Back at It

It’s definitely been a few days—had to take a little break from coding because I was out of town. Actually hit up two different places, so I ended up being away from my computer for a while. Hard to get into the groove of working on stuff when you’re not at your desk, y'know?

But now I’m back!

Today I’m planning to dive into a couple of projects. First up: there's this really old website for Final Fantasy XI that I’m breathing new life into. The plan is to turn it into a modern React app instead of just plain HTML and CSS.

(Also, side note—my cat is going absolutely nuts now that I’m home. Pretty sure she missed me.)

Second, I’ve been working on a pipeline optimizer for Odd Sparks—which, if you haven’t heard of it, is this charming little automation adventure game. It’s like Pikmin meets Factorio, and I’m kind of obsessed. Played it a bunch before I left and I'm ready to get back into it.

Oh! And I’m also toying with the idea of making a better Markdown previewer, plus maybe adding inline voice dictation for writing blog posts. I think I mentioned that before in an earlier post—but yeah, seems like a doable side project.

By the way, the images on these blog posts? Made using an AI pixel art generator. I’ll drop a link at the bottom if you wanna check it out. It’s super simple—just throw in a few prompt words and you can get some fun little sprites or even full-on scene art. Been having a blast with it.

Anyway, I’m exhausted. Time to crash.

Later days!
