Semi-Work Day

Things were kind of, sort of done, although no real actual writing was accomplished. A bit of shopping, an interesting prospect of continuing work on an existing project (heck, at least that’ll pay the rent…) but most intriguing of all, an offer of a freelance job. From IGN–#1 gaming geek site–of all companies. Of course, I’m going to say yes. After reading these guys for years, it’ll be nice to actually add them to my resume. And who knows… If they like the work, maybe they’ll give me more. I only pray future work (should it happen) doesn’t entail E3. I’ve had quite enough of that, thank you very much…

Also, the Wife now has a silk screen for making T-Shirts. For people that absitively, posolutely gotta’ have limited editions or collector’s editions, this means that I’ll be wearing T-shirts you will never, ever see anywhere else. The Wife is also spending most mornings by the window, mumbling “Mail truck… mail truck…” in anticipation of a Really Big Ass Scanner that should have gotten here by now, and somehow ended up being beaten to the punch by knitted sweaters that were mailed from the same place on the same day. I guess even the postal service doesn’t want to hold onto knitted goods any longer than they have to, but maybe they’re scanning shots of their bottoms at drunken office parties, much as photocopiers have done in days of yore.

And on a less happy note, I’ve just realized that it’s been well over a month since I had a serious sit down, thrash session with Guitar Hero 2, since The Rest Of Our Stuff is still not here. It amazes me just how much I miss that damn game.
