I must be boring!
No-one's posted any comments on my LJ for aaages.
Anyway, today goes down in my personal history as The Day That The Eeeeevil Hairdresser Murdered My Hair. The decided they'd cut *four times* as much as I asked for off it - *8 inches* they cut off. I am Not Happy about this, although I've got more used to it than when I first worked out what they'd done. At least my hair still looks okay, and it still counts as long, it just doesn't count as exceptionally long any more. 67 cms. (it never was over a metre long, we worked out.) I think it'd still do the style in the picture on here, just about, although it doesn't extend further than that any more.
In other news, I got Talia to talk to aivas again!!! It was just a matter of hunting down all the connection speeds and taking them down a few notches. So that's veryvery good, and changes the day from 'disasterous' to 'okay', 'cos now we don't have to send off Talia to be fixed and all that mess.
I guess I probably have to think of an interesting question to ask everyone if I want answers. ATM I'm trying to vaguely kinda learn C (at school, with the compiler on my Psion, when waiting for exams) and Python for Stairwell. It's not helped by the fact I vaguely know what to do in them - just enough to make tutorials boring, not enough to skip half the tutorial or actually do anything useful. I've thought of a question that oughta get some comments - what language ought I be learning, and why?

Personally, I like C++ in general, or perl/awk for string processing type stuff, and python for interactive messing about with ideas (eg. testing COM objects on windows).
Lots of people seem to be scared by C++, but it's fluffy and cuddly really. Most of the tricky stuff is just in there for people writing the standard libraries, and you don't have to worry about it.
