Driving around Japan was wonderful and super scary at the same time. Drove on the left side of the road for the first time yesterday! All of my being was fighting the urge to get on the right side of the road. It was also a little challenging to figure out distance on the left side of the car.

I have ordered Kobo Libra Colour. This is my first Kobo and I'm pretty excited about it. I have gone with a third-party case. I'm holding off from purchasing their Stylus 2 for now. I might purchase that in a month or two.

• 🐛🧹 Fixed an issue with years being cut off on the charts, so I kept it simple and removed the year. Also tweaked the chart to just show the text "Views" and "Unique" to make it a little shorter.
I'd love to make a web based journaling app — I have some great ideas, and a domain name, but I know that I'll never use it... that's already the first red flag... although, hmmm, maybe it would make me start because sometimes I just want to write to let go of things (hence I blog).
Too much sugar lately. Christmas time = lots of sweets 🍬 My guts are feeling it.
• 👾🚀 Added preliminary support for shortcodes within the editor. This is super basic right now. For YouTube embeds use: `{{yt:1234567}}` with 123456 being the video code, similar you can also add Vimeo: `{{vimeo:1234567}}`. Next year I will work on a more dynamic way to pick a shortcode where it allows you to just add it without trying to remember. Of note, embeds within text will not work, so they have to be added on their own line. Still a little experimental.
