they say
this is the city
the city of angels
all i see is dead wings

ok let’s go

what has been going on? big week for snacks. not a big week for getting out of bed and going around the world. maybe next week can look like that?

zeezy is in Oman, hi zeezy!

lots of progress on littlebook. made a little music too. appeared indirectly on the front page of hackernews. lots of phone calls. my bed contains 3 stringed instruments, 2 guitar pedals, 2 synthesizers and a microphone. i’ve gotta go for a walk. i’ll do that now. see you in 20 minutes or so.

time passes

tick tock.

there’s nothing but bears and deer out there! and sainsburys prawn sandwiches with tasty seeds in the bread. that’s a good sandwich right there. would anyone like a cup of tea? i’d love a cup of tea. you know what? i’m going to make tea.

water and beasts

been a while since i was out there on all those slippery black rocks with the salty greens and the little snippers sneaking out the gaps and the water crashing into bursts of violent white foam across ones little feeties. gotta get out there soon. the salt and and the seaweed. yum yum yum. lay down on the ground and get splashed on. wake up in the water. play some cards, light a fire, long trip home.

we’re going to visit some animals in Kent next week for my 58th birthday or whatever it is I am now. 23? i’m going to brush a goat, in any case. i’ll be brushing that goat. remind me that we need to bring cucumber sandwiches.

handing you a teabag and saying there you go, you get yourself a wee drink.

i just spent so much time building this little beepulator. i hope that you enjoy using it. the javascript was nothing, but i got really lost in the css for a while. nothing like a good time. i suppose i should make it so my RSS feed just tells you there has been a new post, but not actually include the content. because much of my posts are web-only, and won’t work in a lot of RSS readers.

made the mistake of looking at tomorrow’s work calendar. now i’m hungry. i’ll add some features to lima which i’m now using to configure my computer with docfiles to finally maybe replace my insane emacs docfiles config. one day perhaps i will even be able to free myself from emacs. it needs a few features:

storing blocks and values as variables
variable interpolation
os-specific blocks
(maybe) executing shell scripts
running on a bunch of files with shared context

but more importantly:

eggs
eggs
eggs
eggs

neat squeakers

nice sneakers

good speakers

let’s sleep
