Sorry for the lack of stuff to read today. I needed to take the day off to get into the great outdoors and see how the other half lives. So that was done (Street fair! Don’t ask for pictures as I just went to see and eat a little and relax and not worry about being all social networky and such). I also ended up going to the movies after stumbling across a theater, so that was a good ending to the day. This week’s a doozy for meetings (Pepcom tomorrow evening and a few other meetings later in the week), so some days I’ll have a lot of posts, some days maybe one or two at best. I still need to grab a copy of Hyrule Warriors, as I meat to pick it up on launch day but forgot my gift card (oops!) and didn’t have enough cash on me to buy it outright. Oh well. That will be one of the things I get done sometime within the next seven days. Okay, back to real life. See you all tomorrow.

A Day Off, A Day Late…

Okay, I hadn’t taken a day off in AGES, but Saturday I decided to do just that after making a few mistakes that meant I just NEEDED to get out of the home office. I did finally wrap up End of Serenity earlier in the day (actually VERY early Saturday morning) and started my review, but I was feeling a bit burned out from playing until Z o’clock, there was also a small freelance gig I needed to wrap up and I also had to rewrite a product review I’d started a while back that I accidentally deleted and turned into another post thanks to copying and pasting a document into the wrong Edit Post tab not realizing I’d overwritten the wrong post until I closed all the tabs and remembered that I was working on three things at the same time, not two as usual. Bleh.
So, I decided to tackle the easiest thing (the proofreading gig) and close up shop for the day. I ended up going to see X-Men: Days of Future Past at an overpriced theater in NYC close to a spot where I used to live and afterward, poked around some shops and into the old neighborhood to see what’s changed since I left so many years ago. Quite a lot, it turns out… but there were also some things that stayed pretty much the same. One constant: a LOT of tipsy people roam the streets on a Saturday night. I wasn’t one of them, however. Anyway, I’m back and will have a few posts up later today. Off to sleep for me now. I needed that little break!
Ssssh… All’s Quiet on the Western Front…

And in the East? Silence. North (Look up!) and South (and down!)? Yup? Tumbleweeds and a chilly wind because you looked down first, then up (Oops. Pay attention next time!). Anyway, as noted previously, I took today off to do some personal stuff, so there’s nothing thrilling to report because I was not near much tech/game/movie/toy stuff online to keep me otherwise occupied. I’m back now, but won’t fire up the brain box now because I need to be fresh and toasty for the return to Toy Fair and it’s happy madness on Tuesday. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to curl up with a bad movie and pass out in front of the TV. Back tomorrow with actual interesting words…
