I came to Noisebridge for the Tuesday night Ruby class and stayed for the MakerBots. I printed a tiny open-source violin, and then a hairclip with stars that was popular on thingiverse. It was sort of hard to get it to work — the machine with the red material has some trouble maintaining a constant… Continue reading noisebridge, day 1

Last Saturday (March 12), I went to hang out with Courtney for his birthday. Part of the day’s activities (after rock band at Elvin’s) included a one-hour visit to the House of Air, a trampoline park at Crissy Field. It’s $14/hr to jump on their trampolines. You have to sign a waiver before entering, and… Continue reading Ankle

Today, I visited Dilworth, my old elementary school. I went there K-6. This used to be my favorite thing to do. It’s been a really long time. Here we have the map we used for States tag. Wheee! Lying on the grass at nearby Rainbow Park, earlier in the day.

Here I am in Seattle. I twisted my knee getting into my seat on the plane (ha ha) so I hobbled around yesterday in one of Jenny’s many flavors of knee brace. I followed her to school one day, school one day, school one day, baaa, I’m a little lamb. Uh. Ahem. She had class… Continue reading Untitled
