    Feeling about 96% recovered from tonsillitis. Woke up to the aroma of freshly baked soda bread (courtesy of the Snook), which I ate with honey from beehives at the AWS Munich office. 🍯🐝❤️ #beepeculiar @hereataws


    The best part about The Muppet Show on Disney+ is trying to explain to the Snook who Jim Nabors is. 😂

    Did you take an @awscloud training course or get a certification that led to a promotion or new job working with the cloud? Drop me or @Vel12171 a DM – there’s a very special project happening! 👩🏼‍🎓🧑🏾‍🎓👨🏿‍🎓


    Me: Hey, shine your phone light down my throat and see if it looks infected?
    The Snook: YES!

    Damn. Video call with doctor booked this morning. 🤒


    Outcome: doctor thinks it’s viral and wants me to rest and not talk for five days.

    ME. NOT TALK. FIVE DAYS. 😳


    @mmastertheone Rodd is very amused by this state of affairs.


    @misswired @stufromoz Apparently this is, like, the minimum. Normally German doctors prescribe like a week of bed rest for pretty much anything, my colleagues say.


    @anshumalis Maybe I can get that Colonel Sanders voice going…


    TIL that the iOS Translate app has text-to-speech, this solving my need to communicate and improving @the_snook’s German. 😍☕️ https://t.co/70gfyARvNO


    This is the face of a man whose wife has been forbidden to speak for FIVE DAYS by her doctor. “Ahhhh, sehr ruhig!” 🤐 @ Munich, Germany https://t.co/NK0171540T


    @randomknits @the_snook Suddenly, he’s very talkative. Our whole dynamic is changing. 🙃


    4 – liver (not an offal fan), celery (DEVIL WEED), watermelon (never really cared for it), snails (but I think I tried them once and they were okay?). Honestly, this all seems like VERY normal food to me. I was a picky eater as a kid, but damn, evidently I’m not as an adult! https://t.co/yoItWROcJl


    @steven_bryen HOW DO YOU NOT HAVE SCURVY STEVEN


    @JessicaFGWrites I know you’re not supposed to judge picky eaters… but I confess I do. How are these people not sick constantly? That’s practically disordered eating, right?


    @frconil Yes. I was waiting for the “chicken hearts” and “natto” and “durian” tbh. But, like, strawberries and tofu?

    Learning from my friend and @awscloud colleague @jennapederson how she handles learning from failure. “Is there a failure too big?” Only one you’re not learning from. 👏 https://t.co/7mGJ5nnnQ4


    If you want to see the area I grew up, watch the “RVs” episode of the Jeff Goldblum show on Disney+. He goes to Elkhart and Middlebury, Indiana and meets Amish people! ❤️ https://t.co/YhTdB0UTg4


    @jennapederson I missed the first ten minutes – scheduling fail! 😂 But great job. Loved that you worked in the three-armed sweater!

    @emd3737 @NASA Those kids!! 😭

    Amazing. Well done @NASAPersevere! (But jeez, those YouTube captions really suck.) https://t.co/eFvQl60PjY

    “Facebook should just ban linking to everything. It would be a lot better.” Hot take from the Snook…


    @fields They’ve literally just banned linking to news stories in Australia, because the government is demanding they pay news companies.


    Really great to see @bekathwia on the @Raspberry_Pi Maker stream tonight! Suddenly feeling inspired to break out the conductive thread again… 🪡🧵🚨 https://t.co/xtz5tKe7PJ


    @bekathwia @Raspberry_Pi Flashback to the time I dragged a sewing machine to the first ever @canva hackathon, where I created a “Three Commas Club” cushion with blinking LEDs! https://t.co/cjWl5zIsRF https://t.co/o25Ul8lFB6

    I’ve seen @LareneLg speak at several tech events and she’s great, so you should definitely attend and get some tips from her! ❤️ #gdcfpday https://t.co/HgiYY034wx


    @randomknits Once in high school my car inexplicably broke down and, being an idiot, I left it at the side of the road and got a ride to school. My livid mother explained to me that night that internal combustion engines do, in fact, need petrol to run. 🙃


    @girlgerms My theory is that they’re spammers, and eventually they’ll ask you for money. A lot of the ones that message me purport to be in the military, which presumably explains why I will need to wire them money to distant ports. 😐 I just block every single one…

    @brittanieshey Me while brushing my teeth last night: “Maybe I should use lockdown to finally go full “No ‘poo” with my hair.”

    *glances at box of 6 bottles of conditioner I just ordered from Amazon*

    “Well, crap.”

    Made good progress on cap sleeve yesterday. Just about half finished. Same chart but different colours! 🧶 https://t.co/3F5Mn03zAm


    @chrismunns Honestly, it was back in 2019, zipping through green German fields at 200+ km/hr in a comfy train car while a guy brought me a beer that my Aussie husband and I thought, damn, we could live here.


    Leck es auf, baby. Leck es auf. (I’m learning useful German again.) https://t.co/a3Ru6XIFLs
