Yesterday we slept in. Normally breakfast is at ~8:30 but we didn’t eat
until almost ten. I cooked another batch of rice berry, and set some kidney
beans to soak for dinner. We went to the farmers market and got asparagus,
cabbage, lettuce, scallions, and mesclun; then geagle for dairy, earth
balance, and a third thing. I did a turn through the garden and picked snow
peas!, orach, and cilantro. Lunch (rice, carrots, green and purple orach,
snow peas, cilantro, excellent), then I spent the afternoon futzing with
the shirt prototype. I wound up moving the left yoke shoulder seam, left
bust dart (twice), adding a horizontal two-ended dart just under the bust,
and re-hanging the side seams using a plumb bob and pinning to my
undershirt. I had P check my grainlines in back, then traced over the final
seamlines with sharpie so I can take the thing apart and tell what I did.
Snack in there somewhere, and P made pasta. I cooked the kidney beans with
bay, peppercorns, and a clove, and will definitely be using that combo
again because wow. Made some of them into dinner chili with rice, peas,
corn, carrots, cranberries, spices, and burnt caramel. Ate (very late, like
eight), crossword (fun puns), sleep.

I finished Raven and started it over again. Even cooler the second time
around, so far.

Yesterday I pulled myself together and wrote up the type
systems/lifelong-learning conundrum for friend R, who does basically CS
private lessons for a living (we’re doing a coordination meeting this
afternoon to lay out a ten-week instruction plan), and finally replied to
the vegan nutritionist in AUS to get intake paperwork and her fee schedule.

At work I started testing the unique-id-based references, which turn out to
destroy our ability to usefully talk about parse frames. So I’m probably
going to wind up adding back in the routines I took out that look up the
references before asking the user about them. Sigh. Also having trouble
getting the natural language generation software to produce
“verb+infinitive” patterns like “want to set”. I can get “want that I set”
but no closer yet. I may have to put in a github issue if I can’t find an
example in the unit tests.

After work we went straight to dinner and crossword, then P made Thai pork
for lunches this week while I finished reading Arabella. The ending was a
bit abrupt, but still good.

I received the intake paperwork once AUS morning arrived, and stayed up
rather late filling it out. Haven’t sent it off yet since she also wants a
history walkthrough.
