12:30. Got up. Put on pajamas. Went downstairs. Mom was already cooking macaroni. Got a can of Bubly. Took my meds.
Watched Rick and Morty. Went upstairs. Plugged in electric menorah. Ate a banana. Mom started making macaroni.
Ate four slices of avocado toast and had a cup of tea with soy milk and sugar. Had a cup of hot cocoa made with soy milk.
Went to Price Chopper, got pimientos and green beans, and a Pepsi. Went to Love's, picked up Mom's Christmas lights from Amazon.
15:30. Returned home. Mom mixed the pimientos into the macaroni. Had a plate of macaroni with peas. Helped Mom set up her Christmas lights.
Today I learned Travis and Jason Kelce are not playing against each other in tomorrow's game; they're sitting on the bench. This is for the sake of peace in the home.
Asked for help getting UCM config working on GNU Guix. No response.
17:00. Switched keyboard layout to U.S. Dvorak again! Someone in
#emacs suggested Jupyter for literate programming.
Someone mentioned Vim, and it reminded me of a video about a Vim
user who switched to GNU Emacs with Evil Mode.
18:40. Watched Psychic Kids: Children of the Paranormal with Mom.
19:00. Night Theme Switcher finally changed my desktop to dark mode. Posted about my UCM config issue with Miller the Chromebook. Found more pig wallpapers for dark mode. Settled on a photo of two pigs in a cage.
20:18. Wrote to the GNU LibreJS team, to possibly add support for the COIL, for Zerock. I wish he'd use a normal software license. Mom is crying; she and Jim were talking too much about Grandma. We miss her.
21:00. Trying to package chromebook-ucm-conf using
alsa-ucm-conf as a template. This is all I've got. I don't know
what to do about the hash; I don't know how to generate it, or what to
generate it on.

supposed to go. I don't know how to get files into
/usr/share/alsa/ucm2/conf.d/ from this package definition. Not sure
how to use copy-build-system.
21:50. Ate some more macaroni. Ate all the macaroni that wasn't put away into a container for the fridge. Two plates.
22:32. Trying to figure out how to get the hash for my package
definition, so I can try to build it. I believe I got it using guix download.

that common goes into ucm2 and that glk goes into
/usr/share/alsa/ucm2/conf.d/. I think I did it.

23:03. Mom went to bed. I got the package to build. I had to add a few lines after some trial and error. Thanks to the helpful error messages!
