Another month has passed in which you have been spared my output. Take refuge dear readers, the reprieve ends now!
Although I may have been idle these past weeks, the rest of the world was not. Busily churning out quality content for your benefit and mine, here are a few of the things that have drawn my attention:
Wil Wheaton has been having a lot of fun with his revived podcast Radio Free Burrito. Besides his acting and writing talents, Wil has an ear for music and other interesting sound bites that he peppers throughout his show. Definitely worth a listen.
My withdrawal from tabletop gaming has been difficult and painful. It’s absence consumes my waking thoughts and has left me a sour, mindless shadow of my former self. Dragon Age has helped ease the suffering but it is a temporary solution at best. I require creative output to soothe the savage beast within and DMing a 4e campaign right now would hit that sweet spot like the fist of an angry god.
I’ll be at PAX East at the end of March. D&D 4e? Mouse Guard? Like a desert Bedouin who stumbles out of a dust storm and into an oasis, I shall drink deep. Also confirmed for the show are notables such as the aforementioned Mr. Wheaton, Jonathan Coulton, The Protomen and 60,000 of my close, personal friends. I’m really looking forward to this show.
Last month I was trying to re-allocate some space between two partitions on my desktop and ended up losing one of the partitions entirely. Let me tell you, friends, data recovery is a bitch and she kicked me right in the balls.
There was some talk about a new device from Apple, but nothing relevant materialized. That’s really all you need to know.
I’ve been enjoying Steven Erikson’s Malazan series so I decided to delve into Gleen Cook’s Black Company, which apparently served as inspiration. Rest assured that I will inform you of what treasures (or traps!) are discovered.
I picked up Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes for the DS on Tycho’s recommendation and let me tell you that I have not been disappointed. Considered a mix of Puzzle Quest and Critter Crunch, it has so far provided hours of puzzle role playing fun.
That is all for now, until I next breach the surface to breathe in your salty air and expel what morcels I can offer.
That metaphor fell apart somewhere along the path from my brain to your screen.
I trust you can handle it.
