Deliberately lazy day, regrouping and clearing my head from the whirlwind of the preaching class. I didn’t try to fend off the backlog of mail or links, but I didn’t let it get any worse. Watched Goldfinger (Pippa and Margaret love James Bond movies) and read most of Beyond Belief by Elaine Pagels, which I’ll be reviewing for the Trenton Times. I’ll ask my editor if I may reprint the review on the Disseminary “reviews” page.
Tomorrow I have to get back to work, but it felt good to give myself a day without obligations.

When Clark Kent saw a news story getting too hot, a phone booth hid his change into Superman. When you're programming, all the variables you juggle around are doing similar tricks as they present one face to you and a totally different one to the machine.

Those new variable types I promised last lesson will finally make an appearance, and we'll examine a few concepts that we'll use to organize our data into more meaningful structures, a sort of precursor to the objects that Cocoa works with. And we'll delve a little bit more into the fun things we can do by looking at those ever-present bits in a few new ways.
