yes, i know, i should be setting up my bedroom.
instead i'm at a coffee shop near my house, getting some work done on my blogging script for the first time since i took the bar almost a month ago. [!] i had almost forgotten how nice it was to just sit, puzzle through a computer programming problem, and eventually solve it. i guess that's one nice thing about being such a novice programmer...every new little bit of code i add to my program feels like a major victory. this morning's little victory? getting the program to check to see whether the computer is connected to the internet. if it is, then the program allows the user to start blogging. if not, it informs the user that they are not connected to the internet, and tells them to connect before trying to run the program again.
it's such a simple task...but it feels so good that i figured out the proper syntax for telling my computer to do it.
