Output from the triangles script
For quite possibly the first time in the blog’s history, I present a non-photographic image. This is the output from my new Triangles script. It creates an image by first drawing three points, and then drawing a line from the third to the first, but going beyond it, then drawing from there to the point two points back, and so on and so forth. With the right settings, the straight lines all sort of dissolve into giant curves.
So we went about moving our cat Boo to the new house yesterday, and that turned out interestingly. We managed to get him into a cage, very much against his will, and bring him over. Now I just have to try and get him used to being here, but he seems to be getting acquainted pretty quickly.
In fact, this morning I woke up to find him missing, and assuming my dad had let him out, went into a little bit of a panic searching about the new neighborhood for him. In the end, it turned out he’d just gone back to his old hiding place, the cloth on the underside of our couch. Now he’s taken to his old habit of sitting in front of my monitors atop my desk with a vengeance. So far he’s nearly shoved just about everything on my desk off of it, and taken up my mouse wrist rest with his own rest. Now he’s finally settled down in front of one of the screens, with my keyboard, thankfully, only hanging a little bit off of the desk.
So yet another post without photographs: I’m sure I’ll get around to making some in the near future. I’ve taken to looking for internships lately, and have one in Sarasota that’s looking pretty potentially great, just have to hope I get in. I’ve been working on my PHP and MySQL lately, too, so I can do some work with web apps over the Summer.
We’re mostly moved into the house now, and I’m getting all nice and settled in. I’m right up by Cortez now, so I have to get used to everything towards the South, and try to stop going to places towards the North, as much as I can. Other than that, not much of anything to write about. Just trying to keep the words coming, hopefully I’ll have more to go on about next time, with some photographs to boot.
Just in case anybody ever reads this, thought I’d post a quick update. I’m home for the Summer, and I’ve been busy moving into a new house. Pretty cool place, and the kitchen and lounge are straight out of the 70’s. I’m now the proud owner of a golden clock with no border built right into a wood panel wall, adjacent to a kitchen with blue cabinets and drawers…at angles. Now I just have to go about getting everything settled in, and all will be well.
School is finally over, all my exams done, and it’s time for Summer. I’m sure soon I’ll have all kinds of wonderful exploits to put up on the Interwebs (I’m definitely trying to figure out how I can attach a strobe safely to a water bottle rocket), but for now I’m just relaxing and enjoying being home. It’s amazingly comforting just to be able to watch TV and see the usual local commercials again, instead of the weird crap they have in Orlando (creepy asian guy screaming about appliances? I’ll take Bay News 9 any day). Now to go enjoy not having to wake up for school in the morning…
