Sometimes I’m a bit schizophrenic sometimes.

Ok I’m not really schizophrenic, but it gets the idea across.

I know I missed last Saturday’s story, It’s coming along with the new story for this Saturday. Calculus has been taking up all my time so I have to squeeze writing in were ever I can (weekends mostly.)

The reason I say I’m a bit schizo sometimes is my constantly changing of interests. I Write (and love it.) But I also like to program (sometimes.) Even when I do program, I’m not content to program with things I know, no I want to program in things I have almost no experience, like Objective-C or Python.
So I want to program this and that in Python, something else in Objective-C, maybe a few things in C# (eh), Some web programming with jQuery (Yay!), maybe update some things in PHP, and somehow tie all of this back to my Writing.

You can see why I have problems finishing things.

Calculus makes me want to do some game programming in PyGame again. I keep calculating velocity and it makes me want to actually use it. I’m no where near the level needed to try a game in Objective-C, plus I like Python.

I’ve also been playing around with my Neuron program in Objective-C. It would be easier to do this kind of program in a language I know better, but I just want to do it in Objective-C because, well I can, or at least I think I can. A lot of the reason is because I need practice if I ever want to develop a game for the iPhone.

I want to write an action/mystery/puzzle solver game, I keep telling myself that I need to write the story first, which is true, after all what’s going to happen as I start building an engine? I’ll need a story to go with it. But that logic doesn’t keep me from wanting to build parts of it anyway. If I really want something to program I still have the Knit Project and DBObject programs to work on.
