Got a teeth cleaning today... my hygienist seems immune to human suffering, which I guess is a strength for her in her professions.  She's a nice enough person, she just doesn't seem to comprehend the obvious suffering of others and has no notion as to which of her  techniques is the least entirely unenjoyable. NOTE TO SELF: by sonic toothbrush and see if cleanings are not as difficult.  Also, move to maine and change doctors... we are trapped with whatever doctors the plantation hires here on the islands.

I've already been looking at the code but stayed up till 4:30am working on the code and playing sauerbraten so I didn't start till 12:30 today.  Right now I'm passing the callback dictionary back and forth that relates function names to ids in a particular send/listen exchange.  It's sent with the message so the client end gets to set the callback name with the id so that when it is returned the (spider and novem on behalf of the) client can find the actual function which has been stored by an id assigned in add_callback.

This dictionary is created in novem.send(..) which looks for functions in the "options" argument and indexes them.

4:13pm Wait a minute, it is indexed by the name in this case, only in the register is it indexed by ID, as appropriate.  But now I'll have to work through it to make sure it's in place... just cause that's how my mind works... just in case, b/c why am I confused about it?  answer me that! rhetorically speaking that is.

7:54pm listening to "What the Ancients Knew: The Chinese"  Pretty good stuff.
