Week Notes 26#24

• A lovely week in Scotland at No. 2 Braefoot Cottage, which I very much recommend!
• Was lovely to get more chilled time with my parents, catching up and having some chill time
• I didn't bing my laptop charger with me by mistake, and fortunately nothing went wrong that needed it!
• Had some good walks and got some pretty awesome views - and mostly good weather, very impressively considering it was Scotland 😹
• My new walking boots were good, and glad to have broken them in a little more now
• Cookie got herself caught under a fence on a walk 😅 She managed to get under it pretty excitedly, but then when she tried to come back out, her harness got slightly caught. After two attempts, she then got anxious and didn't want to try again. After a tense few minutes - including me working out how to get over barbed wire to get to her - Anna managed to coax her over to a gap further down
• One day on a particularly rainy walk, Cookie enjoyed me cupping my hands for her to drink some water that had pooled on a leaf
• Cookie's been very soft since getting heavily rained on, which is always a nice side effect!
• Was sad to hear how great a time folks at Elastic were having at EAH, and missing them!
• Been a nice week being almost entirely switched-off, and only having a couple of work-adjacent thoughts creeping in
• Been very successful with booking our next holiday, but still got a couple of bits to go
• Did some work on oapi-codegen (largely for Rootly), not yet finished, improving the Godoc for client code and surfacing deprecated endpoints/types more completely
• Morph was particularly meowy when I picked him up - literally screaming at me - and he was very happy to come home. He's been very needy since we've got home, and every time I've come into the conservatory he's come over for some cuddles
• Had a much needed massage on Friday which was very good and a nice way to start the long weekend after the holiday
• Had a nice walk around Gravelly Hollow with Carol and Juno this morning

Playing:

• (No Clair Obscur: Expedition 33)
  • After getting back from Scotland, I've been busy with a few other bits, so have generally found that I wanted to multitask between games of Apex Legends, rather than playing Clair Obscur, which needs my full focus
• (as usual) Kingshot
• Apex Legends since we've been back

Reading:

• Tiamat's Wrath
  • So very good - I'd forgotten just how quickly it goes 0-100!

Watched:

• (No The Expanse (Season 4))
• Succession (Season 4)
• (no Star Trek: Beyond (2016))
• Taskmaster (Series 21)
  • A great series finale!
• Veep (Series 1)
