Note to self. When giving baby Beans a bath, loudly exclaiming CHEESE like I'm in a Wallace and Grommit movie every time I clean behind her ears is only funny to me. Apparently. No one else thought so. Not even Beans. My sad face got her to smile and splash though.

I went to check the mail this afternoon, right after I heard the news about Dolly. Ellie's latest book from the Imagination Library was waiting for her. That became tonight's bedtime story. The perfect example of how Dolly's legacy is going to continue for years.

Today is Ellie's first day at daycare. The house is so quiet.

As a kid I used to use my own Lego to build starship or space ship bridges more than anything else. Lego just announced a #StarTrek themed USS Enterprise bridge set at SDCC, and I ran to the website to preorder it. I can't wait to sit down and build this and have the best feelings of nostalgia.

This weekend is going to be spent recovering from finally (at 37) getting all my wisdom teeth yanked. So I might as well start reading through Dungeon Crawler Carl while I'm on the good stuff.

First big heat wave on SSRIs. They aren't kidding with the heat intolerance. Like I'm a big dude, so I already didn't do well in the heat, but this is a whole other level of bad.

Got Ellie her very first @nhlbruins.bsky.social jersey at the sidewalk sale today! Now we just need the @bostonfleet.com to make an infant jersey so she can wear it to all the games this season!!

An infant sized Boston Bruins centennial hockey jersey

Today's random list of songs my brain came up with to hum while walking around with a cranky baby.... The theme music for Stripes. The A-Team theme. The Max Verstappen song. O Canada.

Fun things you learn from random Facebook posts... My @bpl.boston.gov eCard also grants me access to every other library network in the state on @libbyapp.com! I wish I knew about this way earlier than the last couple weeks of paternity leave!!

The pre-scan people at Costco are a massive game changer. Probably the fastest checkout experience I've ever had with a full cart.

I never realized just how calming and relaxing having a baby nap on you was until Ellie was born. Dada naps are best naps.

Giga-Wan Kenobi @gigabrain.bsky.social · 23/05/2026

I wonder if one of the teams or FOM will invite the @victoire-lphf.bsky.social to the GP this weekend as the current PWHL champions.

Another Marathon Monday volunteer assignment in my undisclosed location. Gonna be a good day!

Decided that feeding Ellie is the perfect occasion to do a rewatch of some comfort shows. We're starting with #StarTrek. We'll skip TOS and go right to TNG.

010

Giga-Wan Kenobi @gigabrain.bsky.social · 12/03/2026

Yes the @bostonfleet.com game is on super late, but I'm still watching. Is it because I have night shift feedings today, and Ellie is awake? Yes. Yes it is. Gotta expose her to the team early since we can't bring her to games yet.

I thought people were kidding when they said you will never have enough burp cloths...no matter how many you get. I was wrong.

I just want a USA jersey with Winn on the back so I can get her to sign it at a @bostonfleet.com game. But noooo, they're sold out EVERYWHERE. I can get any other country's jersey but not my own.

Now that we're home... She's here!! Eleanor was born Thursday the 12th and is a happy, healthy baby! She's our perfect little nugget.

In honor of my daughter arriving to the world yesterday. At Thanksgiving when my brother-in-law saw my TBR pile of baby books and @scalzi.com's latest book he asked "Shattering Peace? I don't remember that baby book." "No, it's sci-fi." "Huh, well the title's about right for a parenting book."

In today's episode of "we have great neighbors", yet another neighbor has decided to clear our driveway with their snowblower because ours is getting repaired. I know we're a month out from the due date, but Jen isn't THAT pregnant...

Now that we're getting close, I've got to start planning the "First drive home from the hospital" playlist for when Baby T is born. Any suggestions (keeping in mind I was (and still am) a Warped Tour kid?

Tonight's activities consist of watching the @pwhlfleet.bsky.social game and sorting baby clothes to start putting things in her dresser

I had no idea how much I missed this music and screen...LETS GO FLEET! @thepwhl.com @pwhlfleet.bsky.social

I'm always amazed at how confused people get at where to put their mail at the post office. The signs are very clear...and big.

Giga-Wan Kenobi @gigabrain.bsky.social · 23/11/2025

It's the @pwhlfleet.bsky.social home opener! And Baby T's first (in utero) hockey game!! A good reminder to put noise cancelling earmuffs on the registry for next season

Like true olds, we're chilling in the VIP lounge at the concert until the bands we came to see are on stage. Where there's comfy chairs, complementary snacks, and no line at the bar

Whoever decided that Pikes Peak needed to change in this week's episode...you're a genius. It's perfect.

Really glad I put my earbuds in this morning. Spotify decided that "Family Reunion" from Blink was the right thing to add to my shuffle queue as my office door is wide open and our EEO manager knocked to talk about a case...

Just finished this week's Strange New Worlds and my first thought was "this episode deserves @wilwheaton.net hosting a Ready Room"

Did I borrow some @scalzi.com ebooks from the library that I already read multiple times? Yes. Did I bring my Kindle to the beach? Yes. Is the water absolutely freezing leading me to bust out the Kindle and post up a chair? Yep!

Finally got to episode 2 of this season of Strange New Worlds... THAT CAMEO!!!

The only upside to being back in the office 5 days a week has been working through the Legends audiobook re-recordings from the last few years. I'm midway through I, Jedi now and it's so nice to rediscover these.

I've been informed by Counsel that while I can call my new office "The Dungeon", it's inappropriate for me to toss a d20 shaped stress ball at visitors and ask them to roll for initiative or (depending on how my day is going) to make a wisdom saving throw

Did watching the Warped Tour live stream push us to get Simple Plan/Bowling For Soup tickets? Yes. Yes it did.

We ordered a summer's supply of water balloons to cover our nice and nephew visiting and the annual water fight. The picture we took to send them looks like we just made a drug bust. We even have a sniffer dog inspecting them for quality control.

24 packages of water balloons laid out on a rug.

Went to see Revenge of the Sith in theaters for the 20th Anniversary re-release. That opening scene still hits, especially on a big screen. The final 3rd of the movie feels different with all the exposition Filoni has done with his shows. It feels more complete.

No Frankel on the ice for the @pwhlfleet.bsky.social game...is it rest or is it lingering issues from Worlds?
