This is my boat. They're part of my crew. No one's getting left. Best you get used to that.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Ran into some extra money so I bought an Apple Watch. I'm in the store getting it set up now.

Ooooh.

Hey, did you ever get that mindfulness device, Spire was it?

Yeah. I was unable to get it to load data to my iPhone Health app. Dunno if I'm still going to use it one I get the watch set up.

I've been having that problem with my polar apps/devices. The sync with Health worked for a while and then didn't. Was really nice while it worked...

I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.

For task management, I have been using Todoist for daily workload but just added Trello and I'm liking the combination. Trello essentially lets you create multiple whiteboards for each project (mine are - ideas, to-do, working and completed) and move items from one to the next. For a project with stages, Trello lets me see at a glance where I am plus the ideas board lets me write down all of my random thoughts and ideas before I forget them and then decide later if they are at all reasonable and where they should go in the project plans.

I got one a few weeks ago and I'm really liking it.

So I set up my Apple Watch to give me health alerts, such as telling me to stand up at least once every hour. Today I was sitting on the toilet when it vibrated and chirped and said, "Stand Up now!" I was all, "Dude, let me wipe first!"

The new iPad Pro looks pretty sweet but I so don't need one. Looks like it'd be great for graphics professionals.

I so would love a new ipad, my OG one is pretty long in the tooth. But that's going to have to wait until finances calm down. Maybe in a year.

I think I need a new Apple TV.
