Welcome to the Rebellion

Sunday.  22nd.  Cooked some roast chicken, brussels sprouts and a blue cheese cauliflower bake for dinner.  It sure makes a difference cooking the chicken "upside down" - because the breast meat cooks in juices and so it doesn't dry out as much.  Much more betterer.

DS9 4.16, then Lego Masters 7.7.

Monday.  Slept okish I think.

The mini capsicum plant finally succumbed to the sub-zero temperatures!

Busy day again. Cooked up leftover chicken with some mushrooms, bok choy, yellow curry paste, ginger paste, garlic paste, and Greek yoghurt (I didn't have any coconut cream in the house).

Andor 2.7. Photo culling and picking.

Tuesday.  Took a while to get to sleep and woke up very early hrmmm. Another crazy busy day. Cooked up the last of the leftover chicken with half a cauliflower, cream, lemon juice, dill and some Greek yoghurt (didn't have much cream).  I probably should have let it reduce some more, but I was hungry!

Andor 2.8 then computer backups. Been thinking about life and death recently. And am I the only one that's worried about nuclear war? If I die what is to become of all my photos? Will anyone ever see them? Or care? Is there any point in trying to save them from the EMP apocalypse? And what is the meaning of life really? To know Christ and to make him known. I'm not very good at that.

Wednesday.  Slept mostly okish. A day of interruptions stopping me from getting any work done (of which there was still tonnes to do). After 17:00 it got quiet and I had an hour of peace which I used to finally get to my inbox under control (it's been out of control for a couple of weeks). So that was nice. Pizzas for dinner, must be Thursday. Wait, what?

Then Andor 2.9. No time for Legomasters, nearly bed time sigh.

Thursday.  Busy day again. After drinks was a trivia night. We might have won. Whoops. But the good thing was they decided in advance that the last place table should run the next one which was a relief for us. Read: me. The first round was called Geospatial, which was Google Earth shots of various cities and landmarks. We totally aced that round. That was literally *my* round haha. The next round was macro shots of various objects and you had to guess what they were. We did pretty well, but a couple eluded us. Current affairs was fairly standard. Music was tv theme tunes. A couple I'd never heard of but Neil and Duncan were like "oh that's F Troop" haha. They did Home and Away too. Gin and I sang that one. What's funny is that I literally haven't heard the theme tune in like 35 years (we watched the first few seasons back in the late 80s/early 90s) but I still remembered all the words. We might have sung a bit of The Love Boat as well.  Aussie TV ads was also a bit of fun. The last round was dumb - photos of random people and had they ever worked here. So yeah, it was all (mostly) on the easy side, so everyone did quite well, but that also made just so much more fun. Great night.

Friday.  Slept relatively well considering. Not too many tickets which was good - gave me some time to finally fix the issues in my config dump script. Took it and ran it over our dev environment, which needs a massive cleanup. We were going to go into the city after work to look at lenses, but in the end didn't go and had kievs for dinner.

Kiev Fridays

DS9 4.17 then Lego Masters.

Saturday.  Slightly early night, but then woke up at 4:40 doh. Mostly filing Lego all day. Headed out to the club in the late afternoon - first time we'd been out in six months! Eeep! It was Chris and Ian's 10th wedding anniversary formal night which was pretty cool. It was James Bond themed, and of course there was trivia, and we might have won. Whoops. Not toooo late a night.
