Yes, that’s right. Wimbledon started today (though NBC coverage doesn’t start until Saturday). I have strawberries. I have cream. I have tea. Heck, I even have Pimms. Life is good.
On the whole coding front, it seems that in my excitement to learn how to code by picking a project and diving right in, I’ve forgotten how inadequate my familiarity with MySQL, and the structure of internet apps in general, is. After spending far too much time trying to figure out why I can’t access MySQL from the command line on my local machine (or the simpler problem of what’s wrong with my sidebar), I’ve decided that I’m going to stop coding for at least a week, maybe two (to fully enjoy Wimbledon, perhaps). To avoid the temptation even, I’m going to stay away from any kind of personal computer in the meantime. When I come back, hopefully I’ll have a fresh mind and more patience to start from the very beginning.
So how do I plan on occupying myself in my copious spare time (besides watching Wimbledon)? Well, perhaps this is a good time to read Les Misérables (in English, despite the italics and accent mark), as per Max and Palmyra’s suggestion. I’ll also be trying to work on German (without the Tagesschau podcasts), and getting myself into a decent sleep schedule. I’ve also got some papers that I want to go through, and some health forms to fill out for HUHS. So I’ll see you, my nonexistent readers, in a couple of weeks!
