Day #6078 – (Thu., Aug. 27, 2026) – Lunar Eclipse!

I woke up after 3 pm today.  The drive, and quite possibly the rather disappointing meeting with Randy Bachman, probably wore me out. 

Katie and Bobby have been working on some Genshin Impact videos. You can see one of Katie’s thumbnails in the photo to the right.

a group of jax’s friends are working on a surprise party for him before he goes, and i brought up making a group gift for him. someone already thought to do that so we’re giving letters for jax to her. how’s this?

My meeting is over, went well, but I freaked out a bit and forgot some pieces. 🙂 Next week they are starting a pilot trial which sounds great. If it doesn’t work, in 6 months we’ll be coming back to my ideas. By the patient flow director liked my methodology. And of course, Emma made sure to let him know I have PhD in math (I had to correct that only Masters in math, PhD was in biostatistics). 😂 He’s another nurse with MBA. Seems to be the common trend here

emma texted me apologizing for not contacting me and saying she’s been super busy with camp! i’m glad to see she doesn’t hate me lol

i said it’s no worries and i’m sure we can find some time to hangout during the school year

Lunar eclipse is tonight! Max 96% at 9:12 pm

On that note, when I was driving Bobby and Dominic to the pool on Tuesday, we saw a doe by the cemetery. Then we noticed her babies on the right side of the road. I stopped the car and they crossed in front of me

I posted an article about the VIP Meet & Greet on Reddit.  ChatGPT helped me craft it.  You can read about it here: Randy Bachman: I finally met you Tuesday night. There’s a question I’ve been waiting 35 years to ask you. : r/TheGuessWho 

This evening the family found itself in the parking lot of the ferry to Power River. We went chasing a good spot to see the lunar eclipse!

I’m thinking of learning “Genshin Impact”, a game which both Katie and Bobby love. My main impetus is to learn something that I can do with Bobby since offline activities with him seem to hold quite a bit less of his attention. The fact that Katie likes it too is an added bonus!

Tomorrow I’m going to get some lab work done, or at least try to get it done, as per Dr. Rachipelli’s request.
