infryq | Epic balkan-style fairy tale dreams

Yesterday I ordered some wooden handles for making clay tools out of. The
nice ones on Etsy were sadly not available unfinished (and the finish was
just plain lacquer, not waterproof) so I wound up with some mass-produced
ones from a shop in Maine. I had lunch with C and K, which was nice. At
work I battled with AWS Cognito’s terrible error messages, but eventually
got it to run. I fixed some bugs in our persistence handler, and found some
more in the JSON decoder.

After work, it was extremely hot in the sun, but pleasantly breezy in the
shade. P ordered Chinese, basil chicken, which was interestingly different
from the Thai version. After dinner we did the crossword, and I added more
french knots to Gerty’s embroidery project.

Luck in the Shadows remains disappointingly misogynistic. I’d quit but the
foreshadowing is pulling me onwards.
