Book Lernin'

Bought myself a new book this week.
Going to be working myself thru Programming in Objective-C 2.0.
I have the ebook and a whole pile of videos loaded onto my iPad and am going to work my hardest to push through the book and finally learn something.

I've worked a bit with PHP and DOS batch files, and SQL, but I've never touched something that wasnt a scripting language.
I'm really trying to wrap my mind around objects, and if they work the way I think they do, I should be good.

Did I mention I'm a Sci-Fi fan?

Anybody else watch Stargate Universe?  Didn't think so.  I swear I'm just about the only person that watches that show.  I seriously liked it and am pissed that its canceled after this season.  I liked the characters.  I enjoyed the plot.  I liked the added drama and how dark it seemed compared to SG1.  Don't get me wrong, I loved SG1, but it almost turned slapstick at times.

But at least Firefly is on TV again!  I think its on the Science Channel?  I was flipping through last night and found it, awesome show with so much potential, too bad its gone.

How much worse can it get?

I'm almost afraid to look at the news anymore.
Every time I do, its just more horror coming in from Japan.
Tens of thousands now missing, entire towns gone.
A nuclear plant possibly melting down, its all just so sad.
As much as it saddens me to see, I am refusing to turn away.
The only thing I can think of that would be worse than experiencing this tragedy would be to experience it and have no one notice.

I'm Just A Nerd

Title says it all.
I'm just a nerd trying to make it in this world.
I have a room full of computers that I'm constantly rebuilding.
I'm not a gamer, but I play Minecraft.
I prefer cartoons over sitcoms.
I'm 28 years old, engaged, and NOT living in my Mom's basement.
I am always working to improve myself and discover new horizons.
