The cat continues to be confused as to why I would do something other than hug the cat. The cat has now been hugged and she's much calmer.

cat: *loud purr*

Someone spent a painted quarter today.

Today I found out that the librarian from back when I was in high school recently passed away. I didn't use the school library much (I had more convenient access to better libraries) but she was one of the academic decathlon coaches so I knew her that way.

phone UI idea: an explicit screen orientation control so people who put the device down on a level surface (for example, as a desk calculator) don't have to play games to get it to not auto-wrong that setting.

She wanted to get under a blanket.

There's a cat standing on me.

Did a journey on Tetris Effect starting at the beginning and letting my score carry over all the way through the final stage. It looks like the final stage plays out a little differently if you do that? (my zone gauge got an infinity symbol and I got a few extra zones activating automatically one after the next upon getting the required line count)

cat: why are you making dinner when you could be hugging the cat?

The socially acceptable replacement for a handshake is now, "Wonder Twin powers, activate!"

Punk wants a cuddle.

Spending some quality time with the cat.

The new (used) car is smaller but the trunk is big enough for almost anything I've put in the old one and it has some features that I've never had in a car before like a backup camera.

I have a car again. Tomorrow I'll get the old one emptied out and see about getting NPR to tow it away.

While the credit union couldn't see their way to a yes on a car loan (I'll have to rethink continuing a relationship with them because if they don't have my back when I need help then what good are they?) my sister is going to help me out with that.

New Peruvian coffee is up on the web site. I only brought in 30Kg of this and I've already roasted a third of that so it won't be available for long.

After calling the person who was handling my car loan (car needs either replacement or an engine that costs more than half the price of that replacement) application and asking her to check her spam box for the documents she wanted that I emailed Monday (sure enough, there they were), they're not interested in being useful. So that sucks.

I still haven't seen a coconut in #GenshinImpact so the Cocogoat existing in an area saved for later exploration remains a possibility.
