CarrionCrow: Good evening. =)
Doing okay here. Fell asleep for a bit but I'm up again. Stupid chair dozing.
Hopefully your day has been good as well, aside from the huge amounts of work you're having to do.
Well at least you got some sleep, it's just a shame it was at your computer again.
How about a
keyboard bed? :-)
My day has been good, the morning was very busy, but not so bad in the afternoon. Tomorrow and the next day will be a lot more strenuous, but nothing too bad. Hopefully I won't tire myself out before my nice weekend away. My partner came to keep me company at work this evening, so the extra few hours I was working passed quite nicely, so that was good.
adaliabooks: Yeah, I would love to finish something, sell it, and make some money from it. But I just love thinking about game design, ideas for mechanics and how to implement them. And I really enjoy the technical side of programming things too, so even my usual aborted half projects teach me something and are fun. Setting my sights at something a bit more achievable this time though, so we'll see :)
It sounds like all the time is a busy time for you... I hope you enjoy your weekend off together :)
Yeah, we'd have loved to go because we're in desperate need of a break.. things have been quite hectic since work picked up (ironic, considering we had loads of free time and no work not that long ago...) and it's been pretty non stop. But we'll probably manage to sneak a couple of nights in somewhere eventually, just need to find a week where we have three days in a row with out work XD
Perhaps you are just waiting for the perfect game to come along. Until then you are just practising and learning new skills. But as long as you are having fun and treating it more like a fun hobby, then that is good, and makes it a lot more enjoyable for you.
This year has been a busy year for me at work, but it's not too bad, I love my work and would not do any other job. Although I would like some more free time to spend with my partner. I am sure my weekend will be great, just what I needed to help me unwind after the last few months.
Maybe you could eventually keep a weekend free and try not to book any work, that way you could use that free time to enjoy yourself. But I guess it's hard to turn down work during the spring and summer seasons, especially as you are not sure what winter will be like.
ElTerprise: Uhm..I think i'll go to bed now. Just had a short nap in my chair....
So Good Night everyone! *good night hugs and waves*
See you all later :)
Goodnight, sleep well!
