I was able to take the little pill. Instead of risking choking on the bigger capsules, today it took probably about 5 minutes to open them up and put what was in them in a cup of yummy strawberry-flavored Yoplait yogurt. I guess I'll have to start doing this every freaking day now. It turned the once yummy yogurt into a mix of deliciousness and putridness, probably because I was afraid that the awful tasting pill gunk would make the whole thing taste bad, which I didn't want to do.

After that, I tested my new version 11 on a real Odyssey 2. It didn't work. So I made it work by rearranging what I had in the last bank. Odyssey 2 programming can be real fickle sometimes. You just change 1 line and it completely breaks the entire game. My problem was the game kept looping the "CEDAR GAMES" intro over and over and never going to the title screen. So after attempting to rearrange what I had a couple times, I finally made it work.

This freed up some room so I can hopefully fit the man-saving idea I had in. But from prior experience putting this in, I forgot about what happens when characters overlap, so I have to be real careful with that. As a result, I'll make it like this: If you touch the man, it gives you points. If the enemy touches the man, it subtracts points. Both times the man would disappear from the screen.

They're still remodeling my neighbor's house. I keep hearing machinery going in the place.
