I'm not dead, just busy. Add that to the fact that it takes FOREVER to get Movable Type to post an entry, and updating becomes more of a chore than a pleasure. Here are a few quick update.
As of yesterday, Inklog is functional, though very unusable. As time allows it'll get closer to completion. I'm not entirely happy with how certain parts of it work, but I figure, working poorly is better than not working at all. For those who are interested, you can read more about my design goals.
Jess' friend Mel came to visit us this past week and a half. We went to Deep Ellum, the StockYards, Sundance Square, the Dallas Nature Center, Eagle Mountain Lake, and Six Flags Over Texas. Needless to say, we were very busy and I had a great time. Despite the fact that Jess hates having you around, Mel, you are welcome in our home anytime. And if you ever want a hook up with Mr. "il est beau", just let me know.
My French is getting better, though those who speak the language might disagree. Having Mel around helped a lot as it offered a different perspective into the language itself. Additionally, hearing her speak to Jess helped with my comprehension. We never did have our "Journeé du Français", but we will someday.
