Life

Saw a little bit (well: one art gallery) of Philly, and then came “home” to BA. Trying to rehydrate and get back to normal life – had a really good workout, and went exploring. I went to the National Museum of Fine Arts and watched the sun set at the Floralis Genérica. It was lovely!

Work

Intense! Finished doing 1:1s with everyone on the team and getting started on what’s next.

Media

Still reading Georgette Heyer, still re-watching Drop Dead Diva – love that show. Still plodding through Thinking Fast and Slow which is interesting but irritatingly self-satisfied.
