Having spent a decent portion of today talking about programming with rakaur and dKingston, I feel I have the urge to actually do some programming.  I do that for my job, of course, but that’s not really what I’m talking about.  I’ve been doing that all day today, and while it’s nice to get a task done, writing database interfaces for government processes isn’t exactly illustrious.  I don’t hate my job, though the people I work with can be, shall we say, frustrating; I just want to do something other than this.

Recently, I went off the deep end and acquired an iPhone, which I’m almost certain heralds the apocalypse in some way.  However, it presents an interesting opportunity: I could learn another language and actually write some interesting things.  I’m assuming the ideas for those things will come later, after the learning part.  The more important thing is to actually do something new, while I have the vibe for it.

Also, I never posted those things I promised I would a week or two ago.  Turns out, I had no Internet connection.  Of course, now I’ve totally lost interest in them.  One’s written up, but it’s terrible, so I guess I’ll post it, and just trash the other.
