I know I said I wasn’t going to keep posting run updates, but I hit 50 miles for the month of May!

Put a chunk of my music library on my phone, much that I haven’t listened to in years, in anticipation of some long driving from LA to Seattle. It’s reminded me that Morphine had some absolute bangers! 90s Boston music was so damn good.

Excited to report I am now the Managing Editor, Tech at Reviewed ! Privileged to get to continue to work with an excellent and talented team.

Found this in my son’s bag as I was cleaning it out of all the end of year stuff. I think I’ve aged pretty well for 45, but I’ve aged miraculously well for 60. We’ve now had a discussion of how old I actually am.

For me it’s Dolly’s Diner. It was at the edge of David Square in Somerville and was only open late night, 11:30pm-5:30am. Had a low counter that ran through the middle of it. Amazing diner food (always got a burger). Friends went many weekends during high school in the mid-90s.

Yes please!!! @JLNwrites Geoffrey Morrison

Work computer shut down, Slack notifications turned off on my phone. Time for vacation.

First leg of the trip done. And I’m still alive @JLNwrites !

Catching the last of the sunset over Possession Sound.

One year is already too long not seeing you or hearing your laugh, Adam Phalen . But that time is never gonna get shorter. We all miss you.

Tonight’s office! Back subbing for the Pacific Symphony First rehearsal for the July 4th concert at the Irvine Fivepoint Amphitheater.

And so it begins. If you’re there too, go ahead and follow.

New view tonight Pacific Symphony

Audience filtering in for the show. Happy 4th everyone! Pacific Symphony FivePoint Amp

It’s gonna be a good weekend

How you know you work in tech: when you get an email saying “You could save this much in Windows renewal” you immediately think it means a Windows OS update as opposed to windows for your home.

My PC is NOT built for Act 3 of Baldur’s Gate 3.

Picking up some drinks at Starbucks and Doobie Brothers’ Black Water is on but only one channel is working so the end a cappella section sounds so bare.

Check out what the Reviewed team and I have been up to this holiday weekend. Deals galore.
