It has been a good day ... away from the computer.

Yep. You hear that right. Many hours, no computer. Yes, I'm feeling alright; I needed this!

I've spent so much time parked in this chair at this computer ... I had to get away. So we ate, then went to a local dessert/liqueur bar called La Dolce Vita. Had dark chocolate gelato (kind of like ( Read more... )

Well, I almost feel human again. Yay me!

I am done with that module I was working on. It's missing a cutscene, but I have until 12 midnight tonight to update it.

I'm getting ready to go on a photo shoot -- well, I won't be the one behind the camera, but rather I'll be operating Photoshop to do printing right there on site. This kind of fell in my lap after my employment with the previous company ended ( Read more... )

Since I am tired of the miasma that my life has become, without me knowing where to start on anything, I have started with the Getting Things Done school of organization. I've bought the book, and am about a third of the way through it. It has already started affecting my life in small but positive ways ( Read more... )

This past Monday I had a meeting with the W company's Vice President of Human Resources -- basically what I wanted to do was present my side of the story, as I outlined in my immediately previous postIt went about as well as I could expect. I went armed with a two page outline of what happened and the backstory involved. I had everything I ( Read more... )
