Crazy Busy

I figured that it would be a good idea to get up a little earlier today and get my ass into the studio to work on the 3 games I am assigned to currently and cant seem to make much of a dent in. All said and done the "early start" was a great idea, unfortunately it did not help me to get caught up. I think by the time the clock struck 5:00 I was in the same place "work-wise" as when the day started. Don't get me wrong, I managed to get a TON of shxt done, but nothing that was on my plate yesterday, only stuff that was added today and lemme just say, I am friggin' beat!

Juggler

Having multiple games and juggling them all each and everyday use to be a common trend and really not that big of a deal. Those of us that kicked ass could do it without thinking twice, and most of us still can. The problem is that our games are about 4 times the size and complexity as they were several years ago so its easy to work 10 hour days, 5 or more days a week just to get one out the door much less a handful. I guess I can look at my current situation as a sharpening of my skills since I have not had to do so many projects all at once in a couple years. Nah, I think I will look at it as I have been - a pain in the ass that makes me drink more at night!

Radio Controlled Fun

So I received the email notifications today that all of my items have shipped and are on their way to me, woot! I am stoked that I will have them here tomorrow already and be able to mess with them all over the weekend. Let's just hope the weather is good and that I am not side tracked with other stuff. We need to get the house ready for the new furniture to arrive as well as grade the side yard a little better for when the guys show up to build our new, bad-ass 8x14 tuff shed! I cant wait, I have taken the delivery / build day off and plan to watch the entire process as much as they will let me.

Log-off

That is all outta me for today. I need to get back into a little more of my projects, but not quite burn any midnight oil this time. I have been doing that more than I have wanted to the past few weeks and am putting my foot down this time. I even skipped the gym today and plan to do my cardio and strength training once we get home. That is always a real pain because once I get home I want to have a beer and relax, not workout.

Well I guess those are the cards I was dealt this time and I will play that hand best I can. Tomorrow is not only Friday, but a new day - wonder how much more buried I will get? On the bright side it's taco day at the studio and we are having a dessert contest as well. Cicely is actually making something to bring in for eating / judging - hope she wins!
