• I just resolved all [[chezmoi]] conflicts in [[paramita]] and it felt a bit like glory honestly. I also cleaned up the repository in a variety of ways. It took about 20 minutes and it felt very freeing.
  • I then launched [[nvim]] and it worked after being broken in this machine still; all my modules got auto-installed immediately and it felt like living in the future, which of course I do in many ways being very privileged (and remembering [[William Gibson]]…).
  • And of course I spoke just a little too soon, somehow Markdown mode in [[wikivim]] is not quite perfect for some reason :)

• [[2025-05-01]]: [[International Workers Day]] was nice, although I didn’t sleep very well and I had to pack/do things in the house to prepare for travel so I left the festivities relatively early in the afternoon after attending with friends.
• As I write this I’m in the [[Zürich airport]] waiting to board my flight to Málaga for a week in southern Spain.

• Worked today, essentially half day as I had to get a small surgical intervention — a mole that was growing fast on my face for some reason. Had to send it for biopsy but the doctor said it looked benign.
• Then I met my friend [[June]].
• And then came back home to my [[Lady Burup]]!
