I woke up at 07:00 with a _splitting_ headache. The last time I had this was a few +months ago in June, and my GP told me he couldn't find anything wrong. Something behind my left eye +is making a mess of it. However, I promised Quinn and Marina that I'd make a _brunch_ today! I take +a few pain killers and fall back asleep, to wake up again at 11:00 with the same amount of headache. +Bah. + +My luck is low today: I turn on the Stromer bike to get some ingredients for my to-be brunch, but it +throws an error. It's been charging overnight but only shows 58% full, with some cryptic E210002 +error, which I find other people online complaining about. Seeing as it has _just_ been to the shop, +I am worried that the problem may be bigger than antiipated. I reboot the bike a few times, but it +doesn't help. Then I pull out the battery and do a cold start, after which the bike resumes normal +operation. + +I bike to the _Coop Pronto_, it being Sunday and all, and get some avocado's, bacon strips and +handrolls. I think that it'll do. Back home, I fry the bacon and my head hates me. Marina and Quinn +come downstairs, I think they may have forgotten my promise, as they start making a lunch as per +normal. However, I'm really not in the mood for _Mimosas_ right now, and in fact, the scrambled eggs +I made are not looking very appetising to me, either. + +I abort the mission, and go back to bed after taking another aspirin. I wake up at 14:00 or so, and +decide to make myself a steam-bath with Vicks vapor pellets (which contain a strong menthol syrup +which clears the sinuses). I steam it, it hurts my eyes, nose, mouth and throat (which is why I +think it works!) and my head calms down. Too bad I just wasted almost an entire day - that was NOT +an approved activity!!1 + +Well, eventually my headache calmed down and I moved to the basement to finish the sFlow loadtests +and learning spree I was on before this all happened. I wrote the story on the IPng website, and if +you're interested in this type of stuff, [[check it +out](https://ipng.ch/s/articles/2024/09/08/vpp-with-sflow-part-1/)]. I am blessed with an awesome +family, so Quinn and Marina made dinner tonight; Quinn made really delicious garlic bread with +_Café de Paris_. Interesting fact: _Café de Paris_ comes from Geneva, Switzerland, +invented by one Mr. Boubier in the titular resturant in 1930, which to my surprise is [[still +open](https://cafedeparis.ch/)] by the way. Marina made a green pesto from basil, garlic, pine nuts +and parmezan cheese, and I was pretty hungry by now having skipped a few meals. + +After dinner we sort of all turned into potato bags and plopped ourselves onto the couch. Quinn +recommended we watch _Black Mirror_ again, and since it's been a while, we go for it. We only get to +watch the first episode though (not my favorite), as Quinn has an early day tomorrow. After he goes +upstairs, Marina and I watch a movie: +[[Interceptor](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interceptor_(film))], with Elsa Pataky across bad-guy +Luke Bracey and Aaron Glenane, but with the help of good-guy Mayen Mehta. The story reminds me a bit +of the 1980s hero-movies: totally over the top, impossible action, good guy (in this case, girl), +always wins in the end, limited moral value, but some pretty cool stunts: just an easy on the mind +flic: 4.7 on IMDB :) + +I want to make sure I get a good night's sleep, so I turn in after the movie ends at 22:30. + +## Pictures of the Day + +{{< gallery-category >}} + {{< gallery-photo fn="2024-09-08/IMG_1158.JPG" caption="Stromer Drama continues: after charging to only 58%, it refused to drive with this obscure error.
