about a week before october hit, i saw a post from loren about getting ready for weird web october. this was the third one to be organized (shouts out to jay) but my first time participating. i wish i had written down at the start why i wanted to try it out - i guess i was just in the right headspace at the time it came across my radar - but i'm very glad that i did it because it gave me a morning routine where i got to use and share my brain in a developery way that i hadn't since the late glitch days. my plan was simple: when i wake up and take my thyroid medicine, i need to wait an hour before i can eat or drink anything that's not water - so while i wait for my coffee time, i open up my laptop and get to work on my weird app for that day. to keep it even simpler, i chose to use p5.js as much as possible to save me time - i'm a slut for html canvas so i knew i'd be using them a lot. and most importantly, if i can't make anything that day, i wasn't allowed to get down on myself…
