New Diet Slipping

Like millions around the world, "eating healthier" was my new year's resolution. Due to how poor my diet is normally, the CrossFit coach suggested I slowly switch over in stages. I'm now eating far more vegetables and fruits. As well as cooking more fresh fish and meat, rather than relying on frozen meals for virtually everything.

But yesterday I went to see Ant-Man and the Wasp in Quantumania (that's a mouthful) at the cinema. Since my experience watching Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (another mouthful) was ruined by teenagers being assholes, I decided to pay extra for the first class seats at the back. And it turns out they give you free food. Not just popcorn, but chocolate covered popcorn, Quality Street chocolates, chocolate brownies, and donuts with strawberry dipping sauce.

Sure, the ticket costs about £5 more, but still. Free!

There And Back In A Day

Last week I went to Google's headquarters to learn how to make websites faster. It was really interesting, and everybody was very friendly. The person giving the talk was in a very high position of authority, so it was nice to hear the absolute truth, and not have to worry about interpretation.

But oh man, do I wish we didn't have to do it in a day. First off, after getting out of bed a 5, I nearly missed the exit to the airport due to all the fog. Then I couldn't get my car up the ramp in the car park, so it was a complete waste of money buying a "premium, wide parking slot", when you can't even get a wide car to the spot in the first place!

The flights were okay, and Google's offices are only one stop from the airport. But we couldn't stay for drinks with everyone, as we had to fly back, and then drive two hours home! I certainly slept well that night.
