   I got to go back to the office this week, which has been
   weird AF.

   Sure, I missed the perks of the office, and I haven't had
   much reason to commute into the city without work, so it's
   kind of novel to be back on the train every day -- but it's
   so good to work with people in person. Hard to know if I'd
   want to go back to doing it 5 days-per-week but I'd really
   love to do it a lot more.

   Sadly, I now have a cold, so after two days in person I'll
   be WFH for the rest of the week anyway, lest I make someone
   else sick :/

   I don't quite know what the company is thinking by doing
   this: it's been a huge top-up to my excitement of working
   here to get to see colleagues and have random hallway
   conversations and just _be excited_ about some of this stuff
   again -- but also we're a remote company. Next week it's
   back to Slack and Meet only. I'm sure a load of people will
   be disappointed (again!) by this, after having slowly
   accepted it over the last three years.
