Pelican Cluck Bubble Pop
All those ever considered becoming invisible say “Aye”.
What it is that it is, to be so, is what I am right now. Invisibubble. Reminds me of Hubba Bubba chewing gum, classic strawberry flavour. Or Grape. I once had an Apple Cider flavour which I didn’t want to consume because it tasted so good. So I kept it for years, until it was stale and rock hard, “saving it”. Eventually I flung it at a pelican and didn’t see the bird move again. Ungraceful savages. Granted, I did hit it in the head with an audible “cluck”. Whoever had the idea to drag the remnants of a penguins geriatric oil rag and couple it with a cellulite filled plastic bag? Called it a Pelican. O.o Blegh.
Which brings me full circle to “The Family”. AHOY! We have postponed travels to justify leeching off the government, to the government. Also, because we said we’d be in Broken Hill for Christmas. Notably, we aren’t there yet, because we’re spending time with The Family. Nathan’s Mother loves pelicans. She clucks at them more than she clucks at Blair. The maternal cluck. Never has another persons attempt of genuine empathy made me want to physically vomit, as much as The Mother’s Cluck. (There is a previous entry on this from some time ago.. but I’m too damn lazy to link it here.)
I have some Baileys and Bailey’s Cabernet out there.. wonder if 4pm is too early to start on it.. I mean, it IS a Sunday. No one is allowed alcohol except The Matriarch. She has yet to arrive. (That being Blair’s Great British Grandmother-mightier-than-thou) She audibly complains that she hasn’t cuddled the baby yet. You can’t even hold your glass up and you want to cuddle the what? Ho ho ho… no. Jumping Jahoovers! TO THE INVISIBUBBLE!
SWOOSH!
COMMENCE COUNT DOWN SEQUENCE! fivefourthreetwooneINVISABLE.
“Of COURSE she can have Ice Cream dear.. Salty? Well she isn’t here now is she.. when she gets back we’ll just have to let the ignoramous know how good it is for five month old babies.. yes we will.. we will.. Darling will you stop fondling the baby and let us crowd around closer? Thats the way, completely overwhelm her, thats how they break their spirit in the military.”
Of course the invisibubble is not of my making. It is my metaphorical nook when I arrive here. They shove me in when I arrive. It’s easier for them to cope that way. But it’s difficult to ignore someone in the midst of being castrated for harming my child. Tis a fragile thing.. this bubble. It does not hold me well.
Fuckers.
I made use of the vocabulary today.. ‘Complacent.’ Which is rather apt.. considering.

Bugz
I found a bug with clicking category tags or author tags. It’s supposed to sort posts by the relevant tag but instead it was returning all the pages, worst of all no-one told me. The only way I found out was when I went to filter my own posts and nothing changed.
Please if you find any bugs here let me know so I can fix them up..I’m only more than happy to :)
Anyway it’s fixed now..weehee
I should be writing documentation for ACAN 3.0 instead of this but I just thought i’d let you all know the issue has been solved. Yes I passed my Learners test..pssh 97% (1 wrong)
See you on the flip side.

Long time no see
Sorry it’s taken so long, I’ve been keeping myself busy lately working on my folio and generally trying to steer myself back toward more web/application development. I will admit it’s been a hard road as usually with all of my projects I will begin development and once I workout how to get over those first few large hurdles which the project is usually created to showcase, I get bored by the rest of it and will usually stop developing or deliberately procrastinate.
It’s my vice as a developer and creator because without completed work you can’t showcase anything. It’s like designing a car engine and then having no car to put it inside of, obviously your engine isn’t going to show its potential because there is no solid real-world example it’s merely prototype.
So what’s on the go you ask? Well firstly there is PHP Parrot which is an all purpose quote manager utilising my AJAX based scaffolding library ‘SPASM’ it’s intended for people who want something fast and easy to install so I’m worried that people won’t see the real potential of the backend code driving it. Also there is ACAN 3.0 which I haven’t really begun as I’m waiting on Muz to start writing the spec and his been extremely busy as always. I can see the future now, many many late nights ahead and more Skype conversations than you can poke a stick at…agreed Muz?
Aside from that I’ve been coding templates for various people one of which will be used as the base of a web application though I don’t think im at liberty to reveal details of that just yet.
Away from web development I’m reading on Object Oriented concepts using university literature handed to me by Konza with supplemented video lectures. Very interesting indeed and I think it’s starting to all click finally.
In real-life ™ I had an eye test recently and learnt that I have astigmatism as a result I have since purchased new glasses which I will be wearing anytime I’m not at the computer and maybe soon while driving. Yes I’m finally going for my Victorian license..haha
A few issues with certain family members have arisen too so anyone who has a moment to prey for them I’d much appreciate it…I don’t think prayer needs names, does it?
So all in all I’ve been keeping busy and I’m really sorry to neglect any long time readers but rest assured I’m not dead yet touch wood
Till next time,
Take care.
