    I found a gift in the post – a gorgeously warm handknitted hat from @diepdin! ❤️ @ Munich, Germany https://t.co/wwJdeDzSh6


    Looked at the news and social media for the first time since morning, and you know what? I feel happy that I didn’t marinate in despair all day. I may try this tomorrow too…

    @gilmae I went for a jog. And read an actual BOOK. I’m as stunned as you are.


    @gilmae Not even! (Though I did just now read one where Crowley claimed responsibility for Starbucks coffee.)

    Today’s To Do list tasks are all about preventing nasty pestilence:

    1) Get a flu shot
    2) Return my electronic overseas US election ballot


    A few months back I created a Lambda function “canary” to periodically check the @RoaldDahlFans site. Lately it’s been throwing a lot of errors. My SRE did some digging in the logs on the weekend and saw a lot of Apache mod_pagespeed errors…


    After disabling mod_pagespeed, looks like a sudden drop in both max execution time as well as errors! Fingers crossed this was the culprit… https://t.co/7Nxqyf4Ptj

    @LapTop006 Apparently Munich usually sees some, though I’m told it doesn’t often stick. The Snook has read that the chances are good for a white Christmas!

    While I love @QuinnyPig’s snark, the feel good stories @cjwilburn highlighted in today’s @LastWeekinAWS were exactly what I needed. Small businesses succeeding! Better health care! Training kids! Non-profits! Robot vacuum cleaners! ❤️🤗


    @cjwilburn I left out how many food references there were. You made me hungry!!! 😂

    For as much as I complain about Indiana, I’m truly grateful that I get to exercise my right to vote electronically. Thanks to the @CityOfElkhartIN Election Board for their professionalism as always! 🇺🇸 #VOTE https://t.co/evORsWv8B6


    And thank you to @DemsAbroad as always for the timely info, tools, and even phone calls to remind me not to miss the deadline!

    @PeopleOfCraft I have been very very tempted by weaving of late. Would you recommend the Erica?


    @captainklein We went to the Zugspitze last weekend, which was great. But the hotels are all closing this week, which means we’ll be strictly limited to day trips. (And no restaurants will be open either, so have to carry everything with us.)

    Feeling a bit down this morning. Lockdown looming; Germany has cancelled the Christmas markets; all leisure travel is banned. Remind me again why I moved halfway around the world in the middle of a pandemic? 🙁


    @joneaves I know. But that doesn’t help either, thinking that we could’ve stayed in Oz and mostly been done with it. 🙁


    RT @GordyPls: If you’re into Halloween I hope you have a heap of fun this year. Seems like a bit of joy and fun is overdue.


    @Reidyd Not a fan.

    @aaronwalker @joneaves Actually, it’s going to be a glorious weekend in Munich. So at least I’ve got blue sky today…
