And now begins the 17 hour sojourn back home.

A day well spent. Hiked several trails at Mount Rainier with my two beautiful partners.

Genuinely the best fursuit I’ve seen here at TFF

Picture of a car with the plate “I Yiff”. Car also has a fake tongue in the grill and one light sticking up as if it’s winking.

Free time from work is finally allowing me to work on my personal projects. It also gave me the time to read their horrible documentation and see the *1* line I missed explaining there IS a way to allow custom http connections. It even supports web sockets. Now to examine the possibilities/uses.

It’s so nice seeing the Rod of Asclepius being used correctly, versus the Caduceus… but why on the entrance to the elevators???

2 weeks after Beryl, finally in Houston to assess and run maintenance. Even at a distance the Skyline is quite the sight.

I never realized just how hard it is to find “just a box” planter, but I’m happy I found this one. Indoor garden finally transplanted into a larger space. Just need to redo my sensors and irrigation setup, and figure out how to water 5 plots with 4 pumps.

Half old growth and half new purchase plants in their new home.

Interesting things spotted this work trip

A car littered with stickers. Self titled as “Waifu Mobile”.

An RV with the “Serentity” from Firefly emblazoned on one of its side panels.

Made an unexpected 500 mile drive to Fort Worth. It’s amazing seeing the generationally targeted ads up here. I hate them.

2024 Total Eclipse from approximately 30 miles west of Austin, TX. Just over 4 minutes of totality. Even caught a few coronal mass ejections. All despite heavy cloud coverage.

Can’t believe it’s been over 25 years since I’ve last seen Texas Bluebonnets growing on the side of the road.

I have made a horrendous discovery. It is several years old and took about 3 hours to get it working to ~90%... but it is a mostly operational streaming capable toolkit for Stepmania. Bot integration for chat interaction, and website for available songs. Now I want to rewrite and modernize this. 😧

User interface for a website listing songs in my ITGmania library, with song pack browsing, full text search for song / artist, with detail accordion for radar chart and difficulty metrics

After 3 weeks, still haven't figured out a better play space for my setup, but damn is it nice to know after 4 years of no play I still got it.

I don’t believe there is any universe where these things are attractive.

To be able to gaze upon nature in the expanse between civilization is a treat… at least while it lasts

Story of my life. 3 hour drive to plug in a cable. At least the smell of petrichor in the crisp cool air after 18 hours of rain is calming.

Rain on an empty field going on as far as the eye can see

Some days you need to take a mental break. I enjoy taking the long winding backroads through our ranch power districts. As a treat. I mean, what’s an extra hour on my drive to work anyway.
