“Bonsai”


I’m working on a new cocoa app. It has the working title of “Bonsai” which will more then likely change if the app ever sees the light of day.

It’s still in early stages of development. I’ve fleshed out a requirements list for the 1.0 version and have got the basic app working. It’s a matter of fleshing it out now and making it cool. I’ve also got some pretty cool idea’s for it after 1.0, so I’m keen to actually get this app out in the wild.

I’ll post more as progress is made.

*Note: No, this isn’t the icon for the app, i didn’t even make this image. Its from an icon collection i downloaded. I just really like it and thought it would look cool with this post.

Edit: The author of the icon is actually [Jonas Rask](http://www.jonas.seph.ws/). He does some nice work.

Allergies

My nose is still playing up, gets quite annoying actually. Seems to just start in the morning and run continually all day. I took a zyrtec pill this morning that seemed to have little / no effect, even though i took one the other day and it seemed to work.

Its annoying how its so random, sometimes a pill will work, other times it wont seem to do anything. I go through a heap of hankies when its like this, I’ve actually started using tissues simply because they are easier on my nose. It hurts when you start rubbing the skin off your nose from blowing it.

It’s so random that it could be pretty much anything that it causing it as well. Dust, pollen in the air, food I’ve eaten, something i drank, the guy down the road who is cutting his lawn… who knows.

Makes it hard to concentrate as well. Every few minutes I have to stop what I am doing and grab another tissue. Not fun at all.

A good thing though, I’ve started using the eucalyptus and aloe vera tissues. They are heaven on a red raw nose.

Makes me want to dust / clean this flat out in the hopes there’s something here that’s causing it and will make it stop. I don’t have much hope of finding a cause though.
