As much as I always want to be right, it’s not always that pleasant when I find out that I am. Or, in less cryptic and more painful words, I’m single again. Part of me wishes I’d never been optimistic. I bloody know why I shouldn’t. I didn’t need to be told again.
You know how, no matter what, people say it’s all going to be allright? I’m past that. Sure, there’s always hope, but once you even have to get into “it’s going to be allright”, you know it never quite will be, don’t you? That’s life for you. Given the circumstances, I’d saying I’m doing fairly well, but I could be doing a whole lot better.

Because .be’s are free for a year, SourceForge.net offers free VHOST hosting, and ZoneEdit.com offers free DNS hosting, the Chirpy! homepage is now available at chirpy.be as well as chirpy.sourceforge.net. I’m not planning on paying to renew it in a year—it’d have to be a Flemish domain name for that—but it’s nice for the time being.
Also, object-oriented programming and artificial intelligence just don’t mix. They throw a class diagram at you and expect you to turn umphteen levels of abstraction from a brute-force algorithm into a heuristic algorithm and still expect you to look them straight in the eyes. Or maybe it’s just me.
And finally, don’t forget 96x96.be is still available, now at version 1.0, to get yourself a yummers MSN Messenger display pic.
