it's been a few days since i last wrote. dog sitting was kind of fun but i was pretty tired and disoriented by the end of it, so it was a welcome relief to return to my own home and sleep for a full 9+ hours.
today was pretty hot, so i mostly stayed indoors. at the top of my to-do list was to sort through all of my stuff that was in disarray from the show last weekend and my hasty packing job from the house sitting, but instead of doing that i mostly actually played around with installing python on a disused e-reader to convert it to a little home dashboard. i wasn't able to finish the project today, but i made surprisingly decent progress considering i had to fix a bunch of things because i was using a different model of e-reader, and also i ended up spinning up home assistant to handle some back end stuff for the information i want to display. hopefully tomorrow i can get more things working and then convince my brain to move on to more practical matters at hand.
i also finished my book (the vorrh by brian catling). despite its strange start, i ended up enjoying it a lot and i now want to read the other two in the trilogy. but i'm holding back on starting any more books for the next couple days until i have more of my affairs in order.
we watched half of a really long, kind of idiotic bollywood action movie. sometimes i am very confused by andrei's taste in movies, but they are usually entertaining anyway, even if i'm just laughing at how stupid they are.
