Registered for GeoWoodstock 2025

Just registered (twice) for GeoWoodstock. SummittDweller bought the Brook Trout package ($50). Landmark is too cheap and went for the free registration.

First Dose of Wegovy

Got my first 0.25 dose of Wegovy started (finally) this evening at 8 PM.  Not difficult or painful at all.  Injection site was in my right leg, upper thigh.

Time for a New Static CMS Approach

Wow, it’s been way too long since I posted here.  So much has happened, and been missed along the way.  Time to fix that and I’m going to start with a re-write of the Wieting Theatre website using staticcms/core.  Watch for a full blog post coming soon!

Improving My Azure Blob Storage

I use Azure Blob Storage quite a bit these days, at work and here at home. Recently a student I’ve been working with turned my attention to this post from Microsoft and this week I’m going to take a crack at putting it to use, perhaps in association with this blog.

Tested Positive for COVID

Finally got to see the doctor today after starting to feel ill on September 3, and to my surprise I tested positive for COVID.  Symptoms were mild so I didn’t need or receive any treatment.

U-Post Cap STL File

Need to try something new here… I have a 3d print .stl model file that I want to share with others.  I wonder if I can do that here as an attachment?  Let’s try…

Trying breakfast at Buzzard Billy’s before “Ain’t Too Proud” this afternoon.

A Close Call Indeed

Driving home from a few days at Univ. of South Dakota in Vermillion last evening and stopped at Justin’s house in M-town to meet his parents and grandmother, plus Deb & Doug. We left there about 8:30 or so and I took the old Lincoln Highway into town to avoid deer along the road on the shorter rural route.

We nearly got hit by an impaired driver (?) when turning on to Center Street just south of the Hy-Vee / Taco John’s intersection. Fortunately for us, a large SUV (Suburban?) took the force of the impact while vehicles and debris flew all around us. Nobody was injured and there’s not a scratch (that we can see) on the new Kia, but we didn’t get home until a little after 10 PM.

Fire Alarm 2 AM

Do we get extra IHG (Holiday Inn) bonus points for living through the 2 AM false fire alarm last night? NOT FUN. Hope I can drive home this afternoon without falling asleep.

Greetings from Vermillion

Arrived in Vermillion, South Dakota, last evening about 6:30 PM and went straight to dinner at the “Old Lumber Company” downtown. Checked in to our hotel adjacent to the Univ. of South Dakota campus at about 7:15 PM and went to find the music department building (the fine arts center) where Christine will be taking classes for the rest of the week.

While she’s in class I’ll be working from my hotel room here, or maybe from the USD library.
