Night before Christmas

Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house, Liam was sleeping, quiet as a mouse. The stockings were hung by the fireplace with care, in the hopes that Santa would soon be there. This year Tara, Liam and I are spending Christmas with Tara’s family in Vancouver. It actually marks the first time […]

Chilling in BC. I think we're about to do some Christmas shopping and then, well, something else 🙂 Nice to be not working 😀 # Powered by Twitter Tools

Christmas Party

Today we had the whole gang over for our Christmas party. It was a good opportunity to see everyone in one place. It’s not something that we really get to do that often.  There was a fair amount of work put in to get it all sorted and done, but it’s effort that’s well worth […]

Liam's new thing: Putting things in other things. He's been carrying around a 'bucket' to put things in, happiest kid ever # I know IP addresses have to be faked on TV, but could they at least pretend: 38.214.012.23.1.8 At least none are above 255…but really! # "Sketchy Santas: South of Heaven Lights" http://t.co/I4yq3JKt via […]

Lunch Time Demos: Hard Reset

Another indie title this time around, makes me wonder if I’ll just be doing indies, not that it’s a bad thing, but it’s a thing.   Hard Reset is an action packed FPS from Flying Wild Hog, and it’s currently selling on Steam for about $30. As far as FPS’s go, it’s pretty typical. You […]

Lunch Time Demos: Serious Sam Double D

I have some time to kill at lunch, and there’s no better way to do that than play a game or two. This week I downloaded the Serious Sam Double D demo and played it through. If you’ve never played any of the other Serious Sam games, let me sum it up for you: You […]

In Reflection

This is only the second time I’ve been able to complete NaBloPoMo, but it’s the third or fourth time I’ve tried. On the whole, it seems like an easy task: Blog once a day, every day, in November. Who can’t do that? But on the times I’ve failed, it’s because I’ve forgotten to do it. […]

Frogman

Because I sometimes have troubles getting started with this stuff, I’ve now turned to random stuff. Frogman is pretty random. It also reminds me of Liam. We took him swimming for the first time in the spring. It wasn’t a long swim, but it was fun. It took some time for Liam to warm up […]
