A busy, busy week

February 26, 2008, 11:17 am

Without even getting into the three weeks of heavy crunch, getting ready for the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco, the week of GDC was pretty jam packed - I didn’t get time to see the expo until the last day. But it’s not exactly an E3-class expo, so while interesting, it was easy to take it all in, in an hour or so. I got to meet a friend;

Then it was home Friday (missing WonderCon, which was right after GDC - booo!), turn around and fly to Calgary. Spent the day doing last minute prep for Andy’s stag party, which included a struggle to get my Xbox talking to Live via a Telus ADSL line, printing and laminating a dozen fake backstage passes, setting up a full Rock Band rig, and then keeping everything running smooth while consuming more and more Strongbow.

Overall, it was a success, though Andy was a little worse for wear the next day. Which could also be regarded as a sign of success.

Mmmm. Cheap thrills.

I discovered today, that if you apply chapstick with peppermint (most of the beeswax ones have peppermint), and drink chocolate milk, you get the sensation of drinking milk that tastes like an After Eight mint (without all the super-sweetness.)
