Triumphant return
Um. Yeah, so I'm still like alive and stuff in case you worried. Some random thoughts follow.

The Game Developer's Conference was awesome. I will definately try to go every year if I can. I'll talk more about specifics later (I have to write an essay about it for the scholarship thing, and I'm lazy enough to not want to repeat the effort).

I will be graduating before too much longer. I don't know the date off hand, but its a monday so I presume most of you will not be coming. Thats fine, but I do not do this often. So I think some celebration is in order. I can throw some money at the thing. I was thinking it might require say, some gold label(lookin to andy on this), nice cigars(amish), some poker perhaps, and a location. This will probably be our own thing. I think my mom is having some kind of party for me too, but I think it will be different, um, thematically so to speak.

I've been playing a game online lately. I think it would be a good game for us to hang out in. Though I'll listen to dissent(I might ignore it). Its about pirates. And you do things via puzzles. So its like Cap'n Hook vs. Dr Mario or something. Its java based which means a few things. First, it will work on PC or Mac(tim). Also, it has cartoony graphics that are pretty cool but not demanding so any old machine should play it(dave's crashotron though I guess he didn't have the space). And you can install it and play it with less than 100mb of space. Oh and I hear that its even quite playable via dialup. So it seems like it could hit the lowest common denominator, and I think its damn fun. Me, Teresa, and Morgan have all started playing some. And, I'm happy to note that Teresa and I just purchased our first ship. So if you would like to join, we can pirate and maybe even see about taking over an island for ourselves. See: Puzzle Pirates.

I have to do a couple more electronic music pieces. One of which is to feature my rewired shit. And I was thinking about how Tim said it would make a good soundtrack to his writing thing. I was thinking perhaps we should kind of reverse-engineer that. And perhaps you could do like a spoken word kind of thing on the track. Its a thought, oh and if you are in on it, it might mean that I would need you to come to campus for a night or two to help me do a live performance thing. Let me know...

Last but not least, I will be returning home tommorow for spring break. I have some things I need to be working on, but should be free most evenings. I will be home for two weeks, so you should seek me out for the fun making. Now, I seek foods.
