Rant #050 Sunday, July 25, 2004

It's been a busy week and will continue to be busy for the next week as well. Page 83 was done on time, though, which was virtually a miracle considering how little time there was to work on it.

There's another new song in the mp3 section. Would you believe that I stayed up all night composing it, and actually forgot to eat for all 24 hours? There's a funny thing that happens when you inadvertently starve yourself from working obsessively.... when you finally do eat, the roof of your mouth hurts for a while, from lack of usage. Very very weird. I'm sure you really wanted to know that. :P

You may have noticed Lynx hasn't updated his rant since he originally left for Alice a few weeks ago. He's been even busier than I had been, and probably won't be around for a while to come.

I've been working with ASP.NET and XML lately. When you're used to programming in PHP and MySQL, learning this entirely new method seems completely alien. Even so, the method behind it is starting to make sense, yet it's taking a long time to really be able to grasp the language and structure. Nitrocosm.com will remain PHP-based for a long, long time to come.
