Cold Turkey
I’ve decided to give up soda, cold turkey. I’ll probably also be either cutting WAY back, or quitting Taco Bell all together too.
The decision has taken some time to come to, but in the end it has to be done. I finally realised that I’m getting older, and crap like that just sucks the energy [...]
RE: Carpal Tunnel Sucks
As it turns out, I do have a pretty bad case of Carpal Tunnel. Not only that, but I have arthritis in my fingers….
I must be getting old.
Anyway. I’m sporting dual wrist braces now, which are a pain in the ass to sleep with, and I’ll probably be getting my first cortisone shot in a [...]
The Fireplace Dilemma
Our fireplace doors broke a little after Winter ended, and I’m only now starting to look into a new set.
Trouble is, I want to use the fireplace to heat our home, but now I’m hearing that fireplaces can actually make a house COLDER.
I’ve wanted to get a wood stove insert for a while now, but [...]

This past week I’ve been showing some seveare symptoms of carpal tunnel. The pain and numbness was constant at first, but moving back to an ergo keyboard has helped a bit. The pain comes and goes, and it’s bad at times. I’m trying to get in to see a doctor ASAP, and in the meantime [...]
It’s Been Awhile

Connecticon was last weekend, and it was a pretty good time. I got to play some new games, prototypes, and demoed some Tremorworks stuff. I also got a signed sketchbook from Hawk of Applegeeks, and a signed CD from Bob Picardo (the doctor from [...]

Here’s to hoping it becomes a full time posistion, but right now I’m just happy I have a job again.
Unemployment Update
Yes, I’m still unemployed. Yes, it really sucks.
I’ve had plenty of interviews, but no bites yet, so I’ve decided to take a few measures to help ease things.
1. I’m getting my PHP 5 certification (ZCE). My course starts September 9th.
2. I’m freelancing. At least, I’ve signed up over at freelanceswitch.com in hopes to find something.
3. [...]

Feet by rkalajian on Zooomr
Just got back from a beach vacation with the family.
Good times.
Shake Up
Things have gotten a little shaken up around here, and I’m about to become very busy.
While I don’t really want to go into details, much of my time is now going to be spent doing two very important duties. I hope to keep up with my writing and game design, but for the moment those [...]
New MBP
Yes, it’s true. I’m now the proud owner of a brand-new Macbook Pro.
