Beautiful day out on the course today. Playing an informal tournament with friends where we’ll be playing 4 courses in one day! 😯 Time to get some steps in…
I listened to Shakey Graves this morning while washing a mountain of dishes. I like whatever genre this is. Folk? I feel like I stumbled on something new to me, which is always exciting and fun! Opens up a new little world to explore. I welcome any artist/album suggestions like this! 🎶
Every now and then LinkedIn asks me to contribute to these collaborative articles, which have AI-generated content that humans respond to. This one was funny and unsettling… AI wants me to embrace AI if it disrupts my job… 🤔
p.s. This is actually good advice. Just feels weird coming from AI.
Finished reading The Checklist Manifesto by Atul Gawande 📚
Also, I started a digital garden at garden.weidok.al! I’ll share more about that another time. For now, here are my review and highlights of this book from my garden: garden.weidok.al/readwise/books/the-checklist-manifesto/
📷 Day 11: sky #mbapr
We watched the eclipse from Total Eclipse Fest in Cleveland. It was cool seeing all the NASA exhibits and being there for the official NASA broadcast!
📷 Day 6: windy #mbapr
12mph winds today. The tree branches out back are swaying calmly while the clouds float past leisurely.
📷 Day 5: serene #mbapr
What greater serenity is there than fri(ed rice)day?
📷 Day 4: foliage #mbapr
Taken at a local disc golf course last summer.
📷 Day 2: flowers #mbapr
A beautiful bouquet my wife put together. We got these flowers from our friend and her mom, they run a flower stand together at our local farmer’s market.
Looking forward to the Micro.blog April Photoblogging Challenge!
📷 Day 1: toy #mbapr
These playing cards sit on display in the background of my video calls. I used to mess around with card magic, now they get pulled down for Euchre occasionally. They also make for a nice fidget toy during meetings!
Today I learned that nasa (pronounced naw-saw) in Hebrew means “to lift, bear up, carry, take”. Seems fitting with the mission of NASA! Hebrew Lexicon
It was a beautiful day for disc golf, and then 10 minutes later… it wasn’t 😅
I love weekend days when I can stroll around town, ducking in and out of local shops with the family.
Just stumbled on https://aboutideasnow.com/ on Mastodon. This seems like a great resource for finding good personal sites to follow and people to connect with!
It’s a tough job being the human garbage disposal that cleans up after family meals, but someone has to do it.
Filling out a local tax refund form this morning, dreaded but necessary 🙄. I only worked in the office 16% of the time last year. I actually spent more time not working at all, since I was able to use parental leave. I’m feeling thankful for NASA’s parental leave policy!
My wife and I finally put pins in our world map! I’m grateful for the travel opportunities we’ve had, but there’s a lot more yet to be explored! 📍🗺️
vast expanse, stars born,
galaxies like sand, and us
pale blue perfection
Been feeling resistance to posting on here. So this is me doing something small (“literally anything”) to get moving again Do literally anything
