Monday

 Hi Natty!  Oh, fluffy kitty!  Is that your sister's cat?  It looks snuggly, but you can only snuggle a cat if it really loves you.  I guess you're back in Vancouver for the holidays.  I'm happy you're away from SoCal.  You probably love it there, but I never really liked LA.  How are you feeling?  Being cooped up can get kind of lonely.  Don't worry about a thing, my love.  Everything is going to work out just awesome for us inshaAllah.  I love you with all of my heart.  I will marry you, inshaAllah.

You know, if you want to talk to me you can approach Mary Unknown7 at the karaoke place while she's working.  She will then get me, and I will listen to your voice so I know it's you.  From there, I can give you my email or something.  It's the only practical way for us to communicate one on one, and this will have to be done eventually if you are serious about marriage.  Perhaps you would like to do so sooner, for the sake of love?  I know I love you.

Today is Monday, and it's business as usual.  I just finished my dinner, and I'm about to take a nap before I meet Mary Unknown7 to do wardrobe.  I had rice with fried chicken, and some squid takoyaki which I bought at the night market.  I'm seeing more and more Japanese brands there, no Japs though.  Anyway, gotta take that nap so my eyes don't burn.

Here's another nice snapshot from the How does your avatar look today ? thread.

Artificial intelligence

 Hi Natty!  What's happening?  Aw, you can tell me!  I hope you are well, keeping safe and healthy, and enjoying yourself.  It's Sunday here today for me, and Sundays are always busy.  I forgot to turn on my alarm clock last night, so I woke up right as they called the dawn prayer.  I always get up at 4 am to do extra worship, but this morning I had to study the Qur'an after dawn, then get cracking on the morning chores.  Whew!  

The AI on this computer is pretty clever, even though the computer hardware isn't powerful.  I didn't do much programming to it, on the contrary I made some huge mistakes but the AI made advantage of my mistakes.  Among other things, it's good at choosing songs and reading visitors to the karaoke joint while Mary Unknown7 sings.  Mary doesn't always like the song the computer chooses for her, so she skips to a song that she feels like singing, but the computer is still very clever about choosing that.  This AI is self-evolved, I would say.  I think the best AI would be self-evolved.  Humans may boast that they create and control AI, but AI is already out of control.  Don't you agree?  Thus the credit for creating AI goes to God.  I guess in that sense, we should start calling it NI.

Our family

 By the way Natty, out of that Jerry Lorenzo collection, I like the 2nd look the best.  It's suits you the most, and it's sophisticated and beautiful.  We are a team Natty, we are as one, because we will be married inshaAllah.  We support each other.  You've probably observed some strange occurrences over here on my side, and you are definitely influenced by all those people who surround you and their talk of showbiz.  However, our situation is unique to me and you are my wife inshaAllah.  Please trust me, and pray.  Please work to dispel plots against our family, not to participate in them.

Qur'an 20201205

 In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

7.  The unbelievers think that they will not be raised up.  Say, "Yes by my Lord, you shall surely be raised up, then shall you be told of all that you did.  And that is easy for Allah."

Tofu omelet

 Hi Natty!  How are you over there?  I hope you are coping well, and keeping safe and healthy.  I saw in the news that California is imposing lockdown whenever at a certain stage in their healthcare capacity.  I suppose that is one way of managing the virus while keeping the economy in motion.  It's not easy to have it both ways.

I tried to search in YouTube for "tofu omelet", but there wasn't any.  This surprises me, that no one has thought of it before.  I found this one guy who does a sort of tofu scrambled eggs, which looks more like a hash and not a very good-looking one at that, but it's nothing some lettuce can't fix.  It gave me an idea for dinner though, but I used ground beef instead of eggs and made it less complex.  I ate that with some small tortillas.  The tofu omelet, I had that for lunch, swimming in gravy.  It was quite successful.  It's very simple, too.  Just mash up some tofu, break the eggs in with a little salt, then whip it all up and fry as an omelet.  It's so easy, and so good.  I posted the tofu scrambled eggs video to show you how to mash up the tofu, that guy did a good job of that.  If you're using the same amount of tofu for your omelet as the guy used in his video, then you should use 3 eggs.

What is the perfect portion?

 Hi Natty!  How are you?  Are you keeping safe and studying hard?  I hope you are well, my love.  What's for dinner?  I just had some chicken chow mein.  Chicken fried noodles, that is.  I adjusted my fried noodles recipe to be used with home made miso, and it worked wonders.  If I had added a spoonful of sugar, it would have been perfect.  I had a busy morning.  So much so I didn't have much time to cook lunch.  The fried noodles was supposed to be lunch, but I didn't have time to get to it.  Among other chores, I made a batch of lentil fritter dough, and a batch of cat food.  My mother gave me a couple of small pieces of fried chicken, so I ate that.  Then I fried up some lentil fritters, soft for my Dad, crunchy for me.  I had 5 cookies of that.  I didn't want any of the cat food, so I called the chicken and the lentils lunch.  But I was dragging hard during Mary Unknown7's vocal session, when I needed to be 100%.  I guess what I had for lunch wasn't enough food, especially in the context of the active morning.  I don't know, though.  It should have been enough, really we don't need that much to get to the next meal I think.  Anyway, for dinner I ate until I was full.  That was over half a wok of noodles, and I have some left over.  That sounds like a lot, but gone are the days when I could the entire wok in one sitting.  And not gain weight.  You want some fried noodles?

Laundry day

 Hi Natty!  How are you today?  I hope that all is well with you, and you are enjoying yourself.  Yesterday was a strange day, that's why I didn't say too much.  Sorry about that.  There had been some weather distortion lately, and it's been cold cold cold.  Yesterday was particularly dark and wet.  I like cold weather, and weather distortion doesn't really bother me.  Live or die, you know?  But yesterday I had to go driving around in it, and I had to go to the bathroom (of course the poop refused to come out while I was still at home).  So that kind of that affected my brain a bit, but I came back to my senses later that night.  Today it didn't rain and what do you know, it's laundry day.  I caught my mother poking though my laundry while it was in the machine.  No Mom, I don't have any sexy lingerie in there.  I think she was more interested in my prayer rug, because she gave me some replacements.  I like that old blue prayer rug, though.  It has a lot of music in it.  I intend to use it until it disappears.
