More writing
This week has sort of been fuzzy. I didn't mean to end up in Seattle Wednesday night, and then stay through Monday, but there was an invite for board gaming Wednesday evening and inertia kinda kept me here.
It's been a lot of fun though, and I even managed to finish the second half of the revision of the secret project.
I also helped playtest phoenix_hawk's board game, still in the alpha stages. The rules were in a constant state of revision as we played and addressed issues he hadn't thought of in the design stages. The underlying concept seemed to be fun though.
He also brought over a Wii game: Dokapon Kingdom, touting itself as "the friendship destroying game!" and living up to it. I found it strangely fun, and may pick up a copy when I am once again gainfully employed.
That happens to be a convenient segue to news that the tech job search has not yielded any interesting results yet, but I have an interview with RadioShack next Tuesday, June 8. On the one hand, it's RadioShack again. On the other hand, it's a paycheck...
Also, Stephen Moore in this week's Doctor Who? I was giddy over that for an hour after the show. So giddy that the episode's ending didn't quite bring me down. Moore is best known in my mind for several voices in the HitchHiker's Guide Radio series, including Marvin the Paranoid Andriod, Gag Halfrunt, the Whale, and The Ruler of the Universe / The Man in the Shack.
