Notes from the week

(Don’t call it a weeknote? Maybe it’s a weeknote?)

It’s beginning to feel like autumn and I’m reflecting on passing through a full season here in our new home. I’m excited to see colors change and to feel the mood of the city change to fall and wintertime. This sense of transition is strengthened by school starting for our kiddo – new school, new town – a very big milestone, that one. (Parents, please note the New School Year Drop-Off and Pick-Up Rules.)

Here are a few items:

  • RIP, Steve Silberman
  • I’m trying out Reeder. I like the change-up in interface. I’m not sure about the “no unread” tracking, though I appreciate the intent and the way it allows for technical simplification.
  • I’m kind of restless with my various blogs and web sites. Longing for a little more camaraderie in it all, maybe?
  • We watched The Bear season 3 this week; I can’t believe they ended the season that way! I think it made a very successful season feel a lot less satisfying than I would have liked.
  • First visits with new dermatologist and new dentist this week, and I got to keep all my weird moles and all my teeth. Parking in this city is something else, though.

I’ve set my sights on making a cappuccino at home that approaches the quality of Anchorhead’s, which has a deep, sweet, flavor. Fortunately I like the practice, because it’s going to take some time.
