VIRTUAL HOUSE!.. AGAIN!

So sometimes, despite best intentions, things don't go as planned. I mean, I'll gladly accept responsibility for slacking off in the middle of the week last week. The call of team fortress was just too great for a mere mortal like myself to ignore. But this weekend was supposed to be 48 hours for hardcore internet stomping (with several hours of that dedicated to sleeping of course).

But alas, it twas not meant to be.

Regardless, I did a little... Not as much as I would've liked but you've gotta take what you can get.

That little was redoing the template for virtual house mk. 2. Its almost done, which means a semi-functional virtual house is just around the corner. And then, when that in place, we won't need real housing anymore. We'll live in the internets, farming datastreams and living off the blogosphere. If I was less tired I'd totally write some poem about it.

I didn't announce I put the site up?

... Looks like today is an easy post for me then!

I put the site up.













Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand on the site admittedly there's not much there at the moment, but I'm adding new stuff regularly and building momentum until somehow I become some kind of unstoppable internet force. So at the moment:
-There's my first game Capitalist to play (emulated from the Amiga 500).
-There's this t-shirt browser thing I did.
-There's basic functionality.
-There's a forum (with nothing happening in it).
-There's a wiki (also with nothing happening in it).
-There's a secret hidden easter egg.

Anyway... check it all out here.

Also, hello to my first commenter that I don't actually know! To be honest I'm taking it with a grain of salt as I'm sure you're just a bot and you're just going to start spamming me with investment offers... But I dunno, even that would be kind of special. I'm promoting you to my "No. 1 fan" position.

Things that stopped me from being very productive over the weekend.

- The movie 'From Dusk Till Dawn'.
- Being social.
- Being a socialist.
- Upgrading my computer and having parts not work and have to be replaced.
- Having the replaced parts also not work.
- Having a newly upgraded computer and a stack of games that wouldn't work on it previously.
- Freaks and Geeks.
- This really sore neck/back I've had all day.

I've done a little, but not enough to show anything off, so please except this hastily editted picture!

Punk rock ain't dead, it's just recycled.

I didn't really plan on doing this. I just figured I should have a second shirt there, just so I could have some interactivity.

So tada! The browser is here. Everything still needs more work, but its up and that's a start.
Tomorrow night I'm going to try and drum up an article, I haven't fully decided on what. I saw that GameCareerGuide did a feature on why comic book games suck... So I might do something on that considering I like comic books and have now even had some experience working on one.

Anyway, that'll do for now I think. Good night!

Tshirt browser blues.

The plan tonight was to have this all done. Originally I was just going to find a basic t-shirt template on the net and just paste in the designs... But that was all a little less than spectacular, so instead I decided to make my own kind of t-shirt browser deal. Sure, I only have one T-shirt up at the moment, so I could put it up and claim the lack of interactivity is intentional, but that's cheating.

Anyway, this does look a little better than the original plan at least. Still needs some tweaking etc but that'll do for tonight. Pig.

I'm not used to filing

The plan has adapted! Take note!: I'll be attempting to post everyday and put up at least rough working of what I've done (or at least, rough excuses of why I haven't done anything). It also means smaller posts and less rambling fluff.

But not today... Today is about catching up. Today is the midseason clip show version of this blog. And today, we recap the missing episodes of the last couple of months.

So, Imagine this in montage form. I had a job. Then due to internal industry-giant dickery I lost a job. I purchase some webspace. I get another job that's basically the boss of my old job at a different company. I put some stuff on my webpage. I buy a tiny tiny laptop. I clean my room and refile everything. I race NASCARs and fight nazis on the moon. And then, the music wells up and suddenly everything is moving in slow motion and I'm typing on this blog.

Where does this leave me now? We'll in a pretty good place actually. My new job isn't necessarily better than my old one, but it has its advantages. Considering I've basically been promoted over the course of less than a year though, I'm willing to count it as a win. My previous New Years resolution is looking a bit broken, but considering that was only part of getting a job, and here I am now all jobbed up I guess its not too bad. And I at least managed to post once per month so that's something too, right?.. Right?

Todays picture is the relative hotspots of my room at present. I figured if I was going to put so much effort into cleaning it all I should at least keep some photographic proof.

Punk Rock Ain't Dead...

And neither am I, baby...

(Also I really wish they'd hurry up and release Rock Band here).
