Busy being lazy
My life has been awfully busy lately. So busy, in fact, that I haven’t updated my journal in ages.
But that comes to an end (albeit temporarily), right… now.
So what *have* I been busy doing?
Well, I’ve been playing around in Macromedia Flash 8 in an attempt to learn it.
I’ve also started my very first open source programming project up on Sourceforge!
It’s basically just a program that when you punch in a phone number, will search the white pages and return the person’s name and address information. It doesn’t work with cell phone numbers yet, but maybe some day it will.

Another thing I’ve been doing is reading. Yup. I’ve been getting back into the whole book scene again after years of hardly reading a thing. I meandered around the bookstores, reading everything from philosophy to children’s novels. I finally finished the latest Harry Potter book, as well as the #1 best seller novel this year, “Eragon”. I intend to start on the sequel, “Eldest”, here in the next couple of days.
My mind has lain stagnant for too long.
On a side note, my birthday is in 3 days. I’ll be 22 on the 24th. yay.

Yeah. man. Where’ve you been?
Nice. I’ve been trying to read more recently, too. It expands the brain.
HAPPY HAPPY birthday. =) Don’t worry. I hadn’t forgotten.

I just bought Flash 3 for a dollar at a garage sale. I was really looking for something like Photoshop 7 maybe even 8, but I just don’t have the connections.
Man, it’s been so long since I’ve really READ a book. I may be forgetting how to read lol. I started “Armageddon the Musical” but I just couldn’t stay with it. I’m thinking about re-reading the Hitchhiker’s Guide series again. There were five books, ya know.
See ya around, maybe.
