state of my life address

(started 23:56 Wednesday 03 June 2020 JST)

1. Very curious to me that I have been writing *less* in my journal

while ostensibly having more time to do whatever I want during this COVID stuff.

1. After we did lessons online for 5 of the past 8 weeks, I just went

back to JB School today for 4 lessons today. I had the option of sitting behind a clear sheet hanging from the ceiling, but I felt claustrophobic behind it and just opted to wear a mask.

1. I seem to have gotten a scratch on my eye from fiber from my

mask. Very annoying.

1. I am planning to walk to Niigata. Now that I have found a way

across the mountains and found Dragondola, I am getting super excited about the walk.

1. I wrote an entry for George Floyd

1. After writing the entry, I saw some interesting evidence that the

murder may have been faked, and lots of rioting has been amplified by paid shills and free bricks delivered to peaceful demonstration locations.

1. I have been visiting "my" tree semi regularly as a place to chill.

Today I even did some planning for ConSwi scoring system. Last time Tariq, Dipendra, and I met, I came up with a new way to calculate the scores.

1. In Bold Life Brotherhood, we are now in the month of June, focusing

on RIGOR.

1. For AB, I have gotten rid of at least 3 singletons, and am down to

2 remaining in the codebase. I have not yet figured out how to convert SiteHandler, but ErrorHandler will be converted to non-singleton soon. I actually did not notice ErrorHandler was a singleton because I had been searching for `extends \Pattern\Singleton but ErrorHandler` came from a different source and has its singleton aspects right in the class definition.

1. Mai has been hanging out with us occassionally since COVID; it has

been great to have a friend living close by.  Richard moved first
back to his home country and now they are waiting for Mai's visa
to be approved.

2. While walking in the mornings, I found a neat house at the top of

a hill which uses the shape of the hill to give a window to an
otherwise underground room.

1. I have been walking in the mornings recently, ostensibly preparing

for my planned walk to Niigata in April 2021.  I can walk for an
hour before I really notice any tiredness.  I think I could walk
an hour four or five times in a day (with breaks) and maintain my
planned schedule.

2. Marble Track 3 is going well. I have been spending 2 hours per

week livestreaming the animation of its construction. Today I actually did 1.4 hours, so I want to make up the rest by the end of the week.

1. I just recently started the idea of making a marble

tracks out of wire, after watching a video explaining
how to do it with simple tools.  I was like "wow!" and "I can do
that!" while hoping I can actually do it.  I bought some stainless
steel wire from a hardware shop on the way to JB.  Today I bought
some piano wire from a shop I found by following inspiration at
each turn.
