Snow: The Last Word

From Hogblog. I can't quote any of it without just spoiling the entire joke. Go read it right now.

A quick update

Since several of my friends have had posts about their productivity lately, I just thought I'd mention a couple of things I've accomplished:

Some tidying up, including getting much of the unsorted kipple off the table in my study and straightening up some of the piles of detritus elsewhere in my study.

Dealt with a sick rat (who will get better) and a dead computer (which might or might not). Also kept ahead of medication demands for four other rats and our kitty. And cleaned a lot of rat cages.

Snovelled show. Err, shovelled snow.

Caught up (for limited values of "up") with one of my high-volume game mailing lists.

Got my sound system, which had been in the shop since before Christmas, hooked up again, and reprogrammed all of the radio presets to deal with the fact that WLIR ceased to exist three weeks ago.

Sold an article to Games Magazine about eBay and finished a separate review for them, too.

Wrote a design spec for an entire cell phone game from scratch. Not an original game--it's the sequel to one my company published last year--but the game play internals are completely new and, I think, improved. Started on a second spec which I hope to get finished in a week.

Now I'm off to Long Island for my (often) weekly gaming session. Am in such a hurry I will not type most of this paragraph before hitting "Post Entry".
