@Mer__edith I just read the Wired article. So good to read something positive this week after all the negativity. The accompanying portrait is also wonderful.

Down into the 40s this morning; quite surprised how much it kicked off my SAD. Strong November vibes.

Rescued an x201 from the scrap heap. Bought a new battery for it and it plays nice. They do have a distinct smell when they get warm.

Went to the North Shore to have a look at LST-325 on its seasonal visit along the river. Wanted to get onboard but queues were crazy. It's a lot bigger than I'd imagined. they look compact on all the old wartime photos. Backlit, but what can you do. #photography

I made it very clear on Friday nobody would be working today. I still get email from Faculty asking for stuff. Drives me nuts.

It should. They're great workstations.

My mum had one of these in 1981. It was even in red. I loved riding in that car.

Have to meet with some salesforce reps this morning. I've stabbed myself in the eye to cheer myself up.

I don't know why, but I get irrationally angry when people begin a sentence with 'ya'.
