 ## Web Applications
 
+Firefox is awesome. I'm a big fan. I make heavy use of their "Sync" offering,
+which syncs just about everything. It's very convenient and I'm sure it will
+somehow bite me later.

+I use the following must-have browser extensions:

+- [hide-scrollbars](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/hide-scrollbars/) to hide scroll bars
+- [FoxyProxy](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/foxyproxy-standard/) for proxying through to various resources

+- [Firefox Multi-Account Containers](https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/multi-account-containers/) for being logged into all my accounts simulataneously

+- Some piece of crap first act electric guitar that I keep trying to fix and make work
+  - I just need to bite the bullet and save up for a nice Ibanez (used of course)

+## Electronics
+
+I also tinker a lot with electronics and "maker"-y things! The only name-able
+thing is my 3D printer, which is an Ender CR-10S. Micro Center was having an
+incredible sale one upon a day. The thing is really awesome. I still want a real
+nice one that I can reliably send prints over the network to.

+Other unnamed tools I have and use on roughly a weekly basis:
+
+- Soldering iron
+- Solder sucker
+- Air purifier (solder _and_ 3D printer fumes ain't all that good for you)
+
+And I'm sure there are other unsung heroes I just don't think about. Like butter
+knives.
+
+# Finishing The Day
+
+That about does it! I usually head upstairs when work is done, make food in
+unidentifiable cookware, tinker and play with my kids for a bit, head out to
+whatever evening activity we've got going on if applicable, come home, and bedtime!
+
+Ah, we have a couple tablets for Khan Academy Kids, white noise (and other
+sleep-inducing ambience), and podcasts (like Base Camp Adventures!) and a
+Google Home Mini or two, mostly for playing loud and obnoxious music or setting
+timers.
