A 50-something French dude that’s old enough to think blogs are still cool, if not cooler than ever. I also like to write and to sketch.

    My bank offers both an app and a website which is nice, but the app is mandatory for doing any kind of operation involving money (which is not that uncommon when logged-in in your bank accounts ;) even when connecting through their website, as the app is used for some ID-ing process.

    Then, there are a few not-mandatory but such-an-effing-pain-to-not-use apps, say to ID oneself with some (public) services.

    I use a dumbed down iPhone (like, really: no social, no games, no whatever not even email is configured on it) just so I can access those few apps.

    And if you’re not, sometimes you just need to stop for a sec and look around to find them. They’re always there.

    Indeed.

    I try to enjoy any moment, even the less than perfect ones. For the last few day, I’ve been stuck at home with a broken bone but I focus on the time it gives me to read and to write more, to spend more time with my spouse and us being happy to be together. Naive, most certainly, but I will still take it after 25 years together ;)
