Felt like I was some kind of mad supply run this morning, I woke up at 8 am ish and I really didn’t wanna get up outta bed. I was comfy and cosy af but hey had to hit the turbo tuesday running right?
Quickly rustled up those spuds into some morning fried potato deconstructed hash browns with fried eggs and a quick fire coffee. I was off into the breach with the impossibly hot jacket. I scratched the additional carry of the brolly in case I was duel wielding bags (I ended up doing so)
Minor Frustrate with freeze/unfreeze card (new feature, actually cool) at first but then all good, in and out and sorted, saw a bus go by, seems they are still running even if nobody was onboard, I’m gonna have to do some kind of run at some point, think I need to upgrade the backpack wear first thou.
Thanks for leaving me a dear diary entry last night, especially loved the laid back VHS vibes. It’s crazy to think that we were ok with ‘static’ and the date and time (often wrong) in the bottom corner on video back then and yet today it’s a sign of legacy and history, like it adds to the mood — I wonder what stuff we leave out today that really should be there?

Sometimes this super sharp clean 4/8k world removes the grittyness, I’m sure those that never really experienced the Kodak colour popping film times won’t have an relationship with it, I guess you don’t care about what you don’t know or have experienced in that way — what even is history these days for the new generation, it’s just a blur of quick fire memes.
I started out writing with some pretty hard house but it was too distracting to listen too because I was dancing in my chair, then I switched it up to some slow jazz because of the rain and then I got into this chrome sparks “send the pain on” — this is a slow bop and I’m feeling it, lots of layering hit the spot for sure, I can see where ya coming from.
It’s got off grid scamp volume in there, the main section was glorious, like achievement of something, like looking out over a mountain range or finding the most perfect lake or face to face with a deer from opening a tent in the dewy morning. Kinda gave me some futuristic prince vibes too, maybe that’s what he’s doing in the afterlife, playing out daft punk style.
It’s a rainy day all day today.
I’m actually fine with that because I’m in graphics making this morning for those additional courses, I’m like up to about fifteen now, lol, I just need to really just step through and make the damn things now but I keep going back and forth on what I want to use to make them — I’m overthinking them, that I absolutely know.
If anything thou, I think I’ve also been sitting back and watching how the marketers changed things up to really kinda double down on the new at home audience, they all started live streaming literally overnight and are keeping to it on a daily basis — guess it took a pandemic for them to believe that they could be a streamer if everyone was in the same boat, like herd immunity to getting flack that ‘you just wanna be a streamer’ vibes.
I’d certainly feel no kinda way now to setup and do a stream now if I had the equipment. I always had that overhang that it had to be perfect, right, styled, fresh out the gate but really, it’s just gotta be stable and work. Be interesting, do some storytelling — I’m seeing a bunch crush it.
Oh, you mentioned sleeping too, you know I was JUST thinking about that the other day, this like time freeze where we go to sleep and the world around us is still moving right, other people are utilising their eight hours in different ways, heck they might have trading bots making moves while they rest, to wake to see how well their alter ego trading bot of them did.
Glad you put that message out to the universe about what you want outta the day, I know you’ll crush it. Just be mindful of all the surfaces and such like you touch, get that soap situation on lock, take that gaiter off once you’ve been in a place and your heading home, rotate those every 3/5 days I think is a smart move too — yeah we are certainly at prime time peak so please, extra careful now.
Yeah no sitting outside for me today, all rainy, all the time, It’s all good thou, everything I needed to do outside is done and I’m in, ready to work and crank out some graphics — I think I’m gonna do like a 180 and work on this CLI course, like command line interface stuff because I’ve been getting into that a lot more in the last five weeks and I think it’s useful for people to discover and maybe learn something new in the process.
Gotta tell you it makes me extremely happy to know that your whole family is cared for and in relatively good shape you know? I know there is all the financial current fall out but I do believe that once over the peak and heading down the other side it’s gonna open up opportunity and minds like never before — I do wonder how many people got that $1200 and what they did with it, I’d love to see people use it for setting up businesses.
Also cannot wait for us to get an LLC setup too, few things we can use that for as well as just business accounts we can literally use that for buying up property or land as a kinda shell account for additional protection which I kinda like, I’m certainly interested in seeing how it all works.
I know you pulled the trigger on that big purchase but I think it’s gonna be cool for you to have lots of stock, get that store up, nice website, some great integration and some tracking and then go hard on instagram and twitter promotion, then once you see some momentum get on shopify and really ramp up the relationship — don’t forget, boy wants that citrus monitor hit as well from some of the next products in the line up ;)
Ok, I think that’s me for right now, time to get into these graphics and wait for you to get up, I’m expecting you to message anytime now because I know you’ll wanna get up earlier, wash and get dressed and head out and get all your things done before you get back to the machines!
Sending you big deep virtual hugs today, like the ones we would have together on the bus after coffee or swims. As one of us had to relatively stay away to make sure we got off after all the beers, always a good memory, ready to make some more memories, to take the next step into what comes after ya know?
Love you,
