I'm working (still) on my emacs-based e-mail client mu4e (github). It's been a lot of fun so far (and a great learning experience); and I can combine a project for learning with improving a tool that I use all the time.

Also, reading quite a bit. After going through a series of rock-star biographies and some Dennett, Pinker, I went back to fiction; Truman Capote (In Cold Blood) and Hunter S. Thompson (Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas), and I'm now reading Rand's Atlas Shrugged. It's long, near self-parody and preachy, but somewhere there's a kernel of an interesting dystopian science-fiction story. Oh well.

Finally, I may need to start looking for some new way to make money in a few months. I'm studying my options.
