a good squint

i wasn't kidding - i channelled this morning's inner disquiet into starting and completing a tricky little project today (after spending too much time on something else which reminded me why web development sucks). i'm pleased with the results and tomorrow will be ready to make the biggest and most important change: couple that with a good-news mail that suggests that another of my final projects has been rendered redundant, and i'll be outta there soon :)

i *did* spend too much time in front of the screen, though; my vision was all blurry by the time i finally got up to go for a walk with pg.

i walked with her halfway, then ran for a bit expecting to catch up with her later - but she was too fast for me. afterwards we took the dog for a walk to ze sushi, where we both ate too much (and i drank too much saki) before slowly meandering back.

thought for the day: bibi netanyahu, if i'm guessing correctly, is a genius. all the leftists are demanding "social justice" (a euphemism for socialism) and history tells us that that system doesn't work so well with democracy. so it may well be that he's bringing us around to a dictatorship in order to establish a socialist regime, in which case he'll have both the left and the right in his pocket - which even democratically would allow him a dictatorship...

RIP neil armstrong. i don't dig his attitude towards elon musk's projects, but the man is the first to take and experience the most important step in human history. for that he is eternal.
