A fairly pleasant evening π, I went down to the park for a while although I just watched that YouTube video I shared earlier and skipped reading for now. Came home, had some apple π juice π₯€ and laid back in bed for a while.
I thought it was a pretty good day but too many hours today in Zoom πΉ meetings. π₯ But so goes social distancing. It was warm but not that hot working in my truck. I could get internet at home but I really don’t want it. πΆ The nice short hair ππ» helped although in retrospect the next time I use the clippers I’m going to use a longer blade. It cut so much smoother and closer to the head then my dull and plugged up one. π Based on the results I can’t imagine I’ll be going to the barber any time soon.

Looking forward to a cool day tomorrow. π Ironically, I think I don’t have to go to the library tomorrow for the internet but I do plan to go for a night hike π in the Pine Bush after the protest at the Guilderland Town Hall. Maybe I’ll sit out back and work there. I have a few projects on tap but neither involve much data so I can do them from home π‘.
