TenThousandHundredThings

My life is filled.

1. still trying to keep up with learning new video games in my spare time. Lately I've been trying Katamari Damacy (love it); Max Payne (not great, but somewhat compelling); Parappa the Rapper 2 (sorta fun in a freakish kinda way); and Frequency (really dislike it, but the remix mode could be as fun as GarageBand, maybe).
2. C graduates with her doctorate tomorrow. Family in town, parties, etc.
3. Wrapping up loose ends (aplenty) at my tech job in C&I. Just got the Alienware laptop back from its 6 month repair ordeal. Am currently arguing with Apple for a replacement for a dual 2.7 PowerMac G5 that's been out for repair for 2 months now. Closing up shop for the summer, so I have all the documentation to do in case I don't get the job next Fall -- someone has to figure out the job, and I won't leave it as messed up as it was left for me. And of course there's the regular cast of problems and user drama.
   
4. Gotta write a few conference proposals by June, because after June I won't have time to write them until Fall -- and they're due August 1st.
   
5. Creating signage, name tags, printed program, and swag for the GLS conference June 14-16th. But have to get it done by the time I leave for camp.
6. Planning and ordering stuff for summer at Flying Moose Lodge and trying to generally get ready for that.
7. And, work on three different Augmented Reality game designs.
   

• working on one for the GLS conference that I describe on the ARgaming blog here
• working on one for the Greenbush neighborhood that I describe on my Love site here
• working on one for Flying Moose Lodge that I describe on my Love site here

To top that off, I've sublet my apartment and am looking for a roommate for Fall; I've just recently built a nice bench for our deck out of recycled deck boards (they were going to the landfill, but now we sit on them); I've been shopping the thrift stores for patio furniture to replace the stuff that our landlord threw out (I suspect the table was "rescued" by someone, because it disappeared before the trash guys came); we have to put in the dock sections that our landlord's people forgot to put in; etc.

etc. etc.

I'm busier now than I've been all semester.
