My computer at home for some reason has major issues with DVD Studio Pro and Compressor right now. Since I was putting together my DVD reel I ended up using remote desktop to my old work computer (first informing my friend who still works there of course), uploading files to my FTP, downloading them to [...]
A while ago I bought one of those drinking birds to have around my desk at work. When I was in high school I bought one when given the opportunity during one of my science classes. Tragically that one met with an accident that ended in broken glass and chemicals. My current bird is still [...]
Actually of the games on that shelf I only have Mass Effect 2 right now (got both games at great prices due to various sales). I’m not actually interesting in Oblivion, kind of interested in Fallout 3 and a little bit more interested in Dragon Age. Even though I’m not super penny pinching right now [...]
I hate hate hate dealing with anything money related and also official documents. Even after I know for 100% fact that everything went right part of me is still convinced that I did something wrong.

Then we made the steam [...]
Or it could be having a sense of obligation to beat video games you already own before purchasing new ones, and having those video games be really boring. Also I’m coming off of my two week vacation where I did a fair bit of gaming, but when I’m done still had time to do other [...]
I know from talking to friends that it’s not just me who has someone in their office who spends more hours in the office than anyone else yet accomplishes a fraction of the work everyone else does. It’s only worse when they complain about having too much work to do or stand around doing nothing.
This past weekend I was in Boston visiting my family, seeing my sister’s second baby and playing a lot with her first. The thing about being in a house which has a 2 year old is that you wake up EARLY. Okay, for a lot of people it’s not really early, but part of their [...]
I have a very packed RSS reader with 30+ subscriptions in it. I’d say a dozen of which have lots and lots of updates during the course of a day. I use NetNewsWire for Mac OS X which has a feature that displays the number of unread articles in the dock whenever it refreshes. For [...]
