lovely week, really

zoozoo was over at my rabbit hutch for a few days, and on tuesday we went out to slade green to collect my 201 pocket piano . it was fun riding the train and drinking canned beers. the instrument is great fun! very playful.

she had a friend coming over for Eid so left on Wednesday morning, we had kind of a strange night but it was just a lot of pressure from feeling like there isn't much time to make a lot of big decisions.

more silly things on this website

i spent some of my free time this week adding a micropub endpoint so i can write posts from (for instance) IA Writer.app or Drafts.app on my phone and computer.

NOTE FOR COMPUTER PEOPLE ONLY: implementing micropub is actually not as hard i thought AND you don't actually need indieauth.

indieauth is just used to get a oauth token, but then the oauth token is sent as authentication: Bearer ${token}. so i just made one publish token and then told IA Writer.app about it.

i'm having a lot of fun making little icons and preparing for interactive and art posts. hopefully soon i'll actually have some art inside me again to put in them. but for now it's a lot of fun laying brick.

sneaking through the night

i took a bolt at about 2am on friday morning, intending to stay for only a few hours or so. but then i stayed until sunday. i met her friend Sam, who is lovely and interesting. we all made vine leaves together on saturday for workingman's eid.

they were extremely delicious. we used laila's recipe from The Gaza Kitchen. that's a really great book that intertwines eloquent and vivid recipes with eloquent and vivid stories of gaza. the potatoes were like lemons.

we said our goodbyes on sunday morning. zoozer and i made plans for the next day, she's coming to visit for a week.

sunday lounging scrounging

the dlr is in fact NOT RUNNING today which means it is not possible to travel between any two places in London. so we're gonna stay here another night before we do our little choo-choo + chee + zoo-zoo experiment of living together at my place for a week or two to see if we'd like to life together at my place for a month or three while we bank dollar after dollar on Half Price Rent.

i have the tightest abs and the biggest ass in the city of london

oh i'll turn the oven on

i made a delicious tangy curry with freshly stewed tomatos and everything else in the fridge. and a cucumber yoghurt sauce with all the juice a lemon had and a little vinegar. it was extremely delicious. freshly stewed tomatos really bare almost no resemblance to canned chopped tomatos.
