Yes, pizza isn't keto (unless you take many extra steps), but today is a special night. It's NetRunner night - the anniversary of the first time Tobie and I ever hung out in person. We played the original NetRunner game all night while accompanied by a Shakey's Pizza Bianca, some chicken, and Red Horse spiked with Extra Joss. So to celebrate the day, I ordered the smallest Pizza Bianca possible just to minimize its impact. And man, even this tiny pizza feels a lot heavier than it used to. I'm pretty sure Tobie and I had shared a party-size pizza that night. Things have certainly changed.
It's just as well - Tobie is busy with an online RPG session tonight, so ordering out early totally worked with our schedule. Tobie looked pretty amused when I showed up with the pizza delivery because he knew what it meant in the context of today. We're entering our 16th year of being together and there's no shortage of fond memories we've crafted together. And that first night together was definitely one for the books.
Work was still busy but not crazily so. I still had an interesting mix of meetings and interviews adding variety to my day, but also a lot of paperwork that I needed to catch up on. It was nice to get through the other stuff that I had pushed to the back burner for too long. I will admit that the Google Workspace edition of Gemini is contributing significantly to some of my work efforts, if only to help me save time. Say what you will, but there are inevitably those non-creative areas where generative AI can do a world of good. And it has been an interesting little bonus that Google finally made Gemini a free feature for Google Workspace business users after trying to get us to pay a per-user license fee just a few months ago. Crazy.
There are two more workdays left in the week and I do feel like I'm getting a better handle on the pace of things again. Monday felt a little overwhelming but today felt quite manageable. There are some longer-term projects that I was able to make progress with today and I think I'll be able to get everything on track for my target milestones.
I hope you're all having a good week despite the heat.
