Then: 8.24.24
Posts in the “Then” category were originally shared on my “Now” page.
The start to the school year continues. I had my first grad school class of the semester this week. Looking forward to learning more about qualitative methods. Liz starts her Ph.D. class this week and the kids' school is in full swing.
Feels
- Tired. After the summer, getting back into a routine has been tough. Waking up earlier. Going to bed earlier. Longer drive and more traffic. It’s exhausting, but I know it will get better.
- Grateful for some cooler weather. Most summers in Columbia, South Carolina are hot, but this summer has been brutal. I’m looking forward to being able to comfortably hang out on our back deck and enjoy some cooler weather.
- I’m pumped up about the Harris/Walz ticket. Let’s go.
Health
- Did a great job eating healthier this week. Really proud of myself for planning ahead and bringing my lunch to work.
Projects
- SbB Diskette was approved by MyFonts.
- My academic article is still officially under peer review.
- I’ve got a contract type design consulting job that’s going to take a bunch of time over the next few weeks. I’m excited to continue working on it.
- Lots of grad school reading is going to eat into my project time.
Entertainment
- Made progress on Mirrored Heavens by Rebecca Roanhorse.
- I found a Spades iOS app on Apple Arcade. I’m addicted.
- F1 is back. Watched qualifying for the Dutch Grand Prix this morning. Looking forward to the race tomorrow.
