I don’t think of myself as a particularly spacey. Yet the older I get, the spacier I get. Just this week I showed up at the wrong time for my daughter’s hair cut. Apparently I had it confused it with my hair appointment 2 days later. Sigh. Can I blame being a mom?
Chocolate Chip Mandelbrot for an Exercise in Mandelbrot Fractal Generation
