Last year in January I wanted to blog more. I wanted to do it in html, css and javascript, but without the tediousness of maintaining index.html lists of all the pages I’d written. I wrote a webserver to handle lots of boilerplate andrew, wrote posts on playtechnique.io and I was satisfied.

I finally learn to touch type
I can touch type, but not properly. I use weird fingering, with a bias towards a few fingers. I bought a keyboard.io split keyboard to fix this with.
I put on the beef
I’m decently strong for a natural, self-taught lifter, but I’m not lean. I want muscularity to be my thing. My blocker here’s primarily not knowing how to transition from Diet to daily maintenance without immediately putting on fat.
