This week (and my apologizes)

I must admit I have not been all that attentive to my blog as of recently due to actually getting to sleep at a reasonable time. Each night this week I've gotten about 7+ hours so its a start in the write direction. Though I am finding myself to be sleepier at work which is odd that you think with more sleep you would be less yawny and dozing off and such. Now looking back on it I think I've been more awake with the less sleep I got but who knows that's just throwing something out there. This will be the typically blog post but going to skim over what happen yesterday along with today to not make the post too long winded...so here we go.

Yesterday I had my first release and I had not realize that a certain field would play a role so part of the morning was spent tweaking the form and correcting an error I made in my script. There was some good news however as it wasn't a major form so there wasn't a store being held up or taken down as a result. Definitely a plus. Once I got home played some HoN and watched some SC2 streams. Also found the entire play list of di.fm for eurodance which about 60% of the 10 gigs found its way on to my MP4 players...quite magical I must say. Read another chapter of a new book I had sitting in wait (48 laws of power) then rested soon after.

Today wasn't too bad either no releases but there's no plenty of stuff to work on. I have to admit the demand of work is definitely increasing as there's now only 2 team members on our team (that work specifically on the stuff we were working on) but hopefully will get more soon otherwise this might be a bit nightmarish. I'm starting to have back thoughts of working another corporate job but with IT (lol typed it that way on accident and leaving it that way) being the norm in this career path can't be helped in some cases. I will be considering playing around in Unity soon to see how it handles game development. Have to start somewhere and grow from there. Either that or work for a small company but that wouldn't be for a while from now.

Not much else to say for this evening, oh ya last thing. I started coming up with ideas of a board game carrying case I'm considering making. Its main component will be wood and would hold boards for games along with cards, tokens, dice and etc. There is another alternative that I found on board game geeks which is this.

It would be fantastic for card games but as for the actually boards themselves, not so much. I could have a carry bag I bring along with me that holds the boards but I would rather have one on inclusive device that could do it...so here's what I drafted up.

The top bit is basically the bottom layer with 2 pockets on each side (mainly for holding card decks) while the bottom is a drawer which can be used to hold board games. The middle image is more of stack of pocket tiles which could be used to store cards and other misc items. The last image is the top which basically would hold it all together via a strap or some other mechanism. Just brain storming at this point and open to ideas of course :).

Well that's officially it for now la ta!
