So I missed a day…
And so it’s already tomorrow on the east coast. I warned that the posts weren’t guaranteed to be packed with life lessons or interesting tidbits. And even then I forgot to even pull out my phone yesterday and at least post a “Sup”.
Oh well. The craziness continues. Went out to SWK this weekend. Kinda on a whim. But it’s always nice to make the rounds. As always just wish there was a little more time to spend with everybody. We really only have about 20 waking hours out there on a weekend and about twice that would make the whole thing a little more laid back from my perspective. I just always feel like I’m neglecting somebody.
So now it’s off to bed. A super busy week with Thanksgiving coming up and everything. Gonna have to scramble to get everything done in a short amount of time. Yay, Holidays…
Up early
I’m getting today’s blog out of the way early since it’s AUCTION DAY! It’s a big project we’ve been working on at work that all comes to life today. So it’s going to be nuts and I might not get to the internet for the rest of the day.
I put together a whole new auction website this year using Google Sites. It’s over at eagleradio.net, just click the auction banner. And if you feel like bidding on some stuff, just check the item listing and give us a call during the hour it’s on!
Here’s to a super quick day!
EDIT: Oh yeah! You can listen to the auction online too at the auction site.
Nothing to blog.
There’s seriously nothing to blog about today. But gotta keep the streak alive!
Getting ready for the big radio auction tomorrow, that’s going to be nuts. Then off to a play as soon as that’s done. Should be a nice reward after a long day like that. No break in between though. I hate that feeling of being rushed from one place to another. I know once I’m in the seat though and enjoying the show, I’ll all be good.
Here’s hoping for an uneventful weekend and time to get some stuff done in life, not work!
Days too short
Well not only is the sun going down earlier… it just seems so much harder to get something done after work. I went to the store, watched some Big Bang Theory, tinkered with an old radio, and really don’t feel like I made much progress on any of them.
Now it’s midnight and I should have gone to bed a long time ago! Me needs a weekend! Or better yet a vacation!
Recommitted to Blogging:
Hey, I’m back! Seems like I’ve been neglecting the blog lately…. guilty. I’ve had a lot to write about as of late, but I’ll be honest, lately when I get home I just feel like being completely lazy. My time spent at home recently has been more sparse these days, and when I’m not sleeping I just want to be totally passive. Nothing really to be proud about, let alone blog about.
I’ve been looking at the blog here lately though and really want to get back into writing. I love being able to go through the archives and look over stuff I’ve posted here in the past 6 years almost. I feel like as time goes on, there’s going to be a big hole in these personal chronicles and that kinda bugs me. I’m not getting any better at remembering things as the days pass, and there’s a good chance that if it doesn’t land here, it’s going to be gone forever once I forget it.
So I’m making a 90 day commitment. I’m going to be blogging every day for the next 90 days. I can blog from my friggin’ phone now, so there’s no excuse.
Lots to talk about so hold me to it! I’ve got the new GoldenEye 007 game for Wii. Minecraft will absorb as much time as you throw at it. And work has been crazy, but rewarding.
See ya tomorrow!
A few more Guild Wars locales.
I haven’t posted one of these in a while. Gotten back into Guild Wars again recently. Lately as I’m going around I’m taking the time to appreciate some of the scenery. The artists and designers really created some breathtaking stuff. Well breath taking for a 3-5 year old video game anyway.
The original Guild Wars: Prophecies is over 5 years old. In the video game world, that is ancient. Still... the original has some of the most beautiful and detailed scenes. Sometimes in places you walk by all the time. Here is Old Ascalon City.
Autumn in Ascalon.
The second chapter: Factions is most people's least favorite out of the three games. However I find the world to be absolutely beautiful. Most of my favorite scenes come from Guild Wars: Factions.
Plauge or not, living in Kaineng City would have to be just people living on top of people. Some of the towing structures are towing shacks that look like they'll topple if you look at it too long. Others are quite a bit nicer... like this one.
Heck, this is just the login screen.
Waterfalls are always cool. And there's no shortage of them in Guild Wars.
I don't want to go in there... do you? I have a feeling that's not a fluffy rabbit hole.
Gateway to Istan from Guild Wars Nightfall. How do they even imagine awesome architecture like this?
I’m Kind Of A Big Deal
You’ve gotta love some of the “titles” you can earn in Guild Wars. Amongst being “Not Too Smelly”, “Slayer of All”, and a “Drunkard”. I’m also now, “Kind Of A Big Deal” (Anchorman inspired). So I’ve maxed 5 different titles. Of course there’s 40 possible titles… so there’s a lot of folks that have done a lot more than I have.
Supposedly things like this are supposed to contribute somewhat if you decide to link your Guild Wars account to the upcoming Guild Wars 2 game. The more stuff you have in your “Hall of Monuments” the better goodies you’ll get upon the launch of Guild Wars 2. To what extent it is worthwhile, remains to be seen.
For now it’s just been kinda nice to have time to play Guild Wars again. But to be honest, now that I’ve achieved KOABD… I think I’m going to get back to Final Fantasy XIII. Haha!
09.29.10Blog from the pocket.
Blogging from my phone. Trying this out since maybe it will help me ignore the blog a little less. We’ve been doing a major software upgrade at work, and its pretty much consumed my life. It’s been somewhat of a disaster until recently. Starting to finally get things squared away. Andrea was getting grumpy with me putting in long days for about three weeks. But this week I’ve been getting home at a fairly reasonable hour. Basically I’ve come to the point that I realize that the job will 100% consume my life… if I let it. Don’t misunderstand. I love my job, but I also love Andrea… and occasional sleep. So for now I’m getting as much done as I can in a reasonable amount of time, and making sure we stay on the air. No matter how fast things get done, it still needs done yesterday.
I have not abandoned
It’s just been nuts lately. Plenty to talk about. No time. I’ll BRB.
Concerning the Norn:
They were straight-faced vikings who felt superior to humans and who took honor to the extreme in Eye of the North. Now they’re the goofball drunkards who take honor to the extreme in Guild Wars 2? …So they’re dwarves, basically, but 9 ft tall.
