A miscellaneous weekend


Not too bad. Bit stressy at the end of last week, so did some more non-computer stuff this weekend.

  • Movie at home on Friday with Pang (28 weeks later)
  • Saturday squash, watched the ball pretty well.
  • Afternoon went for an elec skate, got some sun, read some long form, did a few pullups, went the gym and had a beer at the Nundah pub outside. Was nice
  • Helped Pang with uni setup and she got fucking cranky because she has a snippy style of aggressive communication. Had a big sulk for hours, but I put away all my laundry and washed up. Did a pseudo apology and that made her happy. I was a bit annoyed because it was an overreaction.
  • HadCoffee – built the location checking google place id feature to look for permanent closure. Fun one, but a long tail of little queue, API key and misc bugs for edge cases. Learned about many closed cafes though.
  • Nice Pickleball session with a crisp between the legs winner and a gnarly sidespin one that went left out of court, then curved back in to be a winner. Love it.
  • I like that if you watch the paddle well enough to see where it’s going you almost stop time for a second and that gives you an infinite weekend for a minute. You’ve paused Sunday afternoon and done the impossible lol.
  • Right hip is sore – need to get back on that re-hab and strengthening.

What are the squash goals?

Dont’ have an upcoming tournament, so I suppose getting above 3000 ranking points by 12 weeks into the season.

Let’s say – by 10 October (after Thursday match) have a 3000+ ranking.
