I’ve recently added a simple breakpoint list widget to nemiver, and a few other minor things. Dodji’s added a few cool new things lately as well, including showing the value of a variable in a tooltip when you hover over it. There’s still no release yet, so you’ll have to pull from svn for now if you want to try it out.
This weekend Joanne joins me at the ripe old age of 29, so we have a big party planned. Happy birthday Joanne.
Also, I’ve finally gotten around to gimping up a disembodied head for myself. So if the powers-that-be would like to install the following image as my spokes-head on planet GNOME, feel free.
We had a doctor’s appointment this morning, which involved our first ultrasound. We’ve been trying to avoid as much of the medical birth industry as we can, and do things as naturally as possible (see the Bradley Method), but we decided to do an ultrasound anyway, and I must admit that it was pretty fascinating to see it moving around in there. It looks like it’s probably going to be a girl. yay!
I also stumbled upon a ticket for today’s playoff game between Minnesota and Oakland. My boss had a couple tickets but his friend got sick so he had an extra, which meant a half day off of work for a baseball game. Unfortunately, the Twins lost the game, but I still got my first taste of live playoff baseball, which was a blast (though the sheer volume of the noise in the dome left me with a bit headache).
Ahh, it’s my favorite time of the year again. Trees turning color, leaves falling, weather cool enough for a light jacket, etc. This past Wednesday, we had a day outing at work where our whole group went for a canoe trip down the St. Croix River just northeast of the Twin Cities. It happened to be just about the only sunny and rain-free day of the week, so it was a good time. Nothing like getting paid for a day of leisurely canoeing with beer and grilled food on a sandbar along the way.
Joanne seems to be finally past the morning-sickness stage of pregnancy, so life is a lot easier around the house, at least for the time being. I’m also feeling a lot more like cooking lately, which is good for both of us. I generally really enjoy cooking good meals, but I don’t get the urge nearly as much in the summertime. I guess that’s another nice thing about the arrival of Fall.
I’ve starting hacking quite a bit on Dodji’s GNOME debugger Nemiver lately. It’s coming along quite nicely and is fairly usable already (not that I can claim much credit for that). Now that there’s a gtksourceviewmm release it should be a bit easier for others to build as well. I’m also planning to make a new release of Agave very soon as well, since I’ve gotten a few new translations lately. If anybody else wants to send a translation my way, feel free.
