0xDECAFBAD Bucket

Attached a patch to a bug today, and watched it get announced in an IRC channel. Like, in public. This'll take some getting used to.

As seen on Twitter, I biked to work today. It was only about 11 miles from Santa Clara to Mountain View, but that was enough for me.

• But, it wasn't too much for me. I've only got about a month left out here in CA, but I wonder if I might just keep this up.

• Oh yeah, and I wore this snazzy Firefox cycling jersey. I felt at once silly and like a superhero.

Once upon a time, about 5 or 6 years ago if I recall, I quit smoking cold turkey. Having done that, I feel like I can do damn near anything sometimes.

• The trick is remembering that feeling.

• And the other trick—as I find it currently difficult to rise from the couch with muscles overused through 22 miles of bike riding today—is not to overdo it.

Seems like Twitter is down again. Makes me happy I have a bucket.

I need to collect bucket thoughts in order to compose a long-form blog post explaining and introducing the thing. Maybe it'll happen under this bullet.

• Or, maybe not.
