Back to the grind

Today was my first full day home from my trip, and it was a busy one. I had two ethics classes in the morning. Unfortunately about half an hour before the first class I got a message from my Internet provider saying that there was emergency maintenance being carried out, and my broadband connection would be interrupted, starting in 20 minutes!

As it turned out, it was a bit later than that. I had time to start the Zoom class and one kid joined in… and then my network dropped out. I’d had time to send a message to the students warning them that the class might be cancelled because of this. The net came back about half an hour later, so my next class was unaffected, but I had to refund the class fees for all the students in the first class.

After the second one, I had to quickly get ready and dash out the door to take Scully to my wife’s work, and then catch a train into the university for today’s Data Engineering lecture. I made it with a few minutes to spare, but had to eat a quick lunch of sushi that I’d picked up on the way during the first few minutes of the professor starting the lecture.

After the lecture was over, I caught a train back home and then went out for a run, since I haven’t done any for a couple of weeks due to my trip. It was warm and humid, and I’m still a bit tired, so I only did 2.5k instead of my usual 5.

I made pizza for dinner. Our usual pumpkin and walnut toppings. And then had two more ethics classes late in the evening before bedtime.

I processed some photos from the Japan trip today, but I haven’t uploaded any new ones. Hopefully tomorrow I’ll have a bit more time to show off some photos from the last day there.

Oh, I also think I won’t bring back the listing of new comics content to this blog. I didn’t have time to do it while travelling, and it’s just easier not having to do it every day. Anyone reading this probably doesn’t need the reminders!
