Fri Oct 17 10:00:01 UTC 2025 ======================================== Slept from twelve-thirty to eight. Woke briefly around six. Mostly cloudy with a 30 percent chance of showers. Highs in the mid 60s. South winds up to 10 mph. Started reading Adrian Tchaikovsky's Shards of Earth. So far, a good, gritty space opera. Matt Russell says the possible contract they might have for me is looking good. Fingers crossed. Thirty-minute walk at mid day. Cool and mostly cloudy. Saw Canada geese and blue jays. Lots of fallen leaves, more trees changing color. Mom stopped by and we chatted for a few minutes. My paid Kagi subscription ran out. Back to free crappy search engines for now. 🙁 Servings: grains 3/6, fruit 0/4, vegetables 4/4, dairy 0/2, meat 2/3, nuts 1/0.5 Brunch: potato chips Lunch: Japanese curry Dinner: left-over Japanese curry
