Another update, mostly on job prospects
Not a whole heck of a lot going on with me recently. I was not hired for the ViaWest job; they sent me a politely worded rejection letter through the US mail ( Read more... ) -
I do to you now the enormous hurt!
This evening I was sort of surprised in to playing Mechaton, the table-top strategy game built of LEGO bricks. I was in a sort of blah mood to start with, and after we built our armies we went to Dairy Queen for ice cream since it was 10PM. Mike was on a sugar high and kept noting that these rules seemed awfully complex and confusing as I read ( Read more... ) -

Status Update
I've let August slip away with only five entries here. Here's hoping September will see more frequent updates.
Many many things have happened since I last posted. Let me explain.
No, there is too much. Let me sum up.
( It seems likely I'll have a good job soon. I'm excited for a local anime convention the weekend of the 11th. I've helped craft some new furniture around the house. There's a new plan for the game store: website! ) -
Coffee Story
Drinking coffee at IHOP last night, I was reminded of a story Mike's dad, Ray, told. Ray is a world renowned geophysicist, though you wouldn't know it to talk to him ( Read more... ) -
Writing Accomplished
I did get Chapter 4 of Colony Beta written with time to spare Sunday. I'm not sure I meant it to be only about Kevin, instead of half Kevin, half Jen & Paul, like the previous chapters. I'm happy with it though. Will I start switching off? One chapter for Kevin, one for Paul & Jen, until they either meet up and split up, or another group is ( Read more... ) -
In lieu of fiction
As previously mentioned, I have some writing to do. I cornered Alarin and nailed down the plan for the coming short stories week, figuring out which needs to be written still. All I have to write is another character introduction for Ex Machina, like Doc Winnen's intro. Everything else for next week has already been written. I'm glad we have ( Read more... ) -
Realization Dawns
Another fortnight has gone by at AlterniaComics.com. Five long-form stories updated, followed by five short works of fiction. In getting ready for the next round, I realized I have to have the next chapter of Colony Beta written by midnight Monday morning (the midnight between Sunday and Monday ( Read more... ) -
It seems like a good time to say something
I haven't been very vocal online for a while. This entry may get sort of long and rambly; I'm not quite awake at the moment.
I've been tweeting more since I culled my Following list on Twitter, but mostly I've been busy ( Read more... ) -
A couple of things I have learned recently.
For a long while, I was going to bed around 11 or midnight and waking at 8:30, for not reason other than that's when the alarm went off. This week my schedule slipped. For one reason or another I was up until after 1AM Tuesday morning. The alarm went off and I made myself a cup of coffee. Then I was up until after 2AM Wednesday morning. The ( Read more... )
