Morning Mastodonians!

#Today is finally a normal work-from-home day. Everyone else has headed out to their jobs. Adrienne went to take care of her monkeys. Rhiannon went out to take care of her third-grade students' space (her classroom wish list is still pinned to my profile, hint, hint). And Gabrielle is off to take care of her adult babies, as she is head of HR for a group, and that’s a tough job. So it is nice and quiet here. Hope it warms up enough so I can take the #dogs for a walk.

Not much exciting happened over the weekend. Went to my sister‘s birthday party on Friday evening. Woke up early both days because we had stuff to do. Exciting things, like grocery shopping and cleaning the house. But it did mean we could wrap up early. Saturday afternoon, we went to Assembly Square, fast-charged the #EV6, and had a fun cocktail at Parla XXI. It was a relatively warm evening by the fire for #martinis. And yesterday, I made a great Bloody Mary. #SNL was pretty funny.
But I didn’t watch any movies. And I didn’t get much reading done. However, I did finish Elie Wiesel's Night on #audiobook while cleaning house. Yeah, just some light reading that completely wrecked me. Especially hearing his Nobel Peace Prize remarks from the 80s, in which he said he hoped the Gaza situation would work out. Thinking about how little progress we have made depresses me. The violin scene burned its way into my soul. I was vacuuming and crying at the same time.
I meant to put a few hours in at the #SaltMine over the weekend, but I never got around to it. I want to finish up my ground truth task. I need to finalize the script and try to fold it into a GitLab CI job. I was hoping to get some feedback from the team, but I haven’t seen anything yet. Only finding six out of 48 CVE’s in the curl code isn’t great.

Be safe. Wash your hands. Watch your distance. Wear your N95 mask. Vaccinate! Boost!
