Dreamt of picking bright blue calendula

Yesterday I sewed the front yoke seam on the burgundy floral, then laid out the side seams on the black and sewed them up as plain seams. The front yoke seam makes that section of the side seam a bit squirrely, so I’m hoping trimming and felling separately will help with that.

I started reading Contact by Carl Sagan. In theory I’ve read it before, but I must’ve been much younger, because wow. Prescient, insightful, rich. We’ve been fighting anti-science sentiment for a long time. It’s a little disappointing, but hardly surprising, that he explicitly considered a place in North America’s future for Native Americans but not for black people.

At work I broke out the brute force strategy and started collating each sql query with its meaning in theo and its place in the call structure of the frame-building procedure. There’s a lot left to do, but it’s already helped identify several patterns where we’re duplicating queries or asking the database for things we already know won’t be in there.

Home, did a turn through the garden and picked a mess of green beans, did dinner, dishes, trash, crossword, Gentleman Jack, and ate the last of the nut/seed bars for snack. I pre-measured ingredients to make more this morning, then went to sleep.
