Productive

1:48pm JST Wednesday 27 October 2010 (day 14826)

1. helped relieve Soness's blog backlog

2. Jessica にお邪魔しました. oops!

3. shaved my head

4. about to work on jsonp

4:44pm JST

I got much further in the project today; I can view all records, delete a record, and display one to edit, all via json requests from the server. Last step is to save a record via json. So far I have it encoded and sent to the server, but the server can't yet decode it.

Well, actually it decodes down to a serialized string, but not beyond that; I need to deserialize the string and put it into an array. I wonder if there's a function for that, but right now I'm not online.

Taiko!!!

8:51pm JST Wednesday 27 October 2010 (day 14826)

Thanks to Colleen being awesome and coming to Japan, meeting Cyndi who is almost as awesome (98% as much?), we are in a taiko fucking drumming class!!!

Actually, after 1.5 hours of lesson, I'm chillin' on the side, and Colleen is too, but *she* is playing the air drums and paying attention, which makes sense because she exclaimed, "I've just found my new hobby!!"

Good thing she lives in a city that's likely to have a taiko group or two.

This instructor has been playing for 26 years, and recently taught The Black Eyed Peas on their recent tour to Japan.

And *now*, after having a lovely dinner in an 井境や, paid for by the lovely Divi and Cyndi, they have Colleen who will do taiko with Cyndi again tomorrow, and I'm heading home.

HI _____

I hope you're doing well.

After I solved the cross-server problem I was having, this took about
3 more working hours to finish.   Clearly, my overall time was more
than 5 hours, but most of that was researching how to do cross-server
ajax requests, which I hadn't had to do in ________.  My total time
spent on this was 14 hours (including research).   As we will be
working as a team, we'll greatly reduce the amount of time doing this
type of research.  :-)

   Talk to you soon
