Weeknotes: No Leaf Clover — Week 15, 2026

  • A combination of shifting emotions and shifting priorities made this week a roller-coaster.
  • Worked a lot on architecture this week. Both processing the results of last week’s workshop, and something new which is in the pipeline and has an exciting deadline.
  • Did I mention I’m a manager now?
  • Restarted running: My progress is slow and painful but I am enjoying it.
  • Obanzai in Ebisu was delightful. Seriously underrated style of cuisine.
  • Taco Wednesday was a fun time. A vibe-coded game came up and we have been playing it all week.
  • On Friday the weather was awful, but I hung up my Martinitsa on a friendly tree and reaffirmed my wish.
  • We sponsor the Yokohama F. Marinos and Saturday was our sponsor match-day. The organising team adopted me for the day, which made the day incredibly memorable. After the match was over one of the mascots taught me how to pose.
  • On Sunday I forgot to buy tickets, but the weather was perfect, so after chilling in Nihonbashi for a few hours a pivot to biryani is in order: Two different styles and a lot of walking.
  • Hero of the dawn, Healer of worlds.
