So the time has come for me to admit defeat on blackjack programming. I've had enough of breaking games and then trying to repair them only to break them further. You'd think it would be easy since Virtual Boy programming is done in C, but nooooo. I have to be stupid and not know much about it. I don't think I'm smart enough to program a blackjack game. So I give up.

We're dogsitting again. Our dog attacked my sister's dog. It's so lovely. Or, to put it another way, please kill me. It's only for one night. I am going to kill myself before August when it's six whole days of crap life. Not that my life isn't crap when I have one dog. I don't even like the idea of having animals as pets. I like my pet rock. He doesn't attack other rocks when they're trying to steal his food because rocks don't eat food, which is another good thing about owning rocks instead of animals. And, they never die.

Dodge-it for the Channel F came today. It's a fun little game. The idea is to see how long you can avoid being hit by bouncing squares. I'm surprised there isn't a 2600 version of this idea. I'd make one, but I feel kind of down since I had to give up on my VB program. Perhaps tomorrow I'll work on the Channel F holiday game "Snowman." I have an idea for an intro to it. I am going to make the title screen play "Let it Snow Let It Snow Let It Snow" because it's snowing on the title screen.

I also got another game in the mail today, #8, but I can't seem to make it do anything.
