 Got my flu and covid shots in the same arm this evening and I am pretty happy that this hasn’t equated to double the soreness! 
 Does anyone else I follow also only use Mastodon and not Twitter or Bluesky or anything else? 
 After a hip hop class where everyone knew the song and I didn’t, it is time for me to FINALLY listen to Taylor Swift. I do NOT want to be the “I’m too cool for this music” person at the ripe old age of 42! 
 All of a sudden it's October, which means it's almost #Rhinebeck time! I can't wait for a weekend of yarn, fancy donuts, tasty food, and lots of friends. 
 Excellent day 1 of #TCDrupal! Gave my talk, met some cool people and caught up with old friends, and sang a bunch of karaoke at the after camp party. A+. 
 Thanks to those who attended my talk, "Do you still need Sass in 2023?” at #TCDrupal! My slides and eventually video will be found at https://noti.st/starshaped/ZaLC6w/do-you-still-need-sass-in-2023.

Also, thanks to @b3c702a6 for the picture of me giving the talk!

 Dance class #2? Surprise, not enough people signed up for the Jazz 1 class so we were put in Jazz 2, where we did all these ballet things. 

I have never taken ballet. 

It was… an experience. 
 Well, can't say I factored in the possibility of a hurricane when planning my flight back from Minneapolis on Saturday! Stay offshore, please! 
 Loosely related to my moth talk… would it be ridiculous of me to hire a cleaning service for my apartment? I have it in my head that cleaning services are for houses only, but I’d like for them to do a thorough cleaning of my place. Is it strange to do this for an apartment?

 And I LIKE pumpkin things! I’ll drink a pumpkin beer and you bet I’m excited for pumpkin spice lattes. Just not in August.

 @50b353e9 I thankfully have a smaller couch in my office that I’d move to in here, but I’d need to figure out how to get it removed. I probably need to call the city.
