My wife enjoyed sunset at Laguna Beach this last FridaySunset at a beach, with a large group of people gathered on the grass and along the shore. Silhouettes of people, palm trees, and a distant island are visible against a colorful sky with shades of orange, pink, and purple.

My modern need to vanquish all notifications and icon badges has bled into World of Warcraft, where I can’t ignore any quests. Over 10 years ago I didn’t care #WoW

Today, my wife (on a business trip) photographed the Southwest “Missouri One” livery at Sacramento International #AvGeek #N280WN #PlaneSpotting #KSMF A view out an airport terminal window with a clear view of the tarmac and a jet bridge. Ground crew and equipment surround a Southwest Airlines plane in Missouri One livery near a jet bridge. The sky is clear blue.

I’ve had Grado SR–125 headphones for almost 20 years now. I’ve neglected them the last ten years. Their second set of L cushions were disintegrating, so I splurged on official G cushions. They’re so good. They fit entirely over my ears instead of sitting along the edges (that made my ears ache pretty fast). #Gradolabs

Spam texts are getting feisty

A text exchange shows two messages: the first suggests a trip to Hawaii in October with a thinking emoji, and the second questions why the person hasn't responded.

In World of Warcraft’s War Within, I have made it to Dornogal. My Druid hasn’t died yet. Not sure if that means I’m badass or that first part of the game is purposefully easy to solo 🤔 Enjoying it so far #WoW

FlightFactor 777v2 Release is “Imminent”

The FlightFactor 777v2 has been in development for a staggering period of time

I say this as someone that doesn’t want to interact with fake people, I think they spent way too much time on the crew simulation. #XPlane12 #FlightSim #AvGeek

I just learned about Follower Dungeons in World of Warcraft. Being able to now play the game solo, at my own pace, is very tempting. I’m happy to see WoW is available for Macs #WoW #macOS

Got the new Covid vaccine tonight

Asian pears are ready for fresh eating! The yellow ones are New Century and the brown ones are Hosui. Our nectarines were hammered by the heat and recently got bug infested. But we harvested what we could & cooked them down. #HomeOrchard #AsianPears A collection of yellow and brown Asian pears placed in a clear plastic bowl.
