Flew to LA and back yesterday for work. Plane was delayed by more than an hour on the way home. Annoying.
And I apparently managed to leave my driver's license in the grocery store, which I discovered in line to check in for the flight. I carry my recently-expired one and it worked out fine. But a bunch of small stuff turned out to be extra stress. That was one.
I got to have several conversations I wanted to have with my director of engineering, who is a very busy guy. Well, okay. "Wanted" is a bit strong. I had several conversations that I felt a strong professional compulsion to have, and now they're out of the way.
The Kickstarter I'm watching obsessively has hit its second stretch goal, and looks like it *miiiight* hit the really awesome stretch goal where the game studio and Julian Casey get together and record 20 (!) more mini-episodes of "Uncle Jack" in the game, alongside the original 32. Fingers crossed.
I'm sifting through a few different tile-based open-source games and learning how these things are put together. Games are surprisingly involved. Doing them right is hard. Interesting stuff.
House: still not burned out. Still basically clean. Fridge: still bachelor-level barren of most perishables. Need to stock up again. And make soup again.
Hope you're having a good day!
