Man, what a busy month! We’re having fun over here, but dang, that was a lot.
I went to a ton of events this month, including…
- seeing one of my heroes, Jon Stewart, do a live standup set,
- a Richmond Ivy match,
- the Crimebabies show opening,
- the RABID robot fight,
- a wedding-shaped party,
- and a really amazing birthday-shaped party.
So yeah: an amazing time with friends!
I also filled another journal; I now have another book that serves as a daily log of every single day from June 25th, 2023 to May 11th, 2025.
Outside of work, I spent some time automating the ingest of events for RVA Tech Calendar and Philly Tech Calendar, making it easier for me to lightly edit and curate them.
