Week Notes 2025-46
Week Notes for November 10-16, 2025
Things this week
I started the week with a vacation day that was spent running around getting winter tires put on our vehicles. Naturally we did this the day after a major snowstorm; however we had these appointments scheduled in advance so there was no waiting around in long lineups.
I also had the house to myself for the week while my wife was away for work. That meant a lot of video games and a lot of movies. After going to bed past 1am Monday evening (technically, Tuesday morning) I needed to be more structured with my free time. I did pretty well, and I wrote about all of it.
Overall it was a good week and I'm starting week 47 with another day off.
Health Notes
- Got an X-ray of my foot, and was able to download a copy of the photos. I now have an X-ray of both my feet.
Media
- A week for movies. This week alone, I watched:
- Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992, dir. Francis Ford Coppola)
- Sneakers (1992, dir. Phil Alden Robinson)
- Now You See Me: Now You Don't (2025, dir. Ruben Fleischer)
- I enjoyed all of them; Sneakers was the only one rated 5 stars
- Bought a digital copy of Star Wars Racer Revenge (PS2) - I owned this back when I had a PS2. Fun game. I think it holds up
