We're cat-sitting this giant handsome fella for the next 10 days or so!

Pros: very friendly, likes yelling at birds, well-mannered.

Cons: I am allergic to cats. My eyes itch.

I'll bet this person is real fun at parties. "I am AI", gross.

(Sorry this is so dark, not sure what happened there).

For once, electricity isn't the most dangerous part of the job.

I cannot stop acquiring tubes. Toeing the line between "quirky enthusiast" and "filthy hoarder" here.

Don't know anything about these three, except that they're pulled from old arcade machines. One of the large ones has substantial burn-in but may still be useful for something. The other two look to be in great condition... if I can figure out how to power them and get them a useable video signal.

My neighbor came through, and now I have my very own Zip drive!

Can't wait to start saving up to 100MB of data at a time. This feels like the future.

I'm sorry that working on cars isn't more exciting, friendo.

This picture is a few years old, back when we had a pair of foxes who were ENTIRELY comfortable around humans. They'd just would come up to the house and hang out and watch us do stuff.

Sadly the disappeared during a huge blizzard last winter and we haven't seen them since.

Flashback to the time I accidentally submitted an MLP birthday fic I wrote for a friend instead of my resume.

I didn't get the job.

My goals are beyond your comprehension.

Time to do something about this extra 25lbs I'm hauling around. Tried intermittent fasting but wasn't having much luck (plus my partner missed having dinner with me). So I'm going to do a few months of the keto diet instead, starting yesterday.

Last time I did keto I lost 20lbs in just under 3 months, so I figure if I can hold out for 4 months I'll hit my target weight. Then the goal is to ease off the diet while stepping up my cardio. It's easier to move 195lbs around versus my current 220.

Good news: don't feel hungry at all. Big breakfast of ham, mayo, avocado, almonds, and exactly 1 slice of whole grain sugarfree bread (12g net carbs; 16g net carbs for the whole meal, goal of <40g today).

Bad news: after about 36 hours I already have the brain fog and mild keto flu symptoms.

Wish me luck!
