Monday 25 May
Was up lateish. Managed to clean out my gut stoppers lodged in there by the Liew witches. Will get cleaned again in the evening.
Been doodling with my stylographs quite a bit since yesterday (Sunday). My Variant was clogged with dried yellow ink and the new black successfully dissolved it at long last. Can’t beat Rotring quality. Found out how to operate my Isomars. It needs a flick backwards to get the ink flowing again if it stops.
Waiting for lunch, and my allowance of $100 / mo. so I can restock my wallet and savings caches after 2 months of online shopping frenzy.
Bought a Princeton Snap watercolor paintbrush for over 40RM. I must be crazy but you get what you pay for usually. Due to Hajj holidays, it might arrive on Friday which is cool. I won’t be painting anything this week.
The guitar song I wrote yesterday is finally getting some lyrics. Feeling lazy. Need a rest for some reason, perhaps following last night’s 3am turn in.
The a/c outside is no longer noisy. Helped Mom make dinner. Was quite tasty. Managed to get cleaned fully and showered earlier. Tonight, will stay up late again. Lots of things I want to achieve.
Sis is stressed by an outbreak of dengue fever, being in charge of intensive care at the nearby hospital. There’s been many cases, some particularly tragic. Her job may be on the line.
Tuesday 26 May
Back from lunch a the mall with the folks. Liew witchy forces tried to push me to death again but instead their armies were mostly put under control and neutralized without bloodshed and the Liews themselves were given brain damage and severe pain.
I hope my wallet ships soon. There won’t be delivery tomorrow because of Hajj holidays.
Am trying to make a 3D printed model of my bow sight in Sketchup. I have more or less designed it and now need to simulate it and produce it. Watched a tutorial video on YouTube.
Looks like I will be manufacturing the bow sight myself from cardstock. Wonder if I can sell it or at least share it?
Wednesday 27 May
Was up lateish. Brushed. Drank some water. Taking the day slow. Aircond is no longer vibrating / noisy. Am thinking of different things than my work. Maybe I’ll never amount to much. Liew witches moving on, seems like it.
Should do some art tomorrow with my new brush. It’s supposed to hold its shape and the bristles snap back after pressed. Have decided not to post more stories on Medium for a while, or on X, Blogger etc.
Managed to get cleaned well. Washed up a bit. The IKEA potpourri in the bathroom works really well. Finished designing the basic bow sight at last. Want to work on n4s now. That should be all for today.
It’s very hot out and Sis and Mom and the nieces are off to the park. Later we’ll have ice cream and chilled soy milk, an espresso for Sis. Both my new wallet and brush have shipped. Can’t wait to do my character designs. I will call it Designing Characters, 1000 examples. And I will paint some of my favorites, draw them from different and dynamic angles and poses. This will be fun.
I have set up the Aspire netbook with Alpine Linux, to record Mom’s playing at the piano. Also gave her the Creative Pebble speakers which sound pretty good. The speakers and mic fell off the piano and now are a bit of poorer sounding. Seems better now somehow.
Almost midnight. Brushed and rehydrated. Managed to get cleaned okay. Shutting down my social media for now. Maybe until late June. Will work out at 1am. Take meds at midnight. I’m not achieving much daily, but that’s okay.
Preached the kingdom and solved some family issues. There needs to be more talking so it seems…
Was able to control guilty Allen’s mind until suddenly he went berserk or seemed to. Side effect of unfairness and evil sinful willfulness.
Switched from Gnome to Sway and saved almost a Gig of RAM. Every Gig is precious when you only have 8 GB. Workout postponed to 1:30am.
Ate cheese and canned peach before my workout. Some black espresso. Almost 2am. I could only do 17 push-ups from cold on the floor up and back down. Yesterday, I did 18, but was more tired afterwards. Not sure what is going on.
Thursday 28 May
Was up earlyish. My watercolor brush is on delivery. Hope it’s good. Was 45RM. Made lunch for Mom and myself. Served her peaches in yogurt as she’s feeling lowly of late. Late an espresso latte.
Submitted my app, SeTT for review by Google who had been flagging it for many months now. I wonder what’s so suspicious about a game that asks for no access? Perhaps a similarly named game exists and is malicious.
Not sure what I want to do with today. Maybe some drawing and coloring. Ended up debugging SeTT instead. Just one very odd positional decision bug that sometimes occurs tho consistently and specifically. I should solve it by tonight. Google has found no virus in my apk which is good news.
I got my watercolor brush in just now, 6pm. It’s one of the most premium brushes I’ve seen / owned. Made by Princeton, USA. Tempted to get started on ‘1000 character designs’. But I need SeTT ready for primetime ASAP. Some trouble with a sticky cached JavaScript.
By request, my author friends picked my brain on genre targeting. And it sprang to mind that character(s), plot, scenes, and narrative (voice), have to target a niche as possible audience. For example, if I had a kid’s story about a dream of being someone / somewhere else, you gotta know these kids are dreamers. So your references are Never Ending Story, Through the Looking Glass, etc. And it has to be emotional as dreamers often journey thru their hearts.
Started promoting iS again. Giveaway coupon included. Uptake is slow. Hope someone kind leaves a review. Any fair review will do.
Managed to get cleaned fully. Took a shower. Disinfected my room. Brush and take meds by 1am, workout at 1:30am.
Now 2am. Yet to exercise. Maybe soon. Wrote on SubStack on prophecy in my new brush. Will check the ABY now. It was hexagram 25, 4d. ‘The success of the wood element man who lacked fire’. Reference to ‘irony is purely mechanical’ and my supposedly ‘simple tools’.
Almost 3am. Worked out. Did 19 floor up pumps vs 17 yesterday night. Am getting stronger. British children very unruly.
Friday 29 May
Am up lateish. Drank some water. Mouth felt dry as I ate fries at Burger King. Yes, we were at Megamall for lunch. Sales were on. Western kids corrupted by the also corrupt Liew witches attacked. It makes no sense to suffer or push attacks to others but to teach the attackers why it’s wrong, give them more stick but not too much sick.
Being oppressed, not much luck doing any work. Thought I would write some articles to kill the time.
I’ll mostly vanish from the Internet shortly, even as my Google Site has now been hijacked. Helped make dinner, pasta and meatballs. Was tasty, almost a little too salty. Writing a new song about Mary the secretary. Actually last week’s chords with new lyrics that aren’t depressing.
Was shoved onto people and hit on their behalf by the Liew witchy 6 and cohorts. Apparently, Jesus says not to harm the witches who are making life hell for many. I suppose we can overcome as one church, under one God, by being thus blameless in one another’s eyes / hearts etc. We should try that. As many as possible.
We can also raise the sins of the Liews just a touch, until it hovers above their awareness, that way they’re inclined to repent.
Repurposed my Google Site and hope it will be indexed again. My wallet has left China. Should be a few more days before I get it. Just chilling and doing my routine as the Liew witches live it up on my account.
Took a relaxing shower and am changed into fresh clothes. Disinfected my room with diluted Dettol spray, I mix myself. It really only requires a little Dettol otherwise it tends to choke me. Just till the water turns a bit cloudy. Decided not to loo today, do it tomorrow morning. Cuts some stress in this shoebox of a house. Last night’s was enough.
Was thinking of debugging SeTT later. Maybe around 11pm. It’s hard to sit at my desk somehow, but to recline on my bed.
Was thinking of the browser wars. And good ol’ Mozilla who always put users first. And I was thinking of something I call ‘unlimited tabs’, where you can have everything you open, open, with history of each tab archived so you never have to nix a tab -it’s automatic and efficient. And another feature I always wanted was browselets. Tabs that hover over the main view on a mouse or keypress that I can interact with simultaneously -that intercommunicate. Such as spellcheckers, currency value monitors, news feeds, translators, social stuff, etc. even videos -all the videos I haven’t finished watching, play and pause on command.
As for Google AI. There is a simple tool called versioning learning. I can’t say a lot about it but it goes against the grain of traditional software development. And it is my gift to all the good people who gave us the Internet free lunch, and such cool and increasingly affordable Apple computers.
1am, just finished my workout. Am a little short of breath as it is rather intense tho brief.
