Week 15

General

  • Applied to a few jobs.
  • Interview on Wednesday went well I have a follow up interview next Wednesday.
  • Practiced guitar for at least 30 minutes each day. Full song practice got a bit derailed by the C chord. Some of the practice I changed to this week involves that chord a bit more and I'm working on my transitions.
  • More progress on the site rework but it still has a way to go. Not yet in a place where I'm ready to iterate on it while live.
  • Leah and I went to my nephew Liam's Birthday party at Zap Zone XL in Lansing. Hard to believe he is 12 years old already.

Media

  • Finished Dune but haven't started the appendix yet. I do intend to read through that before I put the book back on the shelf for next time.
  • Continued rewatching Arrested Development with Leah. We got through the original three season run and are now into the first Netflix season.
  • Leah and I have been watching DTF St. Louis and it's weird. It's a bit all over the place regarding tone. I don't think I get exactly what they were going for here.
