I’m always late to things and so I just finished watching the first season of Reservation Dogs. It’s publicised as a comedy but the last few episodes are hugely affecting. It’s one of the best things I’ve watched in a while. Thoroughly recommended if you haven’t seen it yet. πŸ“Ί

Clear blue sky and bitter cold today. There’s been a trend, here, over the last ten years or so for the worst of winter to come in March. Snow is forecast for tomorrow.

I’m getting a new desk. The choice was between a nice, solid, Ikea desk with drawers or one with built-in usb chargers and legs that could be raised up or down depending on whether you wanted to sit or stand.

I chose the one that didn’t require a plug.

When you’re young ten years feels like an eternity. When you’re older it goes by in a flash.

It’s easy to say now but I always thought Dilbert was the least funny cartoon in the long history of cartoons.

I’ve had Covid this week. I could have cried when I saw the positive result after being so careful for the last three years. Feeling miserable but the coughing is starting to fade a bit. Hopefully the worst is over.
