Things I have used to claim eating an entire pumpkin pie as a reasonable lunchtime activity:
"Today I had a wonderful fall quiche!"
"Lunch today was a very nice cold pumpkin soup in a bread bowl, it was a bit sweet but quite filling!"

I feel like there was a time in my life where I could just hang out for hours and not feel an inescapable need to be flat immediately afterwards, but I honestly can't remember when it was. It's definitely not now.

Reminder, if you need to write code you need to listen to the uplink soundtrack.

Look, I understand that you ‘came to get down’ (I mean, you said it twice) I just don’t see why the onus should be on me to get out my seat and ‘jump around’ 🤷🏾♂️

Apparently I haven't been on my desktop since August 7th.
I forgot that screens could be this big. There's so much room to work here! No wonder my laptop has felt cramped.

I'm at a wedding where I know LITERALLY nobody except a waving acquaintance with the Groom, who is my partner's long time friend. My partner is off being on the wedding party and I am in a loud room in uncomfortable shoes with nobody familiar. I have never left less social in my life.

Set to give the same talk I gave a couple of weeks ago tonight. I'm sure that having woken up at 04:15 this morning will not affect this negatively at all.
In completely a unrelated question, anyone know what counts as a "dangerous" amount of caffeine in a single day?
