Garden Walk Day One
Category: pets
The bird and I just took nap. I am tired after a busy day of the garden walk. I didn't actually go to any gardens but people came here because we are on it this year.

We didn't get many visitors because we aren't in a cluster but a lot of my family members stopped by which was great. Surprisingly our street has very few gardens on the walk.

The tortoise was an even bigger hit than the garden. I pretty much spent the whole day feeding him fruits to entertain people. We were like a circus side show.

My mom came by and made fried zucchini flowers that we half picked from the garden and half bought from the farmers market. We paired it with avenue boys sausage from the farmers market and beans from the garden. The whole thing was delicious.

I wish I took more pictures but I was so busy I forgot.

That Bird is crazy.... I was thinking about hitting up linwood but it looked like your guys place was about 1 of 2... It is amazing to see how different people do things differently these I thought they where 2 hot women turns out it was 3 I think in one place one of them had wine one had a little kid and one had a little dog.... Not a wine drinker but sounds like the way to go for me....

Family trip to Jim's at 2:30am
Category: food
Considering I ate some egg, a slice of watermelon and a yogurt in the last 24 hours - I think a chicken finger club and fries is in order.

Ya I think its because the photo coloring is all off.
metalpeter - 07/30/11 18:54
I Myself don't do the chicken finger thing but Jim's is awesome....

Estrip android app
Category: programming
I was working on an update to the estrip android app which checks for network connectivity first instead and displays a nice little message instead of force quitting. I added this little homage to (e:tinypliny) who is the one that discovered the issue as I had never tried the app on a device with no network connection.

Just to give you an idea how unusual this is on a mobile android device - this is the message for the google marketplace. I think mine looks better.

Okay so the message is appearing when I disconnect from wifi altogether by turning off the wifi but earlier when I was connected to an extremely weak wifi the older message appeared. I will update you if this happens again.
paul - 08/01/11 17:59
Are you sure you have version 1.17

What happens in airplane mode.
tinypliny - 08/01/11 17:33
Somehow I don't see this pretty message... It still shuts down when I am not connected to the network
paul - 07/30/11 19:29
Did it work?
paul - 07/30/11 02:02
Should be version 1.17 it showed up on (e:mike)'s phone.
tinypliny - 07/30/11 00:15
Its not turning up in the list of updates. Do I uninstall and then install it?
paul - 07/29/11 23:54
Okay, the app is updated :::link::: go and get it.
tinypliny - 07/29/11 18:53
haha. awesome. I was really surprised you could pull off such a nifty trick. I don't even know 1/8th of the things that phone can do.

My new friend birdo
Category: pets
He doesn't have a name yet but he is so cute. He is actually (e:matthew)'s pet but he sat on my shoulder for like an hour and kept giving me kisses. He is so snuggly and cute compared to the rock. I hope the rock doesn't eat him.

Since they are rimless they actually look pretty awesome. Dinky frames make people look petty.
tinypliny - 08/20/11 15:17
I like your glasses.
tinypliny - 07/29/11 20:01
I know you told me but what kind of a bird is he? You should teach him to speak!
tinypliny - 07/29/11 20:00
hehe, that gif is hilarious.
metalpeter - 07/29/11 17:41
Since he has what looks like a MoHawk or hove ever you spell it start there?
tinypliny - 07/29/11 15:41
HAHAHA @ new avatar! You should try and make him dance and speak.
tinypliny - 07/29/11 15:40
He probably thinks you are all next of kin.
tinypliny - 07/29/11 15:40
That is so cute! Too bad s/he was trying to sleep yesterday while we had all that linux drama. Birdo might have known the answer!
