Well.... there is alcohol involved. But thus far just a single hard cider.

I keep meaning to learn that software, but not enough hours in the day

Well... I was pretty proficient in fire modelling in WFDSS. But the new version doesn't include the short and near term models I need. Yet. So I was forced to swap to FARSITE and IFTDSS. Both do some really fun stuff, and I actually like them better. But... they want zipped shapefiles.

And.... ArcMap wants to use a geodatabase these days. So... QGIS might be the better way to come up with that zipped shapefile. Especially when connectivity is rough. And here we are on a Friday night.

My Fridays are not much more exciting, learning some new software would be fun

All I wanted was a zipped shapefile! And she wouldn't give it to me!
