But She's A Girl

As part of my ongoing tweaking, I have finally entered the 21st Century and upgraded my fruitbat avatar in my profile from a 40px to a 400px version. Still the same original from the 1911 edition of Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary.

I’ve been pottering with my site, having a minor revamp (that ancient Twitter link had to go!) and adding IndieWeb features. I’ve also signed up for omg.lol which I will gradually add more to, and their Mastodon instance.

It’s Friday, so it’s peanut butter sandwich day. I don’t have particular foods I habitually eat on other days, but I like the clear signal to myself that the weekend is approaching. Plus, I really like peanut butter so would eat it every day of if I didn’t artificially restrict myself.

I’ve been having a fun Sunday pottering with my ‘macroblog’, trying to add Webmentions. I think have all the moving parts assembled, but trying to send a webmention from here to one of my articles doesn’t seem to have produced anything in the Webmention.io dashboard. Patience, I guess?

Finished reading: Lolly Willowes by Sylvia Townsend Warner 📚 Funny, poignant, joyful, and a brilliant feminist book.

New post: Productivity rethink

In which I discuss a change in my tools and workflow, prompted by a trial of Sunsama, and the release of OmniFocus 4.

I’m really loving this book. So many bits of wry humour.

Finished reading: The Puppet Show by M. W. Craven 📚I wasn’t sure if this was going to be too gruesome for me. Thankfully, those parts were not too frequent, and the excellent characters and pacy plot made it very enjoyable.

Today’s sewing music is Han’s Zimmer’s soundtrack to Interstellar. Grading seams has never felt so epic!
