Tomorrow is going to be an exceptionally long day that will start promptly at 8am for me. My kingdom for a steadier schedule. Won't be getting one any time soon. I envy my tech friends who have a regular 9 to 5. Meanwhile it's a constant re-answering of the question “do I really want to keep making money or can that be a tomorrow problem?”

Had a great 4th of July earlier this week with a small group of friends at the new house. Deep fried all the things and watched a ton of fireworks going off around the city from our viewpoint. Also some badass focaccia was made with garlic confit. 👌

Can always tell when another wave of folks leave the bird site because my instances all collectively strain under the bursts in traffic. Might look at moving off this instance given the insane popularity of it.

Last week was insane. Working 16+ hour days to get filtration and packaging done for all 3 ciders was an epic task I would not wish on my worst enemy. Made 3,400+ cans and 33 kegs that we had to transport to the warehouse. That’s over 2,000lbs of product we had to move ourselves.

Spent the last two days slowly recovering and probably most of this week just catching up on sleep.

This past cider production week was significantly more challenging than past ones. Going to count the wins we got this week amongst the challenges and losses. Learning so many tough lessons along the way. Onward and upward!

Some of the crazy things I get to do at work now making hard cider. Moving things in terms of drums, pallets, and truckloads is not something I ever imagined doing. It’s fun and mildly terrifying because minor mistakes at this level can be catastrophic.

It’s incredibly validating to realize I had this in my head years ago and the compliments we keep getting about our branding and products just make me smile. Maybe I am putting my own little dent in the universe. 😊

In case you missed it. Great article about my new business venture and career published on Friday from Seattle Gay News....

Got my traditional Cosmo yesterday at the Delta SkyClub on the way back home. Having a Cosmo is my tradition at the start and end of my vacations or trips. Matches my hair, tastes great, and relaxes me. Also my namesake so I gotta represent. I’ve gotten so many of these shots over the years and thinking of making a coffee table photo book of them.

Goodbye @FWA and Atlanta. It’s been so much fun and I can’t wait to be back again some time. Thanks once again to all the staff who put on my favorite event every year. ❤️👋🦊

Last day of @FWA and wow, what an amazing weekend. Tons of people here I haven’t seen in years. Did 11 hours of fursuiting too which is a record. Looking forward to chill party vibes tonight and an early trek to the airport back home. Huge thanks to all the staff who make the con possible. I’ve helped run a few cons and this is always my party con I don’t staff. Y’all put on one hell of an event and I promise to return.

Also been waiting 6 years to get this obligatory macro shot. Kaiju Martini!

Living my best life this weekend at @FWA 🔥🦊🎉

So glad I got this break before the next major phase of the cidery kicks off. This has recharged my soul and fed me so much needed love, support, and energy. Has to be one of the best weekends I’ve had in a very long time.

Remember to be your true self. You might find amazing strength from it. ❤️

Happiness is: Being told by your co-founder to have a good vacation and to avoid work as much as possible. He’s not wrong. I’ve been a workaholic for the last 3 years that progressively got worse. 🥲

Time to head off to Furry Weekend Atlanta! We were being derpy animals in the fancy Amex lounge. I’m so beyond excited for a real vacation. First time in well over a year before things crank up to 11 with the cidery. Gonna enjoy this while I can. 👍

The installers did a fantastic job. Everything is also run with conduit so future cable pulls will be easy. 🎉

Got to see my first Rugby match yesterday with the local team, the Seawolves. Even with my basic knowledge of the game I was lost half the time in the frenzy around the ball. Still a gorgeous day and they won by a landslide.
