Ouch.
I just received a bill from the IRS for some $23000 or so in taxes for a year in which I spent 8 months unemployed. Thanks government. I'm sure you need the money to promote democracy and the such, but all in all I'd rather have not lived in fear of losing my house.

Not much of note.
I added code to the auto-sizing font so that it may now belong to a group. Groups of auto-sizing fonts will use the smallest font of the set. Quite useful for menus and sets of buttons/labels/etc where things look funky if the fonts are different sizes.

Oh, and I ordered a new [a href="http://www.ne…

Sound progress.
I worked a bit on the sound code tonight and earlier in the week. Added a bunch of sound classes which erm... make no sound. Included:

Silence - Takes a TimeSpan, and behaves like a sound object of that length with no actual sound.
Sequence - Takes two sound objects and ensures that they play one…

Meh!
It continues to surprise me the lack of time for hobby projects now that I'm working and socially active. I even am pretty lazy about housework and those sort of home ownership projects everyone else seems to do. I have no idea how more normal people stay sane with even less time to relax (due to k…

Progress!
Mouseover decorator complete, and the little menu bits I wanted to do (provide a 'close if click off menu' mechanism and something which auto-positions a menu so that it doesn't get spawned half off the screen). Took about 3 hours, and would've been much, much faster if I didn't misuse my own inpu…

Moe updates.
More moe work this evening. I finally got around to making a widget I've been looking to make for a few iterations to get to. Mainly because it's a pain in the ass. I wanted a decorator which would automatically resize a font to fit the rectangle and text it was given. (optionally within some range…

Meh. Holidays
I dislike most people. I dislike how much effort I need to spend in not offending them, being cordial, like-able even. Worse yet, I dislike holidays which are not of my religion. It's work enough dealing with people's craziness without adding in faith. Meh. I'm glad it's over.

In better news, I snuc…

Ugh

Ugh

Last night I had free so I was determined to go through and knock up a good looking window widget (border, background, close button, title) for the UI. What did I do? About 6 games of SupCom. Which is odd, since I was kinda tired of the game, and I hate people online (I'd not played online until la…

Progress Update.
I have a bit of time today before chores call to work on Moe stuffs. So far this morning I've fixed a bug introduced by the aspect ratio change, added elementary theme support, added EndHover, MouseEnter, MouseLeave events and double click support. I also found out that the Hover was broken (since …
