, deeper and that I can really sink into. I'm not that tall (only 5'6") and thin and I can't stretch out into this tub. clearly the standard rib is not made for adults.

Sometimes you just need some hot cereal (oatmeal, grits, etc.). Thinking of I need to get some raisins to go with my grits.

Here's a handy Microsoft Edge tip that I learned recently from a teammate. If you have the Edge dev tools open, you can right-click the refresh button to select Normal Refresh, Hard Refresh, or Empty cache and hard refresh. I'm not sure why Refresh is capitalized only in the first two options.
A screenshot of the right-click menu on the Refresh button that appears when you open it while the MS Edge dev tools are active.

Something I like about GitHub Copilot is how it makes Intellicode more complete. Intellicode is useful, but often would insist/be pushy about a certain way to code that I didn't want. I would just keep typing and avoid hitting tab. Copilot seems to follow my style of coding and naming conventions.

YouTube I do not like the new layout on the individual video page. I want to see the details and call-to-action buttons BELOW the video. Info and buttons are an effort to locate; at least give me the option of having preference as a Premium member.

I rarely look at my IG.. I noticed some notifications, and all of a sudden it was telling me people in my contacts were on Instragram... WTF!!? I never gave you permissions to my contacts! I do NOT do that EVER! Few apps have such permission. Thankfully I can override that. W-T-F

A cat tucked into the corner of a window, pressed between the glass and a dresser. A hand reaches to pull them out. While being pulled, the cat looks back longingly at her happy place. Captioned "four day weekend" and "back to work"

We have a habit of when we see friends "How are you doing?" ...I used to joke in response "mentally or physically?" now-a-days it might be too apropos; yet, still a relevant qualification.
