Yesterday, my work life was summed up in a single graph.

And presented as part of a dynamic software engineering portal team.

*******
Seeing those topics and numbers summarised, and I’m not ashamed to gush.
Our graphics are friggin AWESOME!

I know, right?
*******
I mean we produce a lot of stuff, both new projects and improving what is already out there. And it’s cool to see where we cross paths and where we add our own flare.
Note to any newbie: I’m kind of uber passionate about my job.
Hey, at least I talk the talk and walk the walk of nerd. It’s not just for show.
And I’ve the carpal tunnel to prove it. Oh, and every dream dreamt since January.
*******
For sure, my work/life balance as been one sided for most of 2025.
But give me three weeks, and that graphic is also going to include a category tentatively titled: Travel far far away.
*******
And just to prove that I’ve not been completely bedazzled by the world of x and y axis labels … below is the view outside my bedroom window the other night.
La luna. La bella luna.

It was wild, seeing the Moon move across the sky.
I’m still learning the nuances of my new place. And that was a mystical gem at 1:20 in the morning to watch, until my eyes closed again to work some more on those pesky database tables and user interfaces.
Happy Monday.
