Deadline for first version of Cape Verde project: ~36 hours. Six days until I fly out there. My calendar this week looks like a clown barfed over it, with six different types of appointments / distractions happening alongside writing against a tight deadline, coordinating 5 authors in 3 countries. To complicate matters further I'm also trying to impress and work with / around the CEO and founder of the company. Lots of balls to keep in the air. Stress is noticably present. But the final runway is in sight and we're cleared for landing. After the presentation I'm gonna stay on the island for two more days on their dime because fuck it I've earned that.

Went to Andrew Bird yesterday. Bucket list item for me, as I've been a fan for almost a decade now I think? My girlfriend is also into his music so she went along. Had a great evening, although I feel like the acoustics were a bit off and didn't play well with my noise reduction earplugs. Makes me feel like an old fart but shit's loud, yo. Hard pass on hearing loss for me.
