Gone North to Slay Dragons, BBS

I took care of my nearly two-year-old nephew today, and that was a ton-load of fun.  There isn't much else to say about the day, except that I did some Skyrim too, and it was fun continuing the game and slaying some dragons.

I think the best part of that experience was finishing off a boss undead with a slow-motion firebolt before my flame atronach could do it for me.  Or a similar experience shattering a skeleton up against a wall with the same means of destruction.

Oh, and my wife has a job.  Just waiting on a background check and the end of vacation stuff.  That's the most exciting thing, really.  It's good, and I'm happy.

That's it for the day.  Have a good week peeps, maybe we'll talk later.

Impromptu Holiday

Today was a party day.  Family friends arrived, my brother and his family came over, and my newlywed cousin and his wife came over.  We had good food and good times hanging out, and I enjoyed it a lot.  I am a bit tired, now, though, being introverted and all.  Hopefully tomorrow I'll have some time to spend alone and work on writing or some such.

Also, I have a third reference, so I can start doing a lot more applications!  That's really exciting.

About Ashes of Silver, by the way, if you don't have a credit card and you want the book, just message me on Facebook or Twitter me or something similar and let me know, because sometime soon I am probably going to be ordering a good number of books to sell in person around the Allegan area.  Also, there's the bonus that you can get it signed (if you want).

Like I said, I'm pretty tired, and I can't think of much to talk about with writing today.  I think that's the way things are gonna go when I'm busy, at least until I can get into that routine I said I should get into.  I set my alarm this morning!

But I slept through it.

Maybe if I got to bed before midnight I can do that better.  But I still have that college-kid compulsion to squeeze as much of the day as possible from the end of the day instead of the beginning.  Silly me.  I'm more focused in the morning anyway, I think.  I repeat, I think.  I don't know.  I do know that I tend to do my more involved blogs in the morning.

I also know that I've done my most prolific writing between midnight and five in the morning.

Third Time is Still Awesome

I'm gonna go see Avengers for the third time tonight.  It's not too many times.  I'm still super excited about it.  Also, chicken fries.  And good friends I haven't seen much of for the last four years.  Summer is getting exciting in all the right ways.

No, I'm not gonna think about job applications and resumés and writing projects right now.  Still capitalizing on my break.  For now.

Interdining Bloggery

I'm eating pizza with my in-laws.  Today consisted of not very much, though I do need to finish up a resumé for job applications.  Need to reference how these things are put together.

Yeah, I didn't practice resumé writing very well in college.

That comic I was working on yesterday?  I lost all the figures I had drawn at one point and had to redo all of them.  So much work.  But I think it's worth it.

After-college life is weird.  Maybe it wouldn't be so weird if Rachael and I were all moved into our own place, but then again that would be pretty weird in and of itself.  These are the first days of the rest of my life, as it were, and it's kinda messing with me.

I'm not buying Diablo III.  If someone wants to get the game for me, I'd be "eternally grateful," but otherwise I'm not gonna be playing that game for quite a while, if at all.  But that's okay, I've got Guild Wars 2 to look forward to.

So freaking worth it.
