Typing this on the computer to get this out ASAP. Woke up late and got ready late. Dad bought some combination buns for breakfast so I had one alongside a cup of some leftover coffee from yesterday, the latter microwaved, and actually still tasted quite good; I think I got a solid bag of beans this time around; no acridity, and even a little bit of brightness near the end of the cup. Bug bites on my ear and my right middle finger middle joint acting up today, go figure. Had work from 11:30 to 8:15. Most customers were quite friendly, though I have to mention it was still a bit slow today. Dad went to Costco and swung by the store with some pizza; I had a couple of slices, as did my uncles and my younger brother. Read a little bit of The Old Man and the Sea, but I didn't play much on my 3DS. Watched a couple talks on information management and the memex, and read Vannevar Bush's "As We May Think" for myself. I don't think any note-taking application can be a memex, nor should it; the memex already exists, and it is the internet augmented with annotation features (e.g. from Hypothesis) and your own internal map of relations between quotes and ideas across the web. What interested me about the memex was that it seemed to be more towards collating and contextualizing information rather than developing knowledge, the latter of which is an infamous goal of Luhmann-style Zettelkastens with a triarchic bibliography/index/maincard box. Dinnertime -- grandma made some steamed egg and pork, which was really delicious with a few chance veggies like broccoli and raw water spinach. I slightly wish I didn't eat the pizza earlier, so I could instead have eaten more veggies. Oh well -- leftovers are for tomorrow. God, I'm beat. And it's only Monday.
