Feeling good about work. I think I’ve been cranking pretty well, and tomorrow, (yeah, I know it’s Saturday) I’m gonna go in and clear out all my bugs, and make some improvements to the in-game stereo system. It’s weird, though – nominally, that’s the entirety of the work I need to do until Wednesday of next week, but they want people in this weekend to do stuff for a big demo next week. I suppose I could get some stuff done on the early side, but so much of what I’m doing is waiting on art to be done, it’s sort of hard to say, yeah, I can really get ahead. Maybe I’ll clear out my bugs, and start working on this idea I’ve had for a bit. Could be interesting.
I miss having unfettered weekends, though. Sure would be nice to work more regular hours, but I suppose we’re in alpha crunch, I shouldn’t expect much. We’re gonna be pretty hosed in the next couple weeks, due to the art lockdown, and the following code lockdown. But it’s nice to know that we’re at least approaching the finish line. There’ll be *lots* of tweaking, and such, but I think it’ll be relatively straightforward, and nothing’s gonna jump out that’s too surprising.
*crosses fingers*
Spent some time last weekend clearing rocks out of the front yard. Yeah, it’s sorta strange that they’re there, but there’ve been rocks all over the front yard for a year or so due to the construction that finally finished up. So now the front lawn is (relatively) free of rocks, and it’s probably time to start figuring out what to do about it, landscaping-wise. Be interesting to see what we can come up with that’s relatively low maintenance.
Mobius is doing well. Ei-Nyung has taught him (mostly) to squeak his squeaky ball on command, which is cute. I’ve gotta figure out something to train him to do. I was thinking maybe I could get him to turn the lights on and off, so that he could keep the house lit, as long as he’s interested in staying awake. That’d be sort of funny.
Neck’s sore. Slept on it funny, and the right side of it feels like a steel cable running through my neck. Hopefully, that’ll clear up soon, ’cause it’s pretty unpleasant.
On the iPod: 2503 songs, 6.9 days worth of music, 9.75/20 gB used. I thought I’d ripped like, 75% of the music I have, but after a reorganization, I’m actually only at about half. Yatz!
