This nearly didn't happen as I managed to fall asleep on the sofa in front of Dirk Gently.
Slept ok, woke up ok, although with massive anxiety about a job that I was matching at work today that I wasn't as far along with as I had hoped.
Had some cornflakes for breakfast - the milkman had been. I planned on making a quick coffee before work, but I managed to spill the drip tray everywhere whilst I was refilling the hopper with beans. Took me 10 mins to clean up.
Today was a 3 coffee day and Alan made some rice and we had leftover bolognase from yesterday and ate in the garden whilst it was sunny. Qubit got into the next door neighbours bush and meowed and then we picked some raspberries, I cut down some nettles and Alan cut down the elder that was growing in the wall at the back.
2 meetings on Teams today with clients/candidates that was quite productive and some good calls, but just need more candidates for this particular role, it's stressful sometimes when you know there must be another candidate out there, even when you have looked pretty hard. I had some shortbread as a snack.
I finished later than I'd hoped at work, but managed to download a couple of songs and Alan and I djed for about 2 hours and got thrown off a few times when it detected matching music content. He used his app a bit which seems to be working well.
It transpires that Katie Hopkins has been permanently banned from twitter today for inciting hatred, I'm not surprised and I'm a bit confused about people complaining about lack of free speech. It's not that she can't speak and say the same things, but a service provider has chosen to no longer allow them to do it on their platform. It's like if you were invited to a party, starting upsetting other guests and were asked to leave, it doesn't mean that she can't say these things anymore (although I wish she wouldn't!), but it means they don't have the AI and audience to spam it out to millions of people.
I'd had a rum punch whist DJing and finishing at 9pm neither of us really fancied cooking so we ordered our first takeaway curry since lockdown and our first ever from Saffron on the Just Eat app. It was really good and it was supposed to take 45 mins so I headed out for a quick run.
I was just going to run up and down the driveway, but the sunset was so beautiful that I ran half a kilometre up to the start of Gorse Lane to take some photos. The delivery driver arrived as I'd only run about 2 miles and for 20 mins so I took the delivery and went inside. I left my watch running to tick off 5 vitality points as it only counts workouts if they are longer than 30 minutes.
We watched Dirk Gently and then I fell asleep.
