The mini pies worked! They even came out of the muffin tin really well! Probably because I coated the whole thing in melted butter, but I never said I was baking heart-healthy foods. I gave about half to stepbrother (who is also a mechanic and helps keep my car going), and then ate perhaps too many over the weekend.

In-person D&D got cancelled because the DM got the flu, but I would have had to bail anyway due to car issues. I need several things replaced and they're a pain in the ass to get to, so stepbrother is doing it over two weekends, and starting last Saturday.

Instead of D&D, I cut a fair amount of fabric and got two more prints ready to be cut this week. I know I won't do certain things during the week, but cutting diamonds from pre-cut strips is totally a thing I will do after work, so I got strips ready to go.

I also unearthed my previous phone, gave it a factory reset, installed 8tracks and now have a supercharged ipod-like device. If I use my actual phone, it kills the battery because I'm also doing normal phone things on it; using the old phone (Dump Shuttle) just for tunes means my phone stays alive and I still get music without irritating my neighbors further.

Yay for pies, and a big yay for repurposing old technology.

I was really happy it worked! I figured I had nothing to lose by trying, I hadn't even looked at the old phone once the new one was synched.

Awesome. Very happy that the tech could make a second life happen.
