Spring-spring, spring-spring

From now on, I’ll take everything meteorologists predict with a pinch of salt. Contrary to the latest forecast, the previous night wasn’t freezing. When I checked the temperature in the middle of the night - needless to say I was up again - the mercury on the thermometer read +11°C. I first blamed the app on my mobile phone for not refreshing the data, but it turned out eventually that it wasn’t its fault. The outside temperature was high and remained only a few degrees higher during the day.

I was quite pleased with this early late spring weather and thought Abby would like it, too, during our afternoon stroll. How is the phrase? It is human to err, isn’t it? So, despite the sunshine and the pleasant, warm air, Abby got stubborn and wouldn’t move as we reached the first hundred metres. I could see her paws stuck to the pavement, preventing her from walking longer. I spared her from this ordeal and took her home at once. I was a tad disappointed, though. But as the French say, c’est la vie.

However, despite my disappointment in the failed walk after returning home, I came to terms with it. As we approached the house, the chimney sweep greeted me with a huge smile. I wasn't happy to see him because I knew his presence could only mean one thing: payment time. I wasn't grumpy with him since I'd known him for a few years. After all, it's his job; he is a nice guy. He did some paperwork, checked the boiler and the chimney, and went off before I could have said Burma.

So, after the chimney sweeper left, I buckled down to another prompt writing session. Since Ági had some issues with using AI, I thought I would write her a prompt that helps her define her aims by interacting with ChatGPT and describing her goals, then let the AI help her craft a helpful prompt that the AI can work with. I still need to enhance it further, but it is already useful, so fingers crossed that it will turn out well. I love improving my prompt writing technique.

When I woke up this morning, I knew the day wouldn't be an active one. Nothing sinister happened that would have suggested anything unexpected; it was rather one of those intuitions that depicted how the events of the day would unfold. This gut feeling strengthened when I grabbed Abby's leash and took her for her early morning walk. She was as inactive as I was, and the speed and length of our walk corroborated this theory. We ambled back to the house momentarily. After this painfully short-lived stroll with a surprisingly exhausted canine, I sat in front of the TV, munched my breakfast and slurped the much-needed black nectar in the form of a strong espresso. What a surreal still-life this was. Especially considering how many episodes we have watched from one of the currently watched series. As my system started to absorb the caffeine, switching my wee brain into the first gear, the haze dissipated over today's schedule. Harnessing this ephemeral clear state, I rushed into...

Tiistai 🇫🇮 Þriðjudagur 🇮🇸

My day was alright. I rearranged the shelves in the basement, which took me two hours to complete. I could have spent more time rearranging, but I had to deal with my homework before the class this afternoon. I had to read a story and summarise its content, write about the characters, and describe my impression. Even though the weather forecast predicts warmer days, the presence of autumn is palpable. The nights are much colder than a week ago, and the morning walks with Abby are faster due to the chilly temperature. I quite like the lower temperature and enjoy taking cold showers in the evenings because they refresh my body. However, I miss my summer sandals, shorts, and T-shirts. Walking Abby without having to don my jacket and put on several other layers was much easier. The English class with Charlette was fantastic. The sixty minutes flew by like a bullet train. I feel lucky to learn from her. After the lesson, I prepared my high tea cocoa pancakes. I love pancakes. When I devoure...

Montag 🇦🇹

We are in Austria. After waking up and devouring breakfast, Ági took Abby to the dog daycare, and I packed my things for the journey. We set out at eleven o'clock, washed the car, and hit the road to get here. The highway was busy, so it took us three hours to reach Parndorf, where we had lunch at Nordsee and drank coffee at Tommy Hilfiger. We did some shopping, only bought the necessary goods and left for the hotel. We arrived at the hotel at 4 p.m., checked in, and drove off to another shopping centre to buy other goods we couldn't find in Parndorf. The hotel is quite nice from the inside. However, the facade and the overall look from the outside seem rather outdated; we felt like being in one of Budapest's hotels. Anyway, the staff is alright, the room is clean, and the view is breathtaking. Since tomorrow is a national holiday here, we'll visit a winemaker in Oslip to buy quality wine - Passatutti. We planned to have "Wiener Schnitzel" there and spend the ...
