This is what my evening has been like…

# expected :cache_image with (:test, “test/data/loads_png/test.png”)

Three runs of the same drawing script, with the only difference being that it’s hooked up to different generators…

30 minutes on a crappy $80 pneumatic stair-stepper, and I didn’t even notice the time ’cause I was also on my laptop (on the counter). Did nothing more than break a mild sweat, but I feel great, like my body’s been purged of a poison.

1:16 PM me: Then yeah, the switch to HandlesEvents is better.
loganbarnett: Last thingie.
me: coo…
loganbarnett: Our Jemini talk was accepted at RubyConf (:

This current life is headed in a promising direction overall, so thank you. If you’re keeping a playlist for me, I’d like to add the following items…

1. Manga artist
2. John Cleese (not any comedian, this one in particular)
3. Barn swallow (the swooping looks fun)
