Tue Aug 30 07:57:22 EDT 2016 Slept from around eleven to seven. High of eighty-six and partly sunny. Goals Work: - Investigate Asterisk incident A bit. - Add latest script to dns notes Done. - Tidy email inbox Done. Twenty minute walk at lunch. Mostly overcast. Heard cicada. Saw a little white butterfly. Installed new switches, which hopefully will help with the rare Yealink "network unavailable" issue. Home: - Drain-o tub Done. - Laundry Done. - Finish monster attacks in D&D mini rules Nope. Hmm. Rather than "abridged" or "minified", what I'm actually going for is "concentrated". I should use the term "concentrated" as part of the title or subtitle. The D&D email list picked up again. Lori (and presumably her husband too) bowed out for the time being. Sounds like everyone else is pretty enthusiastic for another session though, possibly on the eleventh or eighteenth. http://jvns.ca/blog/2016/08/29/how-i-made-a-zine/ http://monsterbrains.blogspot.com/2016/08/der-orchideengarten-1919-1921.html "Der Orchideengarten ('The Orchids-garden'; subtitled Phantastische Blätter or 'Fantastic Pages') was a German magazine that was published for 51 issues from January 1919 until November 1921. Founded four years before the American magazine Weird Tales was initiated in March 1923, Der Orchideengarten is considered to be the first fantasy magazine. Also described as largely 'supernatural horror', it was edited by World War I correspondent and freelance writer Karl Hans Strobl and Alfons von Czibulka, published by Dreiländerverlag. It had 24 pages per issue printed on rough book paper. Took a fifteen minute walk just after dark. Crickets and cicadas. Saw a firefly. Breakfast: mixed greens, carrots, coffee with half-and-half, yogurt Lunch: mixed nuts and an apple Dinner: Tubby's sub and fries
