I can now add micro-journals to my site. Yay. Tomorrow, I’ll start working on an iOS version and tinyDB library. #programming #journal #flask
Dinner consume-ed.
I don’t feel like making dinner. I think I’ll order something.
It’s ok to fail if you don’t know what you’re doing. It’s not ok to do something when you don’t know what you’re doing. #life
I miss live conferences. The only one I go to nowadays is C3. Wish there were more. I hate virtual “get-togethers.” If I want to watch TV, I’ll watch a movie.
Tell someone you appreciate them. #life #success

Spent the morning bringing up a PoC of a Mac app for my micro-journals. Got it to read tinyDB files properly—easy-peasy. I think I need to write a tinyDB library for iOS. #programming #ios #tinydb #journal

Well, another weekend draws to a close. I hope you had fun and accomplished something.

Micro.blog’s timeline is slow today.
Whenever someone gets drafted onto a sport(s) team and I see the joy on their face, I envision a thought bubble above their head with a $ sign. #life #sport

No matter how bad it may be, you’re better with your sense of humor than an empty whiskey barrel full of drunk termites. #humor #life

“I shall pull down the sun and bring the endless night.” “How—how will you do that, Master?” “I shall fling this useless planet into the void.” “Wasnt’t that Space:1999?” “That was the moon and a TV show. My plans are bigger.!By the way, you’re an idiot.” #writing #throwawayline
