1. In which I talk about weird programming shit:
I haven't fixed teh interwebz the network card driver on Ubuntu yet, so I'm still screwed on that part, but I could install (manually, and downloading them prior on the desktop) the rest of the packages the C compiler needed. So I could finish this week's part on the OS2 practice.
Of course, I had a fright when the chmod() command wasn't working correctly -the exercise was writing a program to change one or more files' permission modes, so it was kinda the whole point- and only the owner user mode would change. Then I noticed there was nothing wrong with my program: it was that I was testing it on my USB key files. When testing it in the home directory, everything worked like a charm <3
2. Oh snap, I DO have manga to buy urgently!
I'll probably go this afternoon after class to get one single volume of something that came out last week and I totally didn't notice. Now, this is awful because I'm saving for Phantom Hourglass and this fucks it up, but you see: Fullmetal Alchemist #8. Sorry, Link. I MUST buy it. Why?
XING CHARACTERS, BABY. XING. XING. XING. SHEEEEEEEEEEEEN.
I'm not sure if I should dread or look forward to Norma's romanizations.
Also, CAN I HAS NU HAGAREN CHAPTER SOON PLZ?
3. You'd think roleplaying him would shut his voice up in my head:
Please, guys. Tell me it's a bad idea to claim Ushiwaka from Okami in one of those themed fic comms. Tell me I never finish my claims -sometimes I never start them!- and I have too many in hiatus/block now. Tell me I should stop thinking about that jerk and return to the Eriol-tachi to update my CCS WIP. Tell me nobody's going to read them. Mind you, I may write Okami fic for myself and to amuse me, but let's face it: the lack of feedback still depresses me a lot and makes me wonder if I suck.
The thing is I'm only getting plotbunnies for him T____T And I want them out of my head like you wouldn't believe.
