And now some updates:
Thoughts on a Champions character
For one of my recent stories getting a character back in place, I created a new antagonist, Mister Blasphemy.
A quick update!
I’m back on the East Coast, and so is my wife! That’s a positive. After February’s little Medical Adventure, the realization we had no support nearby really hit hard, so moving became an idea. When both of us became unemployed a month before our lease renewal, it became a plan. And now it’s mostly accomplished.
I’ve written a few things, and hope to do some more. I’ve also turned one of my other sites into an online resume in case someone googles my name, so they find that, and we’re just moving onwards.
Life’s changing. It’ll be interesting. And unlike so many other changes I’m not alone, and that makes it easier to take.
Mahalo. Talk to you soon.
Covers!
Now that I’m back East, I expect to be gaming again. And since one of the Systems of Choice is Champions, a superhero game, I decided, hey, I have pictures of characters… let’s make covers of the issues where they return! (Or show up for the first time.) Click to continue reading.
Live Demo – a Eiko Takashima story
It wasn’t unheard of for the CEO to come down to the labs – she’d cut her teeth in research, everyone knew that – but it had become more rare in recent months as she had been working on a big project. But word came through the grapevine she was coming down to what everyone called the “Pie in the Sky Lab”, a lab that worked on the really crazy ideas.
Moving on
It’s been a while, hasn’t it? Here’s what’s up.
Been through a couple jobs, with various levels of strain and difficulty. I got fairly ill in February.
And that told us that it was time. We don’t have much of a support network here. We need better. And so we’re going home. We’ve discusses it from time to time, but now we are doing it. Leaving Seattle and going back East. It’s just time.
We’re going by train – which some of you may recall I did before, just the other way – so expect photos and commentary on the trip.
See you soon.
We’re going home.
Reworking parts of my resume.
I decided it was past time to get my resume up to date. So as part of it, I also redid the infographic that I made as part of it.
Just a thought
Last night after getting home from work, sitting on my bed with Emma and eating Indian food, I realized that summarized the changes in my life over the past year.
And it’s great.
Happy birthday.
I have not, in the past, been a big fan of April Fool’s Day. But the past two have been different.
Because April 1 is Emma’s birthday.
Meditations on memories.
I did some cleaning today after my doctor’s appointment. (I messed up my knee a bit a week and a half ago, went to see a doctor about it.) In the cleaning there were some flowers that Emma gave me for our demianniversary, which had gone dry and fallen apart. I took the dead flowers, threw them out, and washed the vase. As I did, I thought a bit about why we hadn’t done that before.
