[07/31/2016] On a Whim this morning, after someone pointed out this meter for the US election, Aaron decided he would use his morning to build me one. He did a bit of soldering and made a tiny wifi meter that changes its hand based on the Using PredictWise’s aggregated presidential winner data. If it switches…
[07/28/2016] So our city transportation department does different characters in the bike lanes. A few weeks ago, the Portland Bureau of Transportation director called me (I sit on a committee she staffs) and asked if I had any suggestions for where to put a Prince bike lane symbol, as the leader of the Bowie Vs…
[07/15/2016] Not much to report. Barre3 at 6AM, followed by work (making buttons and designing things and dealing with Drupal), drink at new bar with former coworker and friend Melinda, back to work, then home for the evening. We stayed up WAY too late after work. Mood: 3.5/6 Sleep: 6h,54m (10:42PM to 05:36AM) Miles Biked:…
[07/14/2016] Hard day at work, still very much learning the ropes at my new job and feeling very unconfident about how to get the information I need to succeed. Definitely not pulling my weight yet and it’s not from lack of trying. The convention starts next week so there’s plenty to do until then- we’re…
[07/13/2016] Drank coffee this morning, which I try to avoid on weekdays, but I gave it a shot anyway. Turned out to be totally worth it: I had a very very productive day at work, debuting a Kanban board for tracking projects, cleaning out all my predecessor’s random junk in my office, and knocking out…
[07/12/2016] Morning TRX workout followed by day of making sure designs got done, then came home to make dinner, and have a delicious cocktail with Aaron and finish the end of 30 Rock. We’re Here: Blur Baby Blur Mood: 4/6 Sleep: 8h,00m (09:46PM to 05:47AM) Miles Biked: 2.3 Miles Run: 0 Drinks of Alcohol: 3…
[07/08/2016] Slept in late post birthday-dinner so only went on a short run this morning with Aaron, then headed into the office for a very packed day. Settling into my second month of my new job is marked by really realizing I need to actually spend time learning and mastering the CC versions of Adobe…
[07/07/2016] Turned 29 today. Had a birthday including a great 6AM workout with Kim at Barre3 (free for my birthday) followed by a coffee. Had a good, if packed day at work, then headed to rooftop drinks at Departure with my folks and Aaron. After an amazing vegan cheese platter at Vtopia, we stopped at…

I had a long week at work, so my plan for today (after I got off morning bagel delivery job at 7:30AM) mostly consisted of 1) coffee 2) bathtub 3) Hyperbole and a Half from Flickr http://flic.kr/p/q1aVLH
