+I made a bit of progress on my code tonight. Maybe my current lifestyle has me
+coding better on weeknights than weekend evenings? It's been a long time since
+I've had a dayjob that's as physically tiring as chasing around a toddler.
+
+I built a ring buffer to store characters (not strictly necessary now, but
+should be useful for my game), and I can't actually tell if it works right now.
+The emulator's debug mode is somewhat useful, but I need more ability to
+examine arbitrary regions of my program's memory (which also isn't necessary
+right now, but eventually I may need to work outside the zero page and I want
+to get used to it). So before I can actually finish this, I should add code to
+let me do that.
+
+I also need to get my head around relative vs. absolute addressing. The docs
+have left me with some questions that can probably only be answered by hacking.
