I made this bookmark for the hymnals at church. Mass production (pun not intended, I’m not Catholic) begins Sunday after services—I made 1, we need 250.

Zombie-cake

I went to a great birthday party last weekend, with an ice cream cake from The Chilly Cow. Delicious!
Sadly, the green icing apparently causes zombification.

White shows up nicely against yellow

I just started a project that embeds white crochet into brightly-colored squares. I really liked this yellow, but was afraid that the white wouldn’t show up. My fear was unfounded-it looks great!

Gnus and OmniFocus

The only mail client that can keep up with me and my correspondents is Gnus. The only to-do-list manager I’ve stuck with is OmniFocus. While I’ve found other code for communicating from Emacs to OmniFocus, I hadn’t found anything to specifically extract Gnus messages and post them to the OmniFocus inbox. I’ve now written a binding to do just that, based on earlier non-Gnus work by Ken Case of The Omni Group.

Alice and Kev

The story of Alice and Kev is a story of a homeless family—a man who hates children and his hard-working but miserable daughter—played out in The Sims 3.

It’s still ongoing, so after reading through the heart-wrenching story so far, I subscribed to their RSS feed. Start from the beginning, it’s worth it.

Eastgate Mall in Cincinnati, OH

Boston does not have exciting malls, and those it has I don’t visit much. But I badly needed a break from working, and my hotel is in this mall’s parking lot, so I walked over. It feels like playing tourist in a different America. They have stroller-cars, a whole store for just cookies, and a carousel. Also, on a Tuesday at 20:30, almost no people…

Chick-Fil-A in Cincinnati,OH

I’d never seen a Chick-Fil-A with a playground before. Because I accidentally ended up here during Kids’ Night, it’s also overrun with kids and a cow mascot. Luckily the kids are mostly well-behaved (even the ones afraid of the cow)
