+Last update: 8 Jan 2024 • from our home in Uptown Westerville
+
+I'm getting a house cleaned up and prepped to sell (not the one in Uptown where I'm seated now), which hopefully will get sold before summer. 
+
+## Reading
+
+Working through the _Murderbot Diaries_, since I've heard great things. I'm also eagerly anticipating _Alecto the Ninth_ from Tamsyn Muir.
+
+## Software
+
+I'm building Jackbox-style games in Elixir, both as a means to keep up to date with [Phoenix and LiveView](https://phoenixframework.org) and also just for funzies.
+
+## Music
+
+Not much, just getting my hands around Cubase and recording from a bunch of MIDI sources so far.
