Note to self, write blog post before taking sleeping pill.

Most of my updating is done on Twitter, but I figured since it’s the end of the semester and Christmas is coming up, I’ll post an update on stuff that’s been happening.

Work on OrtzIRC is still really slow, more so lately because of end-of-semester stuff, but it’s still moving. I’m almost ready for a first release. It might not be alpha though.

My cat went missing. It’s been over two weeks so I don’t think we’ll be finding him. He was my favorite of any cat I’ve ever had so I’m pretty sad about this.

I’ve decided that I’ve been ignoring my guitar playing way too much. My playing hasn’t gotten any better in years. When you have to understate how long you’ve been playing by a couple years to avoid embarrassment, something is wrong. So lately I’ve been attempting to learn fingerpicking. I’ve also decided to learn music theory finally.

The Hulu desktop thing decided it doesn’t want to show me Stargate SG-1 episodes anymore. I’ve been using it to watch starting from season 1. I’m on season 6 so far.
