Diary - May 18 to May 24 2024

Sat May 18 2024

Sleep 0300 to 1000 (7 hours)

  • Christopher Jr had his first communion today which is an important Catholic event. Marina and kids flew in for the day. Jessica and her kids and mom were here. My mom and dad drove in for the day. There was Mexican food from Chavez Market afterwards.

Sun May 19 2024

Sleep 0200 to 0300, 0900 to 1200, two 30-min naps (5 hours)

  • D&D session 13 at W3's house. We got a couple of hours (CJr and Corina not present) then Jonathan wanted to go to the park and we were there for over an hour.
  • I had to record the session on my iPhone. Also had two of the Laser Kitten sessions recorded there. Voice Recorder audio is Actually quite good and I don't think it needs Levelator processing.

Mon May 20 2024

Sleep 0200 to 1000 (8 hours)

  • Getting sent a replacement ATM card because "a batch of cards were sent with an illegible security code on the back of the card." Sure enough the security code on the back is black on dark blue, though you can read it if you angle the card and reflect light off the back.

Tue May 21 2024

Sleep 0730 to 1130, 1700 to 1900 (6 hours)


Wed May 22 2024

Sleep 0030 to 0900 (8-1/2 hours)

  • HOA special meeting where vendor presented a couple of designs for the courtyard. Both are quite nice and better than I expected. For some reason I was expecting a bunch of cardboard cutouts of trees and shrubs but this is a good amount of foliage with benches.

Thu May 23 2024

Sleep 0130 to 0600 (4-1/2 hours)

  • Oh, A+ Mailboxes & More moved locations (use them for notary service). It's across the street from my local Safeway. 30m walk instead of 10m. Guess I'll try tomorrow and go grocery shopping.

Fri May 24 2024

Sleep 2200 to 0300, 0800 to 1100 (8 hours)

  • One thing I kind of like is that when you buy a product on itch.io you get signed up to a mailing list for that product so you can get notices if the product is updated or very similar. But if you have several products from a company and they want to send out a news blast you get several notices. It'd be nice if itch.io recognized that use case and not send multiple emails... And generically it'd be nice if companies didn't use product mailing lists (e.g. Kickstarter and BackerKit have similar one-email-list-per-product) for general announcements.
