Vacation's Over
Well, I probably wouldn't have minded another week of time off, but I'm starting the new job today. And while I wouldn't have minded the week off, my bank account will no doubt appreciate me getting back in the saddle. The indie thing doesn't pay the bills for me yet.
I didn't get nearly as much done as I'd... well, I won't even say that I hoped to do, because I knew the target was unrealistic when I set it. But I did get some serious gaming in. I have another post pending for Wizardry 8, as I got a lot of time in playing that one. The combats are admittedly pretty time-consuming, and so I find myself with hours having passed enjoyably by, but without much to tell about it. I also made a HUGE mistake (and I knew it was a mistake when I made it), and bought the Twilight of the Arnor expansion for Galactic Civilizations II, and I also started reading another Harry Dresden novel. They were mistakes because I knew how much time they'd suck out of my life. Yet I still miraculously found time to work on Frayed Knights, go to the Timpanogos Storytelling Festival (well, one evening of it), and party with friends on Labor Day (yesterday) - which included watching the first Harry Potter with the RiffTrax commentary (one of their better ones, IMO - very funny!), and playing Rock Band.
So - yeah. Gaming Happened. What did you expect?

Harry Dresden ftw! I snap them up the minute they hit the shelves, one of my favorite series.
Glad you got some good relaxing time in Jay. Enjoy the new job.

I think I'm gonna finish this one tonight - and then not touch another one for at least a month. They are just that dangerous!
I'm enjoying the new job so far. First day and all. It's weird to work at a place that has a FORKLIFT now....
