Beautiful Friday

· Maine Event

Today was a busy workday, with various problems cropping up everywhere. Some days I feel like all I do is work on other people's issues, and I don't get to my own work. Anyway, it was a beautiful day in the low 70s with ocean breezes. The city has been looking mighty fine.

We worked late last night on seeing if we could get our apps to work in RTL languages. Guess what, I'm married to a genius, and it's working for Arabic!

How do we live with not enough snow to keep our water for later in the year? This year is very worrisome for wildfires and smoke.

Here is an interesting article on the long-term effects of tear gas and other crowd-control chemicals. Heads up to all your protest buddies!

6:51 am – 7:34 pm, which is 12 hours and 43 minutes of daylight!

The bird of the day was the Marbled Murrelet

Here is a poem for you.

Sending oodles of love,
