This entry is for July 30th, 2021. I seem to be losing my focus lately. I have a lot of stress coming from various different sources, mostly financial at the moment. I still haven't had my roof repaired because it would cost more money tha…
I tackled the pending work (for my job) with a firey passion today and got a ton of stuff done. It felt good and I'm pretty satisfied with how it turned out. But for the rest of the day, I didn't really do too much. Hatena Star There may b…
Friends So uh, if you recognize yourself here, keep in mind that almost nobody reads my blog and the people that do are mostly Japanese anyway so they probably won't know you So there's two friends of mine that I'm going to talk about, let…
Attachments and possessions When you hear that someone has been "thinking about their attachments to the world" or talking about things that sound nomadic, you might have a response similar to "hey now, don't get ahead of yourself". I'm no…
This entry is for July 26th, 2021. Loss, and a better normal It's the first day following ERC, and...there's a feeling of loss that I'm all too familiar with. Campmeeting is a community unlike any other. Love for your neighbor is on full d…
This entry is for July 25th, 2021 Campmeeting I've been attending ERC for most of my life. The short time each year where I've come has lit a fire in my heart, and in the past five years, has emboldened me further. I find healing, reinforc…
This entry is for July 24th (backdated) Code I continued to look into what led to the changes that broke Hatena Star. I started to argue for the update of the iframe sandbox attribute to add a new value (or modify an existing one) to speci…

I spent time today working on a new little web application that I've been tossing around in my head for a while. I also went back to campmeeting and I'm really glad I did. This evening we went out to the riverside near the normal end of ta…
July 21st Friend There's an old friend of mine who I've recently started talking to again and we spent about 6 hours chatting. They weren't doing really well so I wanted to see if I could help. Because of that though I missed out on going …

Holy cow! Luckily I didn't crash. Have you ever seen a rotor break like this?? It was very alarming. My brake caused my car to veer into the right lane because the left one didn't work (obviously) and it pivoted around the right one. Thank…
Waking up from my nap, that was fun My head popped off my pillow, "Oh no" "I had all day to do productive things and did nothing" Language lessons I didn't waste the whole day, but I wanted to go back to Eaton Rapids and just.. didn't. Not…
Web design I kinda avoid updating the design of my blog, but mostly because it's very difficult to use Hatena Blog's built-in theme editor. You have to click to expand it and you lose your place whenever you want to click out. The most eff…
Today I fixed the trim on the side of the family cottage and power-washed the siding and steps. I'm really tired out from it. Using a power washer will make your entire upper body sore if you're not used to it. I was also recruited to fix …
Shelves My mom got me some shelves as a gift. We assembled them together :) There are two units, totalling eight cubes. Trying to get better native XInput 2 support for tablet pressure I've started working on figuring out why browsers on L…

We have this place called Horrock's Farm Market and one of my favorite places to go. It's a bit of a drive away but they often have really good deals on meat. I got a lot of chicken. I think I'm going to use it to make a bunch of soup or m…

Code This week is felt pretty long and I'm very ready for the weekend. I got the drawing tablet that my amazingtastic friend Purin sent me and used it to fix a lot of bugs in the Haiku art tool. The fixes aren't live yet but I'm hoping to …
Podcast This week on @replyall: I join Alex Goldman on a journey into the weird and wacky workings of Twitter accounts to discover the identity behind the Twitter account with no name. Listen to it today over on Spotify and Google Podcasts…
I finally got my car back from the shop today. It came with a hefty bill of over $1,150. But I'm happy to pay any price for my safety. There's a saying in Spanish, Lo barato sale caro, or "cheap is expensive", that I'm well aware of. I've …
Costs are rising for the upkeep of my house and my vehicle. Today I worked hard and looked into a database deadlock condition for my employer. I work as a testing engineer and figure out how to make things break in the development environm…
You ever have one of those days where you can think of stuff that you want to get done but you've had such a busy week that you're just not really feeling it? Cuz that's what today was for me. Like, sometimes you just open YouTube and skip…
