Jon Stewart’s February 24th The Daily Show Monologue was perfect.

I really hope the Sigma BF comes with a printed version of this catalogue and has very nice paper - www.sigma-global.com/en/suppor…

Baby’s first Bicycle Ride (35F outside). We only did 6 miles but she was all giggles.

Well screw it. I ordered a Sigma BF. Sigh. I don’t have any lenses for it so time to setup some eBay Alerts. I have until April.

I’ve almost ordered the new Sigma BF camera 4 times today and it’s just now noon. I want one but have to resist until reviews come in.

Taxes are done. So much paperwork.

No Micro.blog but this is a great step. It’s awesome seeing federated networks featured on a global news show.

Alright. Ready for 2025 entertainment. MLB.tv for SFGIANTS purchased and MotoGP for 2025 also purchased. With ESPN+, I’m casually set for plenty to watch.

It’s Friday (woo) and I have a lot to get done but I do have some slight low back pain. I need to carve out time to row and do some weight lifting this weekend.

I got Top Rope certified at the climbing gym. I learned how to operate a belay tonight. That was a lot of fun. Now I just need a friend to climb with. The instructor was my buddy but he did say “usually people don’t go to this class alone” yeah, I get it. I have no friends.

The store is VERY busy 10 associates running drive-thru and preparing mobile / delivery orders but their customers are either in and out in 30 seconds or driving by. This much square footage is not necessary. I’d miss it though.

Large corps must be rethinking their footprint and staffing needs. I’ve been in this local starbucks a lot lately and I’m the only person sitting in this cafe that seats 50 people drinking a coffee and the only person in the last hour who has gone up to the POS to buy a coffee.

DPReview, “If you are into photography, this isn’t the iPhone for you” It has the same 1x/2x sensor as the iPhone 16 Pro with Night Mode, 4K,60FPS and Portraits?but isn’t good enough for photographers? www.dpreview.com/news/5032…

I’m lucky to be one of the millions of people who didn’t spend nearly a grand on the Humane Ai Pin. A one week notice that it’s a paperweight is really hard to stomach. Worst case scenario isn’t being out $1000+ USD for those who bought one but losing this after you …

Well, it’s Monday.

We were supposed to get 15" of snow today. So far, only 7" and while it’s going to continue overnight, I’m thinking we won’t get close to that much. A little disappointed and was hoping for more fresh powder.

Harvested when I was 14.

Went ice fishing today. Fun time.

I’m thinking of just packing my 40L camping bag and renting a mini-van then just sleeping in the car to make it happen. hotels in miami are outrageous that weekend like $400 a night. Sleeping in a car like I’m 18 again. Let’s do it.

11 months ago, I purchased a ticket to the 25th Ultra Music Festival in Miami. I’ve attended the following years: 05, 06, 07, 10, 11, 12, 24. I wasn’t sure I’d go in 2025 but tonight, Heather got invited to a wedding in Florida during Ultra weekend so we’ve bought tickets to …

It was later updated but I may be one of 10 people who subscribes to the White House RSS feed and I was super confused to read they posted a memo about “hundreds of dollars” fraudulently spent every years. I was wondering why this was a big deal for a while.

Need to pick out Valentine’s Day wine. I keep telling heather that we buy way more than we drink. The cellar is starting to turn into a time capsule. Harvests from since before I was legal to drink.

Four o' Clock. Quittin' time.

After a few weeks on Micro.blog, I took some time to write about my thoughts on the service so far - adamchandler.me/blog/2025…
