Worked on an AI feature for Chatmeter that I’m hoping can be demoed tomorrow. It’s a little flimsy still and needs polish but Product wants to demo it anyway. Assembled a bunch of furniture. Met with lawyers for damage assessment. I sleep now.

Most of today was spent cleaning. After the flood, our back and front yards became a mess of dirt, mud and weeds. Even though most of the interior of the house is “done”, many things are still completely covered in dust, so we can’t move into our main bedroom yet. So for now, we’re still…

The Mongols came. They started a war for the Ghurid Empire. I lost. All that effort for nothing. I hate Crusader Kings. Tragic.

Had a nice little date night today with Liza. Went to FruitCraft for Tacos and Cocktails. Now we’re binge watching Shogun in anticipation of the finale. Fiber Club certificates have been renewed.

Trying, for the nth time, to restart a writing habit. I’ve previously found it’s hard to keep up with this habit due to my busy schedule, but I don’t know, I’m feeling optimistic this time. Since January 22nd, life has been hectic since the flood. A lot of my regular habits, such as working on…
