I yelled "And BBQ sauce!" through the phone.

Well that's a first. One of my people dialed into a meeting from a McDonalds drive through. He had to pause to order 24 chicken nuggets!

One of the simple pleasures of of working from home is watching your cats having ridiculously low-level play fights in the sun. Couple of lame kicks, licking each other, rolling around, more licking.

Well. That's a new Captura format I'd not seen before. I was expecting to be asked to click on all the pictures of cats, but now.

Just found a pre-populated table in a database I'm looking at. It's full of dates, dividing the year into blocks of 2 months. It has dates in it going out to... 1st of August 2998! If SQL server is still around then, I'll be surprised 🙄

Does it count as body doubling when your kid is on school holidays, and spends two hours on a Discord video call with you while he plays Kerbal? #ksp

ChatGPT is praising me for spotting an error. Should I be worried??

Happiness is three uninterrupted hours to get some things finished. All hail the gods of work!

This is just absolutely useless. This useless site dumped me here when I tried to log in. First it insisted I needed to activate my account. They never sent the email, so I tried again. And got this.

Copying backups from a cloud network share to OneDrive in a browser, so I can download them onto a different cloud server... Hmmm... once upon a time, I could have done this with a USB key... 🤷‍♀️

I mean really, is this level of grovelling really necessary?

Wow. Microsoft really doesn't want you to use Chrome does it? I'm setting up a machine, and Edge has popped up at least three messages pleading with me not to download Chrome, while I navigate to related download pages...

Just got to use the word "onerous" in a document. I feel literary!

Looking at an old Maintenance Agreement I wrote, with a view to reusing it for another client. It's pretty well written. Well done, past me!

Just wrote and sent a strongly worded email! I didn't get to use the phrase "As per my last email"... maybe next time.

Man, I've been using JIRA so long I could do so in my sleep. In fact, I'm half asleep here, and bulk editing JIRAs to give them different parent epics...!
