I feel guilty I didn't work on a side-project today. I shouldn't be, but I am.

Just a reminder that, "You are not your productivity".

Okay, so why didn't anyone tell me about Pepsi Wild Cherry and Cream? Or that there is a zero-sugar version?

I have a new addiction. 😔

A day when you can be largely heads-down, write code, and then later code a bit on your side-project / upcoming presentation is exceedingly rare.
However, today was one of those days. 🙏🏻 🎉 😌 🤓

It broke 100' F a few days in Omaha last week. One day it had stormed most the night and the humidity during the day was naaasty.
