2019-10-13 - Nice day ------------------------------------------------------------------- I had a really nice Sunday. Did my usual running and some body weight exercises. Then went for a bike ride, and then went walking around in a small forest. As it is autumn, the forest is beautiful. And because the weather has been quite moist, mushrooms can be found everywhere. I spend quite some time walking around, just looking at all of the different mushrooms. I also found some really nice small local spots with lots of moss and lichen. For example, i saw a small - and really rough looking - oak tree on a small ledge which was covered with all types of different mosses. The trunk of the tree was covered with lichen. And everything was fresh and moist from recent rainfall. It's always really cool how a lot of concentrated mosses looks like a miniature landscape on it's own. If you pretend the moss to be trees, you can imagine being a giant overlooking a huge forest. I can admire these things for a long time. Maybe i should make some pictures next time, as it would be a bit easier to explain. Today it was a particularly beautiful day for making pictures. It had been raining earlier, but the sun was out when i visited. Making the forest feel (and smell) very nice, while the sun was filling everything with a nice orange yellow light. I should definitely go out more often. :) In the evening i did a bit of C programming. Nothing special. Still working on a very simple ASCII library thing. I will put that here when it's finished. I kinda like that i have decided to solely program in C. It makes it much easier to focus. So instead of hopping from one thing to the next, C is just the goto language for everything; even when it is not sensible. But that just stops me to drifting to Python, and Perl and Go and Awk and whatever really. As a consequence, what is nice, is that i have already quite a lot of ideas of cool things i can try to program. But also here, it is important to stay focused, and choose small and easy projects. Anyhow. I'm happy to feel happy today! :)
