Well, I guess I'm well. Still have a little bit of cough/congestion, but no fits. Actually drove into town yesterday, which is the first time I'd been out of the house, other than to collect the mail, since before Christmas.

It's above freezing and it rained last night so a lot of the snow has melted. Not as pretty as when everything is covered in white.

Spent some time yesterday trying to figure out a problem with the little Automator application that gets the upcoming days' events for the Midwatch entry. Had no luck and was planning to visit the forum at MacScripter.net, but the damn thing worked this morning. 🤷

Cory Doctorow had a relevant blog post yesterday, Code is a liability (not an asset). I think that's true for anything that has some value as infrastructure. There's always a lot of enthusiasm about building something, little to no enthusiasm for maintaining it. Which also explains a great deal about the current state of world affairs.

We watched The Roses last night. Depressing, but not as bad some of the reviews.

We watched Mickey 17 the night before, and that was excellent.

While I'm still ever so grateful that we are no longer Floridians, and I don't miss the place one bit, I'm very happy to see the Jacksonville Jaguars in the playoffs. While I've never been a huge NFL fan, I enjoyed watching football and followed the Jags as "my" team. When we moved up here, I figured I'd get the chance to follow the Bills, and they weren't so hot this season. But they're in the playoffs too, facing the Jags this weekend. One of them will move on.

That's about it for now.
