2026/w40
Damn, we’re in the 40s.
Getting into some anniversaries now.
If you’d like to read a good post, I'd recommend last week’s. That’s an all timer. This will not be one of those.
We’re starting to get into anniversaries now.
This week was peaceful. There was the part when nobody was around. On Monday I was reminded how lucky I am to have a job where sometimes it’s my job to get on the phone with one of the most interesting people in the world and listen to them talk about something they care about.
On Wednesday I met Cyrus for lunch and gave him back his suitcase which had been in my apartment. We ate a whole chicken in Spitalfields and then he went to Wales.
On Thursday I went to Brighton to visit with Owen Lynch. We went on the CRAZY MOUSE, which is a kind of flat rollercoaster that looks out over the sea and sometimes it feels like it’ll throw you right in. It was a four person ride so I grabbed two random people off the pier and paid them on so we could ride. The operator’s name was Ora. She was very nice and had a nose piercing.
Later, Owen and me wandered around and solved all of computing and for a moment I started to believe I understood something about category theory. Luckily this wore off after a good night’s sleep.
The rest of the time I watched Veronica Mars.
My new years resolution is going to be to become somebody that nobody has any complicated feelings about. And to invite some special boy to the Sadie Hawkins dance.
I was sent some writing in an e-mail, and the writing is very good. I've printed it out so I can read it on paper. In the future when I am less dead and have been fed and cared for, I will speak of it effusively.
