Guybrush Threepwood fetches votes
Last night at dinner Karin asked me how the game, Nemo’s Helper, is going. I told her about consulting with Diego on fetch quests and detailed the one that I’ve imagined so far. I mentioned to Karin the critique that I found suggesting heroes don’t do mundane task. I feel the need to contest that…

Trying to refine some code in Scratch
Activities: reached out to Adán to see how he’s doing. Scott L. reached out to me to see how the month at Anderson Ranch went. We made a date for lunch later today. His question prompted me to look at Z-ordering in both Scratch and in Snap! for my Seeds of Solitude remake. I can’t…

ARAC Day 21
At some point I spent more time with Mid Journey. I printed two more copies of of the submarine onto Canson Vidalon. This paper has too much ink hold-out. There is not enough dry time between print-head passes, even though I slowed it down in the advance settings. It may be possible to further manipulate…

ARAC Day 20
Today I learned about my niece’s diagnosis. My brother called, shattered, in the morning. I had to subordinate my emotions to try and work. It wouldn’t be fair to anyone at the ranch to have an emotional breakdown. I called Karin and that helped a great deal. We, Ricky and I, had a meeting with…
