Sunrise at the gym is a familiar and favorite sight.

Rush in Phoenix, July 27, 2017

Succombing to my kiddo’s desires for a new way to play video games (secretly my own desire, too), we built this mid-range PC for Christmas. (I’m not telling the Xbox or my MacBook yet) It’s great fun to have access to my whole Steam library, and was really fun to build! 🎮

I’m calling this New Years Day pho a success! We enjoyed this amid an afternoon and evening of board games with friends.

I spent a couple hours of New Years Eve taking apart my Xbox One X to clean up and replace this mess of thermal paste that was making the fan sound like an aircraft carrier. It even worked when I put it back together and turned it on.

Happy New Year

Picked up some good albums at the hometown record shop this week. (Not pictured: New Pornographers’ Brill Bruisers and Neko Case’s Hell On.)

Visiting family this year was really great. There’s also nothing like that first cup of coffee in your own kitchen, the early morning after returning home. ❄️☕️

Christmastime at Mom and Dad’s means tamales and eggs for breakfast every day.
