I fucked up my eBay product downsizing so bad. I accidentally ended ALL but 8 listings. I went from exactly 3000 listings to exactly 8 listings in a matter of minutes. I stressed out about this so hard last night. Couldn’t sleep. But then I talked aloud to myself and worked it out. It was […]

My friend Christopher Toledo created http://wizards.zone/. He set up a Pleroma instance which seems to be a web client for the Mastodon network. It’s like a federated Twitter alternative. I uttered my first Toot– a slightly modified passage from my novel, and the adminWizard has replied with a compelling followup. It’s very interesting that this […]

1:31 AM. I’m having trouble disconnecting. Story of my life LOL. I had a good coding session, learning about SVG and masking and animations. I’m figuring out how to animate the little spinny things in the cassette tape. (This code contains 364 words which means I gotta write 2364 words, not 2000) So yeah. The […]

I tried out some free, open source bookkeeping software today. https://frappebooks.com/ I saw this shared on Hacker News the other day. It’s a nice looking piece of software! I think it has a lot of promise. Unfortunately, it’s not going to be useful for me in my eBay business. There would be somewhere close to […]

I didn’t finish yesterday’s post. Ended up sleeping until the sun came up. Oh well! I suppose I could write extra today, but I’m not going to push myself unless it feels right. Today’s goal is to simply respect Pomodoro technique. I have a timer going right now. The excellent Pomodoro app, Good Time. I […]

仕事。Blogging is working. Working is blogging. But is it really? I suppose it can be, if the act of publishing and gaining readers is something that can be monetized. The way I’m doing things right now, it’s not monetization. I don’t publish! Well, I schedule my writings to be published, 2 years from when I […]

Yesterday was wonderfully productive. I started using the Pomodoro Technique to manage my time spent working on web development and I had wonderful results in doing so. I got up and took breaks to stretch or walk. When during a work period, I had an incredible focus on the task. I set task intentions for […]

I got an offer for this shitty electronic drum set. My shipping fee was way too low. I had it set at $12. Luckily someone sent an offer rather than buying it outright. This gave me a chance to package it up and determine exactly how much it will cost to send. $34.44 is what […]

I woke up feeling sore and stiff and groggy and tired. I blame the croissants I ate yesterday. It’s 1:21PM now. I just packaged up some love coupons that I sold on eBay. It took me over a half hour to find the damn things. It’s all my fault, because I didn’t note the correct […]

Good start to the day. Woke up and started my laundry. Then I went for a walk. 20 laps, yoga, and 10 pushups. Pushups are easier now. I can do 7 in one go, without breaks. I remember when that number was 1 or 2. Pretty cool. My mom was out walking as well, and […]

Freestylin! I just had this song stuck in my head because I just listed my rollerblade shit on eBay. It had the term, “Freestyle” and I thought of this song. I decided to sell these ice blades because I bought them two years ago and haven’t used them once. I paid $64 back then. They’re […]
