17 May 08 The sweat of my brow.

Man it’s getting hot. I take back everything I’ve said about being ready for Summer. The days of a sunburned nose and neck and burnt palms from the blazing hot steering wheel are returning. On the other hand, the one with some skin left, finals week has arrived and the semester will end shortly. I’ll be taking some Summer classes to get easy credits out of the way and I’ll hopefully be enjoying some good quality gaming this Summer.

My pre-order for Aaron Hillegass’s updated book, “Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X (Third Edition)”, has finally shipped. It should be here within the next week and I’m really looking forward to grasping a more solid understanding of Cocoa. I’ve also been reading “Getting Things Done”, by David Allen, which is an extremely useful read.

I haven’t really had the chance to make any huge progress in GTAIV, but I’ve made it to the second safehouse. So far this game has been an epic experience. The story is very immersive. So far, I wouldn’t call it a 10, but it’s definitely at least a 9 in my books.
