Why do cats love the taste of chlorine bleach?

The closer I get to finishing up my coffee roasting book the more I'm glad that this is going to be a thing that exists. I spent a lot of time hoping someone else would write it so I could just recommend that instead of needing to do the work myself, but there are a few books for the coffee industry that ought to exist that don't seem to and nobody qualified seems to be working on them (I know at least half a dozen people who should write roasting books and only one of them has).

Accidentally left my phone at home so if anybody is trying to call me (unlikely), sorry, but you probably already know that I prefer email.

Local retired Santa stopped by for a chat, is still doing Santa despite that retirement. I used to keep his suit at the shop.

Looks like it's time to check the humidifier settings. The cat is giving me little static zaps.

If you always have a sale, it's about the same as never having a sale but with more work and increased risk of running afoul of laws regulating what you can call a sale. Maybe just sell good products at fair prices?

Found a chunk of metal (looks like part of a Christmas decoration) in my lunch today. Glad I noticed that before I swallowed it. It looks like it could have done some damage.

Considered buying bagels but the front most pack of a different flavor was growing mold.

Cat rubbing her head all over that hand.

Hit Roli's black Friday sale. I like my seaboard block but keep wishing I had more keys. Opted for a rise 49 to fix that.

Windows machine at the roaster (which I really wish wasn't Windows) needed a restart. It started doubling all the keys presses so to type in measurements I had to type every character twice, select the last 2 characters, and press backspace so the doubled event would remove the extra 3 characters.

With a new Gundemonium remake out, what are the odds of a PS4/Vita release for Hitogata Happa? I'm better at that one.

Wanted to get some of this done yesterday but deliveries would not stop showing up.

Ate turkey and birthday cake. Now I'm at work sorting out the new coffees that arrived yesterday.

Dog shows should have a mutt category.

Fediverse instances have the best domain names.

Whenever I'm about to put on a VR headset the cat runs over and expresses concern. Depending on the game I'll usually let her sit in my lap and get head scratches while I play, which calms her down.

Suggestion for next Tetris Effect patch: pause the game if the controller runs out of power.
