Gearing Up

Today is an auspicious day.  Least, I think it is.

Exactly one year ago today, I started a new job after an eighteen month stretch in Unemployment Hell.  And it's been one amazing, frustrating, tiring, exciting, unbelievable year.  "My new job" has now officially graduated to "my day job," and one that I hope to stay on with for a while yet.

It has also been thirteen months since I posted anything in this blog.  God knows there's been plenty of stuff going on in the industry that I bloody well could have gotten off my ass and put down at least a few words.  But with the launch of Armchair Empire's new site, I suppose it's time to get back into the habit.  The day job pays the bills, but the games industry is what stirs my passion.  And very often my bile, my vitriol, and other humors that are likely caustic in nature.

The blog has been on hiatus.  It is now off hiatus.  Here comes the voice of outrage, skepticism, and impassioned concern for the games industry.  And there goes the neighborhood.  Again.
