Been fighting a cold all week, and I think my youngest daughter has it now. She's not a good sick person.

Is it still called a man cold when the man is an 11-year-old girl?

It's actually a beautiful day. Bit brisk, but the sun feels good.

It's 38°F and windy outside. Might as well go watch some lacrosse.

We got halfway to the ship before they realized they'd forgotten an entire suitcase and another bag containing their prescription medications. Good thing we had some extra time.

On the way home, we narrowly avoided a crash from a psychotic driver on the West Side Highway who tried to weave in front of us where there was clearly not enough room.

After that excitement, we stopped at a Georgian restaurant for lunch. We got two different meals from the prix fixe lunch menu, plus a khachapuri cheese bread. If you have never had Georgian food, I can't recommend it highly enough.

Dance competition for the girls tonight, and then we get to relax. Phew.

Get one last look at this disgusting woke propaganda I documented on a reconnaissance trip years ago. I will, of course, be deleting it in accordance with Dear Leader's wise teachings. He truly has saved us all.

Driving my in-laws to the ship terminal in NYC for their cruise. I think we'll avoid the congestion pricing as long as we stay on the West Side Highway.

We did this last year and spent a few hours at the Botanical Garden in the Bronx, which was really fun. It's really windy and chilly today, so we may just head straight home instead.

It's always a good sign when a fire truck is pulling into the work parking lot as you walk in from your car.

I love the idea of a plastic-free Aeropress. The premium one is certainly not cheap, but it might be worth it for something that should be much safer and could last forever.

I have to change my work password every 90 days. I use 1Password to generate gibberish passwords for virtually all of my personal accounts, but I do occasionally have to enter my work password by hand. So for this account, I have 1Password generate a password based on dictionary words, which are easier to enter than random letters and symbols.

As a way to inject a small amount of joy into this otherwise mundane, tedious, completely pointless exercise in busywork, I keep generating passwords until 1Password spits out sufficiently goofy words. Here are some of my recent favorites:

dumpster
anthrax
fission
belch
legume
banged
landfill
flaccid
pancake

We had a work curling event today. I've gone a few times now, and I honestly think I've gotten worse each time. But it's still a ton of fun. Would definitely recommend it if you get the chance!

Well, we lost, 10:16 into 3OT. Both teams had many chances, but they got one more bounce than we did.

Really glad they let the girls keep playing instead of going to a shootout.

Best hockey game I've seen in a long, long time.

My daughter is on JV hockey but she's gotten really into sports photography, so she's here taking photos at the varsity playoff game.

It was tied 1-1 for a long time. We went up 2-1 in the 3rd, only to have them tie it with 0:17 remaining.

We're now heading to 3OT.

We bought chicken thighs without realizing they still had the skin on. So anyway, now I'm frying the skins up for the dog. She's going to love it, but it's seriously one of the more revolting things you can do in your kitchen.

What a game, and a great showcase for hockey. Hope they do it again soon.

Well, I guess Chris Kreider is making his case for keeping him in the lineup for Thursday's game.#hnom
