Ouch, ow, oh! Creaking old bones and bruises this morning, I’m definitely not accustomed to physical work like ’s house-moving extravaganza.
There are bruises in the weirdest places, and my hands feel like I’ve completely lost all fine-motor coordination, picking up boxes is about all they can do. A perfect day to do nothing, laze on the couch and read the paper….
If only! A slight sleep-in then its preparation for Jack’s seventh birthday party, a cavalcade of cousins and a horde of aunts and uncles. Completely exhausting, I’m going to need a weekend to recover from the weekend.
Adrian Tritschler's stuff
My website, an agglomerative mess, probably half-eaten by a grue
Vanity site? Technology experiment? Learning tool? Blog? Journal? Diary? Photo album? I could tell you, but then I’d have to kill you…
I experiment. I play. I write and I take pictures. Some of the site is organised around topics, other parts are organized by date, then there’s always the cross-references between them.
Its all been here a fairly long time. Like the papers on my desk, or the books on the bedside table, the pile just grew… and it all grew without much plan or structure. I try not to break URLs, so historical oddities abound.
Long ago it started as a learning experiment with a few static HTML pages, then I added a bit of server-side includes and some very ugly PHP. A hand-built journal/blog on top of that PHP, then a few experiments in moving to various static publishing systems. I’ve never wanted a database-based blogging engine, so over the years I’ve tried PHP, nanoblogger, emacs-muse, silkpage and docbook before settling on Emacs Org mode for writing and jekyll for publishing. But the itch remained… I never really liked jekyll and the ruby underneath always seemed so much black magic. So now the latest incarnation is Org mode and hugo.
