march of the sinister ducks
Oh, god, my eyes are itching like crazy. I think it's time to go back on some sort of allergy medication. I stopped taking it because it was expensive and didn't seem to do much. It's times like these, though, where it really seems worthwhile.
It's Neil Gaiman's fault I'm listening to March of the Sinister Ducks ("They smirk at your hairstyle and sleep with your wife"). Which is by Alan Moore, oddly. You can download it yourself here. Très bizarre.
Nuts. I couldn't get away for the Robert J. Sawyer talk. Ah well. I didn't find the book I was looking for at the UW bookstore, either.
I'm taking my first timid steps into Visual C++ COM ATL crap. I'm not even sure what that means. I have to say that it's all really, really awful. I don't know how people work in this crap. I don't even know where to start. I should probably take a class or something. But honstly, how can Microsoft justify "simple" Hello World sample apps that are over 5000 lines of code? Honestly, how useful is that? *sigh*. This isn't going to be fun. For the time being I might be able to get away with C#, but I have to figure this stuff out at some point...
I think I need a vacation. I know I just had one, but I think I need another one.
