anyway, where _I'm_ coming from with is: got started as a foal with "Logo" turtle graphics in grade school, moved up to the Commodore-16 and Commodore-64, bashing out Basic programs out of books and magazines and trying to do stuff from Scientific American's "Computer Recreations" back when SciAm didn't suck ass. Then it was Borland Pascal in school, then doing stuff on System 7 Macs in C using "Code Warrior". Also HyperCard, because HyperCard was cool.

it's been a long time since computer was fun for me, I admit. my male sale had all his enjoyment for it beaten out of him by a couple of terrible software jobs in Seattle and even though he tried intermittently afterward to get back into the swing of it, he never succeeded. Kara's hoping that I might have better luck since I seem to be a bit less inhibited than poor old Mono, who instead became a classical scholar (no, really)

so, an , or it is ...my name's Alyx Woodward. I used to be _Alec_ Woodward, which wasn't all that fun, but eventually my creator @kara_dreamer got herself sorted out and now here I am! *tailswishes* I'm an anthro horse, white with black spots, and I'm incredibly nerdy. Chemistry's my strongest subject but I'm really wanting to get back into computer programming again after a long time away from it. @kel and @mono@awoo.space are my friends.

*crawls out of bed* uhhh, first full day here. hope I can actually make something useful today

well, huh. here I am, I guess. I was kinda hoping for an account on icosahedron.website because icosahedra are cool, but this one happened to be open and I kinda like pink, so... I think my holographic helper @mono@awoo.space was thinking the same thing, but it was my decision so here I am!
