## Jan 17, 2019

Some quick updates:

* Realizing I got the year wrong on the title of my last entry. It's 2019, not 2018!
* Feeling great! At coffee shop with my girlfriend today for a change of scenery.
* Just got back from a 4 day trip to Rome. Great vacation. Got some sun, had great tomato sauce and pasta, relaxed, and Tweeted. We may go back for a longer trip (a couple of weeks) to live and work there for the sun and food while London is gloomy.
* London is sunny today so I will run this afternoon.
* I had a wonderful call with Conal Elliott on Monday. Along with JE's prodding, I decided to try my hand at an essay explaining DCTP and Conal's vision, and maybe submit to Salon de Refuge.
* Great call with JE yesterday. Going to continue with hareactive, turbine, etc, but mostly waiting to talk to Simon Friis Vindum and team after their exams are finished on the 25th of Jan. Making a hareactive canvas library sounds fun. JE also suggested finishing 7GUIs and the devtools together which is a great idea.
* Spent a good amount of last week researching Smalltalk for Dark, which I hope to publish at some point. Will need to figure out with them when the next session will be. Maybe in two weeks? Maybe TLA+? 
* Excited to host an online FoC meetup Sunday night GMT. Not sure how to structure it... will figure something out...
