_This is my Now page and here’s what’s up for me these days as of July 4th, 2024. For my current Now page, go here.

  1. CLOVER Cleanup = The last few weeks have been a whirlwind of workloads to get our Computer Science curriculum launched on CLOVER by 4-H. This month I'll back out of over-time production tasks and return to being a humble Project Manager on a part-time schedule. There's a few things that have had to take a back seat in the mad dash to deadline (we made it!), and I'll be cleaning them up too.
  2. Driving in Panama = As an official Panamanian Resident, I'm way overdue for getting out and see more of that beautiful country. This time I'll there for a week and renting a car with the Panamanian Driving License I finally got earlier this year. Wish me luck!
  3. Taiko Friends = Unfortunately Denise and I won't be part of the Utah Taiko Experience this year, as it just so happens that our Panama trip (and its time-sensitive dates for Denise) overlaps most of it. But we'll be back in time for the final concert and plan to hug our Japanese drumming friends silly before they go back home.
  4. Going Keto = Every so often, shifting to ketones is a good idea for me. My body responds really well to it. I start with a 60hr fast, then do Vegan Keto for a week or so, then phase in animal fats. This time for 2.5 weeks, with 2 cheat days (4th of July holiday & a funeral I'm helping coordinate).
  5. Re-launching Sam-Rogers.com = I've been talking about getting this site back online for a year. This month, it gets done! That's me for now!
