Templater, Dataview, Javascript, Dataview Javascript (DVJS), Callouts, Callouts with inline query syntax, oh my! The more I play with Obsidian and its features/plug-ins, the deeper the rabbit hole goes. Just ask my partner: while he's playing "Civilization VI" on his computer or "Final Fantasy Tactics"on the TV, I'm losing myself in the world of Obsidian. I can't tell you how long it has been since something has engrossed me this much, and it's only the beginning. Days, eveni

I've been doing a thing! This is actually a slightly older version of my template, but it's a good example of what I'm working with. Before we get into the thick of it, I have very little history with any kind of coding language. I learned some HTML back when Quizilla still existed, I know Markdown well enough to get by, and I studied a smidge of Python before rage quitting when I was quizzed on concepts that were never discussed in the lessons. JavaScript, therefore, was a d

Yesterday, November 6th, Cael performed the 2nd half of Teyr'loch Delter Pach for their father, almost a year after its conception. "Why yesterday?" you might ask. "Weren't you supposed to have the session on Sunday?" Indeed, and under normal circumstances, we would have had the session on Sunday, and I would have written my blog as usual on Wednesday, but it was another abnormal week. A Year of Death Earlier in the year, I often heard friends talk about the failing health of

I'll admit it. I don't know what to write about this week. Oh, I've plenty of thoughts running amok in my head, and I've accomplished most of my usual tasks, but I have nothing new or insightful really to share at the moment. Mostly, "Yup, another week of keeping my nose to the grindstone." With a little bit of luck mixed in with the work I've already been putting in, I should be ready for the concluding half of Teyr'loch Delter Pach come Sunday. I've edited the most problem

To keep the momentum going from the post-vacation return to normalcy, I figured I'd go ahead and write a brief overview of my accomplishments, the bulk of which I completed yesterday and today. Teyr'loch Delter Pach We did manage to get through the first half of the Teyr'loch Delter Pach during our vacation, and as of right now, I have a soft goal to finish editing, putting together, and possibly performing the 2nd half by the end of the month. The first half took the longes

Since my partner is on vacation and we have a busy week ahead of us, I won't be going as in-depth with this post as I would like, which saddens me a hair because this week was a treasure trove of learning and accomplishments. While there's a slim chance I might blog next week, I'm skeptical that'll actually happen. That said, I've been continuing my trend from last week and staying up waaaaay too late playing with Obsidian and reading/watching tutorials for Templater. As some
