I've been running Nexus/Pixel devices for over a decade. This is stupid. The Galaxy phones and their SIM card slots are starting to draw me.

Bought my new Pixel 10 Pro XL from T-Mobile less than a month ago. Today 2/3s of the screen flickered for a couple of hours, then went dark. I need to wait several days for a replacement now and since there's no damn physical SIM card, I can't easily swap to a backup device for now.

Every time I create a new Google Sheet, I huff about the 10pt font size and but up the entire sheet to 14.

Is this happening to anyone else? Or am I just getting old?

When your email to me starts with "Hi Valued Customer", guess what? I don't feel valued. Especially when I have an account and you have my name.

In a business, you can be personable or not. Either is fine. This isn't it though.

Kids need to see positive things happen in order to believe positive things can happen.

It was difficult, I learned a lot, and I met a bunch of great people with interesting business and military stories. There's a bunch of work ahead of me, turning @cinnamonpet.com into a real business, but I am grateful that my wife and kids were there to watch a stepping stone.
