According to the scales, I lost 5kg over the last week. Four more weeks of that (unlikely, but 🤞) and I’ll hit my weight goal.
While I was waiting to get my vaccine, there was a constant stream of people checking out the shelf of products marked “[will] help you sleep better.” I thought that was interesting in the context of my two posts from this morning.
Just had my annual flu vaccine. Even if my work wasn’t paying for it, I’d probably get it anyway, as vaccines are good.
I just had to walk out of the office because the three different conversations happening around me became overwhelming. This is your periodic reminder that open plan offices suck.
On the subject of lack of sleep.
I had a bad night’s sleep, and have been awake since the early hours of the morning, so I’m already starting to flag. Today is probably going to be very long.
Whoops! There goes Twitter, pulling a Facebook 🙃
There are a lot of managerial visitors to our office today —or as I put it to my PM: “there are more organ-grinders than monkeys.”
I snuck a taste of the cheesecake bites I made yesterday, and I’m going to have to make some more because they’re pretty much perfect.
“Dark mode” for this site has been one of those things on my todo list for a while. The in-development theme I’m working on has been built from the ground up to support it through the use of media queries and CSS custom properties — but I hadn’t actually implemented it.

My local grocery store has started to sell its own-brand plant-based burgers. I really want to try them, but I’ll have to wait until I’m on an “off keto” cycle, as they’re relatively high in carbs. It’s amazing and encouraging how quickly the newer plant-based “meat alternatives” are becoming mainstream.
After work I’m going to try my hand at making some mini keto cheesecake bites. I ❤️ cheesecake.
Some of the trees across from my office window look like they’re being blown horizontal by the wind, which is going to make the walking part of my trip to the dentist fun.
