Week of August 9 😔 Nick went back home to Portland on Tuesday. I hate that he’s gone and I miss him terribly. 🎧 Somewhat related, I did what I do every time the twins leave, and spent money on something I’d been eyeing for a while but definitely don’t need. Last year it was the Milky Way . This year, it’s a new pair of Beats Studio Pro. In fairness, I gave my previous pair (which were the same)…
This definitely "Didn't Suck" After hearing great things about the place for a few years, and my brother swearing their “Didn’t Suck” cheesesteak is one the best Philly cheesesteaks that he’s ever had, we decided on a whim to drive down to SMP Mini Mart (ugh, I hate that their “site” is a Facebook page) and try it for ourselves. We got there at around 6:30 and they were slammed . We were told…
It’s Ozzy the camel! 🐪 He’s adorable even when blurry OH HAI We also got some ice cream and I ogled a sweet Corvette. Not a bad night! Heisler’s Dairy Bar Vroom vroooom!
Over the past couple of weeks, Olly has been adding new features to Pagecord at an incredibly rapid pace. Recent additions include comments , search , and now the latest feature: custom code . There are some great examples of things you can add to your site in the help docs . I’m currently using it to add NeatStats back to the site (which I initially lost when I moved) as well as for the “latest…
I hate when they leave 😩 About to head into security Navigating the maze
Me and Nick This was the only photo I snapped today — after lunch and before going for a swim. The sun was super hot and the water was absolutely gorgeous. Now we’re back at home and everyone is zonked from the heat and swimming. It’s only 4 PM and I could go to bed right now… it’s probably safe to say it’s gonna be an early one tonight 😂
Short one this week. The weather has been shit, I’ve been super busy with work, and there really hasn’t been much else going on. Week of August 2 💔 This week was Nick’s last full week before he goes home to Portland. He leaves on Tuesday (August 11), and I HATE when they go home 😭 🛍️ Nick loves thrift stores & thrifting so he and I spent all day yesterday hitting up thrift shops. He scored a…
Week of July 26 📱 I’m back to my iPhone nonsense. I gave Nick my 17 Pro, traded in his old 16, and got myself a Lavender iPhone 17 (again) . iPhone 17 in Lavender 🎂 I turned 52 on Tuesday and spent the day replacing the sink faucet in one of the upstairs bathrooms. I still have to do the one in the other upstairs bathroom, but that one isn’t broken (though it leaks) so that’s a project for…
I turn 52 years old today. It’s supposed to rain all day, so I think the only plans I have, apart from possibly going for pho later, are to replace the faucets in both upstairs bathrooms (I know, I know… how very exciting). Happy birthday to me 🎂
If you’ve been reading this blog for a while, you might remember last fall’s iPhone adventure . Well, I’m back on my bullshit. A couple of days ago, Nick asked me if we could upgrade his phone (an iPhone 16 through T-Mobile) while he’s here. I initially said no because I didn’t want to deal with an increased cellular bill, but after talking to him about it and thinking about it more, I decided…
Happy birthday, Weekly Recaps ! Week of July 19 📆 It’s been one year since I started posting these weekly recaps , and I’ve actually managed to keep up with it every week. They’re never anything earth shattering or even really all that important, but they’ve kept me posting something each week, which was the goal when I started posting them. Yay, go me, I guess 😂 ❤️ Nick arrived on Wednesday (he…
Week of July 12 😊 Nick gets here on Tuesday, I can’t wait. I wish Alex was coming too, but he likely won’t be coming until sometime in September. ⚽️ The Spain vs Argentina World Cup final is this afternoon. Hopefully it’s as good a match as France vs England was yesterday. 😶🌫️ Canada is on fire and the air quality down here in Pennsylvania has been ass. I feel bad for the Canadians who are…
🎵 Today's Crucial Track : "Blame Tequila" by Dirty Prescott Kids I’m old and I don’t drink anymore, but this song makes me miss those days 🙃 I woke up late and I still feel smashed My head hurts bad, and my hotel's trashed It smells like weed but the bowl's all cashed And my eyes all red, need the Rohtos fast I chase my drink with a NoDoz (splash) Man I gotta bounce back, I'm a pro don't ask I…
Pretty short update this week. Week of July 5 📝 I set up Obsidian to publish to Pagecord . As I said in the post, I think I still prefer the post by email feature, but this is really cool. 📱 I went back to iOS 26 on the iPhone 17 Pro. I wasn’t having any problems with it, but I just switched back to it full-time again from the iPhone Air. I still have the iPadOS 27 beta on my iPad Pro, though…
I love the 80s packaging. I was 13 in 1987 ☺️ I saw the Kodak Charmera pop up in my feed the other day, so I ordered one. It arrived today. First impression? It’s much smaller than I expected for some reason. I’m not sure why I thought it’d be bigger (I’ve seen photos of people holding them and it’s literally a keychain), but I did. It’s not a problem though, I like how small it is. Anyway… these…
