meditation timer finally finally done

##17:15 Saturday 14 March 2015 JST##

Two years ago I decided I would make a meditation time for iOS so I could inspire myself to meditate daily. It took ten days (according to git) and had all the features I needed: set the desired countdown time, count down, then count up after the time had finished!

That way, if I was having a good meditation, I could keep going *and know how long I continued*!! Genius!

Super excited, also because it was open source, I submitted my fantastic project to Apple.

It was summarily rejected as being too simple.

So, recently, I decided to rewrite it in Unity. Work on that project spans 10 hours, according to git, but I never really finished the project, and definitely didn't get it working on my phone.

Today, I decided to do it as a static site. With Middleman. Fortunately, middleman init failed. After that, fortunately, pelican-quickstart failed as well. I say fortunately, because, quite obviously to me now, all that extra crap was just crap.

I only have a little bit of extra crap now with my new meditation timer:

瞑想頑張れ

Source code is available on both Bitbucket and Github (because I couldn't get thunderrabbit.bitbucket.org/meisogambare to work)

https://bitbucket.org/thunderrabbit/meisogambare

Weird. I see now that my description is labeled "Status" instead of "Description", or rolled into the About.

Anyway, yay! Only 200 minutes to finish today, which included a lot of web surfing and doing 100 pushups!
