Dogs, walking in nice places and my boring/deranged thoughts! Now also banging on about my child. He/Him
Zach has a cold 🚨

Saturday morning looks nice so I might go to the beach that I don't like going to 😎

Went to the Liverpool Christmas Market this evening. It wasn't bad, but not my cup of tea. Zach seemed to have a nice time eating a pancake.

Wrote new JavaScript and css for the repository, designed new header and layout etc.

Go to put it in the templates aaaaaaand it doesn't work.

I am proud to announce my credit score has increased.

This is a useful and valuable metric and by no means a form of social control.

Spent six hours last night trying to get an "uppi" to display as a pi symbol. Horrendous.
December 10, 2025 at 7:55 AM
So I set up this mathjax JavaScript thing to display math symbols on the repository. Colleague pointed out that one bit of syntax wasn't rendered. Sent me down a pure rabbit hole.

Bottom line is that I need mathjax 3 and the bloody thing won't work 😭

Decided I'm going to do a load of work in the evenings this week because I have a complete inability to focus during the day.

Got this on in the background to make sure my day gets off to an awful start.

I watched so many of these last night. They are art. Get them preserved in a museum 🙏
Just discovered that GTA 5 RP servers exist and people go on and pretend to be serial killers dressed as NPCs.

Awww Zach has just been playing with the dogs for ages. Chasing after them, having a tug of war with a teddy, throwing the ball etc.

Potential spoilers for Pluribus.

There was a revelation in the most recent episode, but I'm sure Carol mentioned, in a flashback a few episodes ago, that she had frozen her eggs.

Got a horrible feeling about the direction the show is going to take with her.

Why are Labour ALWAYS trying to treat people like children. I'm sure women can get the same portion size as men, and if they think it necessary, choose to eat less. Or more if that's what they want.

Also just discovered their toaster is set to "cremate, obliterate, create coal".
Before my Mum went out she said "oh there's some Reese's Pieces there if you want some". Went to find them and they are nowhere to be seen. Simply having an awful Christmas time.

Working on only my tiny laptop screen. Going to assume colleagues that only use this as their permanent setup are actually doing nothing because it is almost impossible.

Came round to my Mum and Dad's and my Mum is coughing and sneezing, full of cold. Apparently my sister and her two children are too. I don't want to be unwell. This internet outage is going to cost me so much.

According to the status page the internet won't be working until after 4pm today so that's nice. Pure walking round the house using light switches like a peasant.

Wide awake at 4am again and noticed my phone is "connected without internet" to the WiFi 😭

No please you can't do this.

Just had my ten minutes of peace stood in the garden. Spent that precious time thinking of how people keep inventing ovens and selling them to us as a totally different and new thing.

Right SO the A55 is classified as a "Special Road". It's not a motorway, but has no public right of way, vehicle restrictions etc. but some junctions aren't up to spec. A Special Road has to have signs with the numbered speed limit.

YouTuber doing a video about the A55 road and before clicking it I was like "Yes! Hope he explains the 70mph signs and why they aren't national speed limit signs!"

What a life.

Trying to summon the energy to enthusiastically stomp around the park with the dogs.

We went to this light thing at Chester Zoo tonight. It was for Zach's birthday, but involved my parents meeting Heather's for the first time.

We have been together for 11 years lol
