As it is approximately 6:30 a.m., I started writing. I have an ear appointment today, so I’m in the city. Tommy dropped me off at McDonald’s. Usually, I would go to the Starbucks next door, but they have converted their store into a grab-and-go store. They’ve removed all the tables and chairs and no longer…

I’m not short, everyone is just taller than me
I usually don’t dwell on the fact that I’m short. It’s just one aspect of who I am and often a minor detail in my daily life. But there are moments when it really stands out. Because our car was in for servicing, Kel was driving her dad’s truck. Although we got our car back…
Low-key day
I have completed the rock, paper, scissors project. You can view it at https://desertkitten.github.io/rock_paper_scissors/. While I am uncertain if everything is implemented correctly, the game functions as expected. I had to search for a lot of help on Google, and I am grateful for the availability of such resources. I vividly recall when we didn’t…
On a spectrum
I’m writing this in Kel’s dad’s truck while going down to the city to meet Tommy. I spent the morning engrossed in an article by Mary H.K. Choi, in which she candidly shared her experience of being diagnosed with autism in her 40s. As I read her story, I couldn’t help but see myself reflected…
Reminiscing
On Thursday, Tommy and I went on a 5-mile hike. The uphill sections were quite challenging, and by the end, I was struggling to finish. It was quite an adventure. Even the downhill parts had their own challenges, as we had to be careful not to lose footing. In the evening, we celebrated the Fourth…
Happy Wednesday!
I’m writing a bit sooner than I usually do. We have resumed working on the Rock, Paper, Scissors project. I need to implement a user interface (UI) so that the game can be played in a web browser instead of just the console. I have completed the HTML portion and am working on the JavaScript…
Hobbies
I had a productive day tackling JavaScript exercises. While it was enjoyable, a few exercises were perplexing. Today marks Kel’s mom’s return from the hospital after a few weeks of being there. I’m relieved that she’s doing better now. As for my day, I have a little to report. I really need to dive into…
Unicorn cake
On Friday, I completed the Rock, Paper, Scissors project. Overall, it wasn’t too challenging, but I encountered an issue getting the game to play on the console. I don’t know what I was doing wrong. Today, we’re practicing some Javascript exercises involving loops and arrays, and I’m still working on them. Tommy is making a…
Hearing
I must create a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors in JavaScript. This game will be entirely played on the console. I think the game will go something like this: A function to randomly select the computer’s choice. A function to determine the winner based on the user’s and computer’s choices. A primary function is to…
Birthday
Today is my birthday. So, I thought I’d look up some birthday facts: Birthday Celebrations Origin: The tradition of celebrating birthdays dates back to ancient Egypt, where Pharaohs were honored on their “birthday” – the day they were coronated and considered gods. Birthday Candles: The tradition of placing candles on birthday cakes is believed to…
