Recap
Do you remember when TV used to spend 5 min (on a previous episode) before they got into the show?
I was not too fond of that. So why subject you to it? Let’s recap in 5 bullets.
What’s happened since March:
Wrote 8,000+ words over 30+ essays on Twitter (Check ‘em out)
Scattered Kristen’s ashes on the beach in Maui
Crossed 100 miles on the OneWheel
Got reorg’d again (manager #4)
I got to see my main man Chris
SOME OF YOU EVEN CHECKED IN ON ME. <3
What I’m watching
Marvel over everything.
Loki was a fun character exploration of a bad guy with good tendencies. Owen Wilson brought a delightful warmth. It sets up a few possibilities for the upcoming shows and films.
I give it a B+.
What I’m eating
Ice cream has only one bad form, melted. The other forms are delicious. My favorite is a couple of scoops in a waffle bowl.
When I can't have that, the Ice Cream Cones from Cool Haus hit the spot.
I’m not sharing my favorite flavor. It’s hard enough to find as it is. Available in your grocer’s freezer.
Some observations
At the time of this sending, we’ve been WFH 512 days.
There are 22 weeks left in 2021. So I encourage you to reflect a bit. This is a great time to get after what’s important to you.
What are you willing to commit to for the back half of the year?
Thanks for reading, chat soon.
