Reader’s Vette

Here’s LRN2 with his new new car.  Sadly, he decided to trade in his old new car for this one.  Still, I think he’ll be satisfied with this one.  Great Art taken at the Salt Lake auto show in January and part of my famous Machinery series.

No post yesterday. Our friend Art was over for the evening again – we sure enjoy hanging with him.  His wife Cathie is still out of town, and there’s no telling when she’ll get back.  So Art comes over basically every Monday evening.  Maybe we’ll have to invite them together when her long sojourn is finally over.

Now the big news.  Fluffy is gone.  That’s right, our Loyal Snake has been re-adopted.  She’s now the pet of a nice lady who works at the Serpentarium in Lodi.  So she knows her snakes.  And she fell in love with Fluffy.  So Fluffy is probably incredibly happy.  We’ll miss her – LRN2 won’t be too thrilled to know about her re-adoption – but we’ll all be fine.  Farewell, Loyal Snake!

Other news.  Hmm.  Nothing’s coming to me right now.

Oh, my new app is fully functional in what I’d characterize as an advanced alpha form.  All the functionality is there, there may be a slight bug or two in edge cases, and there is no icon or splash screen yet.  I still think I’m on track to get it released in another week or so.

The weekend will be a tough one for programming, though.  As possibly mentioned before, we’re going with some friends to Half Moon Bay on Friday and not coming home until Sunday.  LRN4 has requested that I refrain from programming during the vacation (gasp!), so I think I’ll leave my trusty laptop home.  I’ll take the iPad, though.  Of course.  Also my iPhone.  Of course.  So I’ll struggle through somehow.

And that’s about it.  I’ll leave my Loyal Readers with this shocking food violence news: Mr. Whippy van hijacking!

See you tomorrow.
