I tried doing street the boring way and it worked for absolute beginners

I started this because my busy month felt a little stuck, and editing seemed like a manageable place to experiment. The funny part is that the smallest change was the one I kept.

Part of me wanted the fancy version with all the tools. The better version was boring: one notebook, one reminder, and a willingness to be clumsy with the prototype for a while.

I tried this in Buenos Aires with a friend and we both noticed the same thing: the social part mattered more than the perfect plan.
