Welcome back, dear reader.
My MacBook decided to die this week after our 14 years of relationship; it literally burned -without even getting hot to touch-, with a burnt plastic smell and smoke ಠ_ಠ. The rest of my week was also *not* particularly pleasant :D Thankfully, I had listed most of the events earlier on my PC, so the newsletter is mostly intact, but a few events are lost in the file on the aforementioned laptop. We’ll see how I’ll fare in the upcoming weeks. Anyway. I hope your week went better :)) And here are some events that should make the upcoming week a little better:
