Sighing a very deep sigh at the cat.

Bookshelf. All the shelves collapsed. All the books piled on the ground. The cat walking away, because clearly his work here is done.

very ouch

But we’ll get new shelves this weekend and I just ordered myself a new trackball, so all’s well that ends well.

Additionally: the impact from books crashing into the desk as the cat destroyed the shelf knocked half my coffee out of the cup, at least temporarily injuring my track wheel.

The cat’s right though. It was past time to get new bookshelves.

Slowly filters into my brain that #KEXP is playing classical music? A little Ludwig van?

These are not lap cats but they have decided my crabbiness today is a problem that must be fixed.

Got the delightful opportunity to traumatize a young person with the knowledge that yes the Eddie Murphy single may not have been great but it was so much better than Bruce Willis’s.

finally have all my content in one format

Code Sample
    content/**/*{.md,.md.txt,.rst,.rst.txt,.adoc,.adoc.txt,.org}
┌─────────┬─────┐
│Format   │Count│
├─────────┼─────┤
│.md      │48   │
│.adoc.txt│574  │
│.md.txt  │579  │
│.rst.txt │32   │
└─────────┴─────┘
  

Okay yes I also have it in several other formats. Came up with an approach where I can keep all my formats in the [base blog]1 and build whatever I prefer.

My point is that all the content that counts is available in Asciidoctor format. Better choice for me than Markdown since Asciidoctor already has built-in understanding of notes and asides. Better choice for me than reStructuredText because it’s easier to find Asciidoctor processors for assorted static site generators.
