Super longer than expected chat with Fred this morning trying to figure out how to make flash rotate an object around an arbitrary point. I may end up solving it by putting my movie clip inside a movie with the registration point where I want it to rotate. I think I just thought of a way to do that without adding any apparent complexity to the objects. I was hesitant to do it before because I've been taping together with bits of code this whole thing that is only staying intact by luck and grace.

I don't have the chat available right at this moment, but I may put it online later.

Not late

1:55pm JST Tuesday 6 March 2007 (day 13495)

As I was chillfully eating lunch, I looked up and was all, "oh shit!" when I saw to what time it had gotten. If I had to start at 2pm today, I'd be late. I start at 2:20.

Work

11:04pm JST Tuesday 6 March 2007 (day 13495)

Tough day today, though not as tough as it could have been. I started at 2:40 due to a level check no-show after being scheduled to start at 2:20. No cancellations, no late students after that, but a 20 minute break at 7:40 to 8pm.

at home

Back at home now watching Michael play God Of War, a pretty visually and aurally exciting game; I wouldn't play unless it were a full body suit immersion game where I can climb and jump and do all sorts of fun things. That would be pretty cool, actually. The suit could have feedback mechanism to make it feel like I was climbing, or to make me actually use strength to make a difference. Would be really cool exercise.

But just pushing buttons? Like on a keyboard? No way. Not for me, thanks!
